JJ MCQUEEN TATTOOS
​
​
What days do you tattoo?
I'm at the shop Tuesday-Saturday. I take most first appointments for the day at 12 pm.
How does the booking process work?
I prefer to start with an email/submission form detailing what you'd like to get done. Please see the form on the form page to make it easy! Next, we set up a consultation to discuss your specifications - especially if you're a new client to me. At the consultation, if you choose to book, you will be asked to leave a deposit to hold the appointment.
How do you price tattoos/what form of payment do you accept?
The shop minimum is $100 and my hourly rate is $160. I price out smaller pieces at the consultation we have and larger work, like sleeves, back pieces, etc., are priced out hourly. Payments that I accept are Venmo or cash.
How much is the deposit and what is your policy?
The deposit is $100 dollars and goes towards the total cost of your tattoo. The deposit is non-refundable and if you give less than 48 hours for a cancellation you will have to put another one down (barring an emergency or special situation). Please communicate swiftly if you can't make your appointment so I can try to fill the spot! Last minute cancellations make it hard to pay my bills and excessive reschedules may result in us not working together.
​
A no show results in a loss of deposit and us probably not working together. There are few exceptions to this as I feel it is a blatant disrespect to my time. Medical emergencies, urgent family issues are examples of exemptions. Unless you're physically/emotionally incapable of letting me know, all it takes is a quick phone call or email!!
My appointment is booked!! what next?
The day of the appointment we will go over your drawing together. Usually a thorough consultation results in little editing, but if there are any, its easier to go over them together in person. I do not send out drawings before hand so please be sure of what you want or open to interpretation that can be edited at the time of.
​
Feel free to bring drinks/snacks to keep blood sugar up! Stay hydrated and please, please don't come in hung over.
​
You can bring a friend but please try to limit attendees to one person as the shop is big but not big enough for an entourage.
Where should I park?
We have two hour street parking around the shop for quick visits. For longer visits there are paid lots on Alamo street, paid parking at Reinke Bros., and "free" (they give a warning before a ticket) parking at the RTD station.
Are there styles you do not do?
Yep! I wouldn't be the artist for you if you're looking for the following styles:
-
photo realism
-
tiny water color tattoos that do not have an outline
-
full geometric sleeves/filler
-
trash polka
-
paragraphs on paragraphs of lettering
-
New school
-
Japanese
​
If you're unsure if what you want falls into one of these categories, please send me an email :)
I also will not work on minors even with parental consent.
