FAQs
Do you accept walk-ins?
We accept walk-ins or same-day appointments when available, but booking via email or our website is recommended. Our artists usually book a month or more in advance, but last-minute cancellations may occur. Follow us on Instagram for updates!
How do I schedule an appointment?
To book, contact your preferred artist directly—they handle their own scheduling. Unsure who to choose? Submit a request on our website with tattoo details, and we'll recommend and forward it to the right artist!
Do you require a booking fee?
Yes, all tattoos require a non-refundable booking fee, deducted from the total cost. The fee is set by the artist, usually based on the tattoo size.
Can you fix or cover-up an old tattoo?
Most likely, yes! We love reviving old tattoos. Some may need laser removal first to lighten. We aim to make every tattoo great! We work harder than anyone else to ensure it is as great as it can be.
Do you tattoo minors?
We DO NOT tattoo anyone under the age of 18, even with parental consent.
What else do you offer?
We have a full Art Gallery with all forms of art from paintings and illustrations, to glasswork and handmade jewelry all made from local Colorado artists. We welcome you to come by anytime during our open hours to view and purchase from our local artisans.
Are tattoos safe?
Yes!! Metamorphosis Tattoo utilizes hospital-grade sterilization throughout the entire tattoo process and only uses disposable, one-time use products. We employ this fully disposable process in order to ensure your safety, as well as the safety of our staff and visitors. We adhere to extremely strict standards for sanitation throughout the shop in order to keep our staff and clients as safe as possible.
How much does a tattoo cost?
Tattoo pricing depends on size, detail, and artist. We don't give quotes over phone/email. Consult with an artist for a quote. Some charge hourly, others have flat day rates. Our shop minimum is $150 for pieces under an hour.
Does getting a tattoo hurt?
Yes, there is pain involved with the tattoo process. The pain is only temporary & far from unbearable. Making sure to get a good night sleep, eat a good meal, and hydrate before your appointment will help. We do not recommend the use of numbing creams, as these can interfere with the tattooing process.
Will my tattoo fade?
Maybe. We provide aftercare instructions and tips to prevent fading, such as always using sunblock on exposed tattoos. Some fading may occur over time, but aging affects all skin similarly.
Does the shop do piercings?
No, we do not have a piercer at our shop and do not have the ability to put in or take out piercings. We do, however, carry a small selection of jewelry. Check out the art gallery for jewelry ideas.
What do you recommend for after care?
You will be provided with verbal aftercare instructions by your artist, as well as written instructions to take home with you, and can always call or email the shop if you have questions about how your tattoo is healing.
What covid-19 related precautions do you take?
Tattoo stations are 6' apart. Staff are happy to wear masks upon request for immunocompromised clients. We prioritize health and safety, following best practices and monitoring health daily. Metamorphosis Tattoo maintains high cleanliness standards, with daily deep cleaning, disinfecting shared surfaces, and providing hand sanitizer and wipes throughout the studio.
