Clients aged 18 or older are welcome to book a consultation via email by contacting manager@triplejscollective.ca, through Facebook, by phone at 867 456 7555 or by coming into the shop at 211 Wood Street (upper level). Consults with our resident and guest tattoo artists are required prior to booking custom tattoo appointments. If you wish to pursue booking a tattoo appointment, please arrive in-person to provide a minimum CASH deposit of $100, plus $50 for every hour booked above two hours. Out-of-town clients may leave a credit card in lieu of a deposit – only to hold the appointment.
Tattoos are billed by the hour, at a rate of $190. Payment for the tattoo service is cash only. Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE, and will be applied to the cost of your tattoo!
A minimum 48 hours notice is required for any cancellations or changes to an appointment.
Failure to provide a minimum 48 hours notice or no-showing your appointment will result in your deposit being forfeited. Clients who have provided a credit card to hold their appointment will be charged the fees based on hours booked (minimum $100).
Reference material must be provided a minimum 48 hours prior to the appointment. Photo Identification is required. It is illegal to tattoo anyone under the influence of drugs or alcohol. We will refuse service if you are intoxicated. Please eat well and be rested.
Be careful with sun exposure leading up to a tattoo. Prior to your appointment, please use sun block on the area to be tattooed. If you are sunburned, we will not tattoo you. When skin is irritated or peeling, it is impossible to do a perfect tattoo. Do not put your new tattoo into direct sunlight, ocean or chlorinated water. We have a brand new, renovated studio available for your comfort. We advise that you wear loose clothing or a bathing suit if you are getting tattooed within the tan line.
HELPFUL HINTS: BE INFORMED BEFORE YOU BOOK YOUR TATTOO!!
All needles used by our tattoo artists are disposable, sealed in sterile bags, used once, then disposed of in a SHARPS container.
All the inks used in a tattoo are dispensed into disposable ink caps, and thrown away after each tattoo.
Triple J’s has been approved for tattooing by the Environmental Health Branch of Health and Social Services, under the Yukon Government.
All needles and tubes are single use, and proper protocols for disinfecting equipment and the environment are strictly followed.
The sensation of being tattooed differs from person to person, and will depend on the placement. Tattoos are not painless – they do hurt, but for the majority of the population, the sensation is bearable. The first 10-15 minutes of a tattoo are typically the worst, and then it can get better as your body releasing natural endorphins which counteract pain.
The main thing to remember is breathing and relaxation. Do not fight it – the more you tense up, the worse it can get. During the tattoo, you will find that some areas are more sensitive than others. It won’t last forever, just relax.
On large pieces, short breaks may be taken. If it hurts, DON’T MOVE, your tattoo is for life, and the pain is temporary. If you move, you will affect your tattoo, as it is very hard to draw a straight line on a moving canvas. We will not be held responsible for tattoos which suffer as a direct result of the client not strictly adhering to our requests to remain still and calm, or clients who do not adhere to the prescribed aftercare from the artist.
