Frequently Asked Questions

You can text me at (978) 245-6889 to book an appointment. This is a text only number, please do not call.

I schedule 1-3 appointments per day Tuesday-Saturday. I do not work Sundays or Mondays.

The styles I am currently tattooing are:

• Blackwork American Traditional
• Heavy Blackouts
• Japanese Traditional
• Heavy Ornamental
• Custom Script
• Cover Ups

I typically do not tattoo in color or use fine lines, but can accomodate depending on the tattoo. My work is bold and dark. If you are unsure of what any of these styles are please look them up or feel free to ask me. If you're unsure if the tattoo you are inquiring about fall into these styles feel free to reach out to me. If it is not something I can do for you I can always recommend an artist whose work matches what you are looking for.

Yes I currently am only accepting appointments for tattoos. If I am traveling for a guest spot or convention I usually leave it open for walk ups!

To book the initial appointment through my calendar you are required to leave a $100 deposit with a debit/credit card. This deposit is non refundable and will go towards the end price of your tattoo. The day of your appointment the shop only accepts cash. We have an ATM on site if you need it.

Please reach out to me either through text (978) 245-6889 or DM on Instagram @blvck.trad

You can check out the Pricing Page to get an estimate on what your tattoo will cost.

The day of your appointment please make sure you eat a good meal prior and hydrate. Feel free to bring snacks or drinks to your appointment as well. Also keep in mind placement of your tattoo and what clothing you wear. I will always work with you in whatever YOU feel most comfortable in. If you are getting an area tattooed that you will be wearing less clothing feel free to bring a blanket or hoodie if you get cold.

No, it is illegal in the state of MA to tattoo anyone under the age of 18 regardless of parent permission. If you leave a deposit online, and you are not of age, that will result in a loss of deposit.

Tattoo Aftercare packs include instructions on aftercare, stickers and business cards of the individual artist you worked with, Blvck Rose Tattoo business card and sticker, and aftercare ointment. If you have any questions or concerns about the healing process please reach out to me or the shop.
