Fill out the inquiry form. If the form is not available, Shannon's books are closed and new projects are not being considered. If your project is accepted, Shannon will book a free consultation to discuss your idea, give a time and cost estimate, and book your tattoo appointment. ​ Shannon only takes on projects that are suited to her strengths and style of tattooing, so please keep in mind that submitting a request does not guarantee an appointment.

After an inquiry form has been submitted and Shannon has accepted your project, she will reach out to book a complimentary consultation. Consultations are by appointment only and generally take 20-30 minutes. These meetings can be done in person at the shop or over zoom. This is an opportunity for you and Shannon to go over your tattoo concept, and she can give time estimates, price quotes and scheduling options from there.    If you decide to book your tattoo appointment, a deposit is due upon scheduling.  Consultations for pre-drawn designs or Plant Ally sessions are not required.

Half day (smaller tattoos, 1- 3 hours of tattoo time) - $600 Full day (larger tattoos, 4-6 hours) - $1,200 per day Price includes: - Consultation before your appointment and correspondence during the design process - Design of your tattoo - Design review on tattoo day - Stencil and application of tattoo - Professional photograph of your finished tattoo - Bandage (RecoveryDerm bandage available) - Aftercare instructions  ​ The total cost of your tattoo will vary depending on the size and detail of your design. Final estimates will be given at your consultation before you book your appointment.   A good way to estimate how long a piece might take is to use (medium sized) hands as a measurement.  - A hand sized piece usually takes a half day session. - A piece the size of two hands would require a full day, and so forth.   - Large pieces like full sleeves or back pieces take between 5-8 full day sessions depending on detail and background elements. ​ ​

The cost of designing the first draft of your tattoo is included in the half day or full day rate.  Because most tattoos take several hours to design before tattoo day, if you would like extensive changes that require your design to be completely redrawn, there is a $100 charge for additional drawing time.

A non-refundable deposit to book your appointment is due at the time of booking (generally during your consultation) and is payable in person or online.  This deposit goes toward the cost of your piece on tattoo day. For multiple day projects your deposit will be applied to the final session.   Projects that are one full day or less - $100 deposit Projects that are more than one full day - $200 deposit Your deposit is valid for rescheduling one time. If your appointment needs to be rescheduled more than once, your initial deposit will go toward administrative time and a new deposit will be required before a new date can be scheduled.

Sorry, Shannon does not tattoo anyone under the age of 18, even with parent consent.

Shannon will not consider requests for: micro/single needle tattoos color tattoos designs that include script or lettering tattoos on the face, ear, inside of the finger, or the side/inside of the foot replications of designs created by other artists Shannon evaluates design proposals on an individual basis, and only takes on projects within the subject matter and stylistic realm that she is best suited.  If Shannon feels like your design idea is outside of her toolbox, she will happily help connect you with an artist who might be a better fit.

Yes! However it's important to know that not all tattoos are good candidates for coverups.  ​ Generally coverups need to be at least three times larger than the original tattoo, require multiple sessions,  and require complete creative freedom with the new design.  ​ If you have a tattoo you'd like to cover, please fill out an inquiry form and email 2-3 photos of your existing tattoo to bramblesinblack@gmail.com so Shannon can give you the best options for your piece.
