We just want to do good tattoos!
Daybreak Tattoo is all about doing awesome tattoos and having a good time doing them!
We genuinely want to do tattoos that you are still happy with 10 years from now. That means we are going to be honest and upfront with you. There are a lot of trends right now that won’t age well but that look really cool in a photo for a day. Our job is to educate and help come up with the best way to capture your idea.
It can be intimidating walking into a tattoo shop, we have all been there. Don’t worry about that at Daybreak. Come on in and one of us dorks will be there to say hi! :)
LGBT+ FRIENDLY · FIRST TIMER FRIENDLY · TATTITUDE FREE ZONE!
We gladly accept walk-ins but appointments are recommended! You must be 18 or older to get a tattoo without parental consent.
WE DO NOT OFFER PIERCING SERVICES.
We respectfully ask that you do not bring children with you to the shop. It is an adult environment and we are trying to focus on our tattooing.
***MINORS***
Tattoos on minors will be handled on a case-by-case basis. We reserve the right to refuse service. We will not tattoo a minor anywhere that is not covered by pants and a t-shirt and we will not tattoo anyone under the age of 16.
***AFTERCARE***
Our full aftercare recommendations can be found here:http://daybreaktattoo.com/daybreak_aftercare.pdf
We also sell aftercare products at the shop!
***PRICING***
Shop minimum is $50 / Hourly rate is $125
***DEPOSITS***
$50 • Minimum
$100 • Large Single Session Tattoos
$250 • Multiple Session Tattoos
Deposits are non-refundable and are applied to the last session of your tattoo. No deposit = no appointment.
***CANCELLATIONS / RESCHEDULES***
Cancellations / reschedules that give less than 48 hours notice may lose their deposit at the artist’s discretion. We don’t want to take your money for doing nothing. Respect us and we will respect you!
***UNCONFIRMED APPTS***
All appointments are sent a text message reminder 7 days before their appointment and the day before. You are asked to respond to confirm your appointment. If you do not, we will give you a call but if we cannot get in touch with you and the reminder stays unconfirmed then your appointment will be cancelled.
***MULTI-SESSION WORK***
For large, multiple session projects, appointments will be booked out every 2-6 weeks until completion. If you cannot commit to that schedule until completion, then we ask you to wait until you can before booking.
With large projects taking anywhere from 10 to 20 hours of drawing time, we just can't commit to that much time preparing for a project to not finish it. Every project we book pushes the next large project back further, so it isn't fair to our other clients as well.
***TOUCH-UPS***
Sometimes a tattoo needs a little more attention. We offer free touch-ups for the first year on most projects.
Recently unhacked, custom tattoo shop located Kalamazoo. Cool tats for cool people! We are not slaves to overpriced trends that will age poorly.
