Walk inTattoo

Benefits of a Walk-In Tattoo:

• Convenience – No need to schedule in advance; perfect for spontaneous decisions.

• Faster Process – You can get your tattoo the same day instead of waiting weeks or months for an appointment.

• Great for Small or Simple Tattoos – Walk-ins are ideal for minimalistic designs, lettering, or flash tattoos.

• Opportunity to Browse Designs –flash sheets or pre-drawn designs you can choose from, see some of the artist’s work via Instagram.

• Less Commitment – Perfect for first-time tattoo clients who may be unsure about a large or complex piece.

• Availability of Artists – Sometimes, you may discover a talented artist you wouldn't have otherwise booked.

• No Deposit Required – Many appointment-based tattoos require a deposit, whereas walk-ins usually don't.

However, availability is not guaranteed, and wait times can vary based on the studio’s workload. It's always a good idea to call ahead and check if walk-ins are welcome that day!

While walk-in tattoos offer convenience, there are some things to consider.

Limited Design Options

• Walk-ins are typically best for small, simple tattoos. If you want a large, intricate, or custom piece, an appointment is usually required.

Uncertainty of Artist Availability

• Your preferred artist may not be available

Longer Wait Times

• Depending on how busy the studio is, you might have to wait. We recommend emailing us or calling us beforehand and we can give you a time to turn up to avoid this.

Less Time for Planning

• We recommend you booking a consultation if you would like a complex design or prefer to chat through what your vision is beforehand. This will give the artist time to design piece then when you book in for the future tattoo appointment, they will be able to catch up with you at the start of the appointment and tweak the design elements if required.

Limited Choice of Placement

• Some areas of the body require more planning and precision, the artist will then advise a future appointment date if this is required.

If you’re looking for a highly detailed, custom tattoo, booking an appointment is advisable. However, if you're after something small and simple, a walk-in appointment is suitable. We offer same day walk in appointments here at Origin Tattoo London.
