Walk-in and small tattoos in Preston
Walk-in tattoos are small pieces done the same day, no booking needed. I take them at True Colours in Preston city centre on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, when I have a gap between appointments.
How it works
Ring first. A quick call to the studio on 01772 378565 saves a wasted trip. If I have a gap, come down with your ID.
What counts as small. Up to about palm size, in simple linework or light shading: a name, a symbol, a small animal, a date, a tiny flower, matching pieces for friends.
Flash. Ready-drawn designs you can pick on the day. My flash is on Instagram: there's a highlight on my profile, and new sheets go up in posts and stories. Pick one, pick a spot, and you're usually done within the hour.
Your own small idea. Send it a day or two ahead on Instagram and I'll have it drawn up for when you arrive.
Bring. Photo ID, because you must be 18 and the studio checks. Eat beforehand. Wear something that gives easy access to the spot.

Questions about walk-ins
How much is a small tattoo?
The studio minimum is £70, which covers most walk-in pieces. Anything bigger I'll price on the spot before we start.
Which days do you take walk-ins?
Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays are my walk-in days. I'm at the studio Monday to Saturday, but it always depends on gaps, so ring on the day.
Can two of us get matching tattoos as walk-ins?
Yes, if there's time. Ring ahead and say there are two of you.
