FAQS

You must be 18 years of age. A valid drivers license must be present on the day. No exceptions.

HOW OLD DO I NEED TO BE?

HOW CAN I WORK FOR YOU AS A GUEST ARTIST?

We are always interested in taking on new and talented guest artists. Please email us hello@markdcollective.com.au

CAN YOU TATTOO OVER A SCAR?

In theory yes, tattoos can be applied to scars. However similar to when we tattoo cover-ups they require an experienced artist. It should be noted that the scars must have healed completely and no reddening can be seen. Please email us photos of your scars and we can go from there.

WHAT FORMS OF PAYMENT ARE ACCEPTED?

Cash please.

CAN I BRING FAMILY OR FRIENDS TO MY APPOINTMENT?

Our preference is that you come to your appointment alone. The main reason for this is to ensure we keep our high standards of hygiene & allow enough space for the artists. We will take very good care of you! 

DO YOU SELL GIFT VOUCHERS?

Yes! You can purchase gift vouchers in store and on our website:


The minimum spend on a voucher is $150, they are non refundable, valid for 1 year from date of purchase and can be redeemed with any artist at the studio. See further terms and conditions on the Gift Voucher page.

Bookings and quotes can be made by emailing hello@markdcollective.com.au or by  booking directly through the website.

Remember to provide a description of the design, reference photos, size, placement, preferred dates and artist. This enables us to process your request quicker.

HOW DO I BOOK AN APPOINTMENT/GET A QUOTE?

WHAT IF I CAN’T MAKE THE APPOINTMENT?

If you’re unable to make your appointment or need to reschedule, please let us know at least 72 hours in advance.

We’ll happily change accordingly.

However if you cancel less than 72 hours before your appointment or no-show, your initial deposit will be forfeited and a new deposit will be required to confirm a new booking.

Yes, a little! But we promise to take good care of you.

HOW LONG DOES A TATTOO TAKE TO HEAL?

It takes up to two weeks for the tattoo to ‘heal’. However it takes months for the skin to completely recover.

HOW SHOULD I PREPARE FOR MY TATTOO?

We recommend that you have a bite to eat beforehand and stay hydrated. It’s ideal not to consume alcohol prior to or the night before your appointment as alcohol can increase bleeding.

Having the tattoo area ‘hair-free’ before the appointment would be appreciated.

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY TATTOO?

Every studio has their own recommended care methods. Ours are:

After 1-2 days remove second skin bandage

Gently wash the tattoo with warm soapy water

Gently apply a small amount of sensitive skin moisturiser! to the tattooed area. Massage generously into the skin.

Do not cover – let the tattoo heal in the natural air.

Apply moisturiser! 2-3 times a day for a fresh tattoo for approx two weeks.

If your tattoo becomes itchy or scabby – do not itch! This is a normal part of the healing process

Avoid the sun, chlorine, salt water and soaking the tattoo for at least two weeks

DOES IT HURT?

DO YOU DO FINGER TATTOOS?

No.

HOW LONG AFTER MY TATTOO CAN I EXERCISE OR SWIM IN THE POOL/SEA?

We recommend you wait 3-4 days before exercising. You should avoid the sea/beach for around two weeks. If you want to swim in chlorinated water, its best to wait three weeks. We tell all our clients: those that take the after care particularly seriously in the initial phase will benefit from their tattoo for a lifetime.

ARE YOUR INKS VEGAN?

Yes.

Britt  will have a minimum of $110. The final price will be dependent on detail of the design, location on the body, size and artist chosen.
