Copper Finch Tattoo

Appointments can be booked by filling out our inquiry form or contacting the studio directly. A non-refundable retainer is required to secure your spot, which is applied toward the final cost of your tattoo.

Yes, we do take walk-ins when we have availability.

Get a good night’s sleep, eat a full meal beforehand, and stay hydrated. Avoid alcohol, drugs, or blood thinners for at least 24 hours before your appointment. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the tattoo area.

If you need to reschedule, please notify us at least 48 hours in advance. Retainers are non-refundable but can usually be transferred to a new date if proper notice is given. No-shows or last-minute cancellations may result in loss of the retainer.

You must be 18 years or older to get tattooed at our studio, with a valid government-issued photo ID. We do not tattoo minors, even with parental consent, as this is against South Carolina state regulations and our studio policy.

We do not allow the use of numbing creams or gels unless it has been discussed with your artist beforehand and approved. Using numbing products without approval can affect the skin, make tattooing more difficult, and impact how the ink heals.

We require a non-refundable retainer to book all tattoo appointments. The retainer holds your spot in the artist’s schedule and is applied toward the final cost of your tattoo (in most cases, it is applied to the last session of your project).

Always follow the aftercare instructions given by your artist at the end of your session. Each tattoo may require slightly different care depending on placement, size, and style, so it’s important to follow their specific guidance for the best healing and long-term results.

Yes! We offer gift cards that can be used toward tattoos at both Copper Finch Tattoo and 36 South Tattoo. Gift cards are redeemable for up to 1 year from the date of purchase and must be presented at the time of your appointment. They are super convenient and can be instantly downloaded, making them a perfect gift for any occasion.

Yes! Tips are always appreciated and go directly to your artist. You can tip in cash, through the checkout system, or via the artist’s preferred payment app (if applicable).

Pain levels vary depending on placement, size, and individual tolerance. Most clients describe the pain as manageable. Our artists work efficiently to minimize discomfort and ensure you’re as comfortable as possible during the process.

Wear clean, comfortable clothing that gives your artist easy access to the area being tattooed. Dark colors are best since ink may stain. If you’re getting a larger piece, consider bringing layers so you can stay comfortable during a long session.
