Websites for tattoo studios & artists

A tattoo studio website that shows the work

Nobody picks a tattoo artist from a list of services. They look at the work, find the artist whose style they want, and ask about an idea. Your site should make that easy, and filter out the requests you can't take.

In short: A tattoo studio website should lead with each artist's portfolio, take consult requests with reference photos and placement, and spell out deposits, age rules and aftercare. I build those sites for tattoo studios and independent artists in Reno, Sparks and Carson City.

What a tattoo studio website needs

Lantern Moth Tattoo is an example I built to show what a site like yours can look like: the same platform, booking and dashboard every client gets.

Built around the consult

Most tattoo work starts with a conversation, not a time slot. The site's request form asks what you need to quote and schedule, and the requests land in your dashboard and your email.

For walk-in days, flash events or shorter pieces, online booking works too, with each artist's own days and hours.

  • Request by artist, or "whoever fits my idea best".
  • Flash days and guest artists announced in a banner at the top.
  • Books open or closed, stated clearly for each artist.

On Pro: deposits and reference photos

Pro adds deposits at booking, so serious clients hold their spot and no-shows cost less. Booking questions can include photo uploads for reference images and placement, and clients get text reminders before their session.

Your artists and your shop

  • A page or section for each artist: their style, their books, and their work.
  • Real photos of your shop, so first-timers know what to expect when they walk in.
  • Hours, walk-in policy and what to bring (ID, a meal, comfortable clothes).
  • Merch or prints? An online store on Pro, with drops, sizes and shipping labels.

Policies that save you messages

Half the DMs a shop gets are the same five questions: how much is the deposit, how old do I have to be, can I bring a friend, what if I need to cancel, and how do I take care of it. Answering them on the site, in your shop's voice, saves you hours.

Tattoo studios around Reno and Sparks

I build for shops and independent artists across Reno and Sparks: Midtown, Downtown and the Wells Avenue area, South Reno, Sparks and Spanish Springs, plus Carson City and Fernley. People search "tattoo shop near me" and "fine line tattoo Reno", and your site and your Google listing should both answer with the same name, hours and phone.

What it costs

Growth, the plan most businesses pick, is $30 a month plus $90 one-time setup (a founding price while spots last; regularly $79 a month). Pay yearly and get 2 months free. The preview is free, and your site is live within a week of signing up. See every plan.

Questions

Can clients send reference photos?

Yes, on the Pro plan. Consult and booking requests can include photo uploads for reference images and placement.

Can I take deposits?

Yes, on the Pro plan. Clients pay the deposit when they book, and your policy is shown before they do.

Can each artist have their own portfolio?

Yes. Each artist gets their own gallery and their own booking or request option.

What if an artist's books are closed?

Their section says so, and requests can still come in for when books open, or be turned off for that artist.

Can I post aftercare instructions?

Yes. Aftercare lives on the site in your shop's own words, so clients can find it any time.

Can the site mention age and ID rules?

Yes. Your age, ID and consent rules are stated clearly in the policies section.

How much does it cost?

Most businesses pick Growth: $30 a month plus $90 one-time setup (a founding price while spots last; regularly $79 a month). Paying yearly gets 2 months free. The preview is free, and you only pay if you want the site.

How fast will my site be live?

Within a week of signing up, or your next month is free. If I need something only you can give me, like your logo or photos, the clock pauses until I have it.

What happens if I cancel?

Cancel online any time. Your site stays up through the time you've paid for, you can download your content for 30 days, and your domain stays yours.
