FAQ

Good to Know

Do I need a booking?

For custom work, yes. Flash tattoos are walk-in friendly, but booking guarantees your spot.

How much will my tattoo cost?

It depends on size, detail, and placement. Come in for a free consult and we'll give you an honest quote.

Is the studio clean?

Hospital-grade sterilisation. Single-use needles. Autoclave on site. We take hygiene seriously — ask for a studio tour anytime.

Do you do tā moko?

Rua creates contemporary pieces inspired by tā moko traditions. Culturally significant work is treated with the respect it deserves — always a conversation first.
