What people ask us
How far is the shop from Round Lake Beach?
We're about 13 miles from Round Lake Beach. The address is 3016 Belvidere Rd, Waukegan, IL 60085, and most people come in off Rollins Road.
Do you take walk-ins from Round Lake Beach?
Yes — walk-ins 7 days a week. It's first-come, first-served, so if you're driving over from Round Lake Beach it's worth calling ahead on (815) 255-5000 so you're not sitting in the waiting area.
How much will my tattoo cost?
It depends entirely on size, placement and how much detail is in it, so the artists quote properly rather than guess off a price list. Send the idea through and you’ll get a real number back. Military discount: 25% off.
How old do I have to be?
You have to be 18 with valid photo ID, and there are no exceptions to that in Illinois. Bring the ID with you — we can't tattoo you without it, however far you've driven.
Can you cover up an old tattoo?
Usually, yes — cover-ups and reworks are regular work here. Whether it will work depends on what is already there, so send a clear photo through the form and an artist will tell you honestly rather than sell you something that will not sit right.
