How flash works
Simple, quick, no surprises
Set prices
Small flash is $150 and medium flash $280, including the design. The price on the sheet is the price you pay.
Short appointments
One hour for small pieces, two for medium. No consultation needed; just name the design in your booking notes.
Small tweaks welcome
Swap a flower, change the color or add a line of script. Bigger changes make it a custom piece.
Flash artists
Who tattoos flash

Mara Quinn
Owner · Blackwork & Dotwork
Mara opened Sigil in 2016 after nine years in shops from Portland to New Orleans. Bold blackwork, ornamental dotwork and large-scale pieces that follow the body.

Theo Brandt
Neo-Traditional & Color
Theo draws saturated, hard-wearing color: animals, botanicals and portraits with a bold outline. He’s our go-to for cover-ups that need real color to hide the old work.

Ruben Castillo
Black & Grey Realism
Ruben grew up drawing in his dad’s barbershop on East Cesar Chavez. Smooth black and grey realism, portraits, religious and Chicano-style lettering, in single sessions or full sleeves.

Elias Ward
Fine Line & Script
Elias works with single needles and a light hand: delicate florals, micro-script and minimal line work that heals crisp. Most of his first-tattoo clients come back for a second.
Flash questions
Good to know
Can I get flash in a different size?
Usually, yes. Flash can go a little bigger or smaller; ask when you arrive. Much smaller often means less detail, so your artist may simplify it to keep it readable.
Can someone else get the same design?
Repeatable flash, yes; that’s part of the tradition. Designs marked one-of-a-kind are tattooed once and then retired.
Do you do walk-ins?
When a chair is free, yes, for flash and piercings. Booking online is the only way to be sure, especially on Fridays and Saturdays.
Do you hold flash days?
A few times a year, with special sheets and set prices. Follow us on Instagram or join the newsletter to hear first.
