Common questions and tips from our work with Waverly customers.
- How long does a custom tattoo design take?
- It depends on size and detail. A small script or simple symbol can often be drawn during your consultation. A larger piece may need extra time for the artist to sketch and revise before your session. Bring reference photos and a clear idea of size and placement to your consultation in Waverly, and the artist can give you a realistic timeline.
- How much does a custom tattoo cost in Waverly?
- Price depends on size, detail, color, and placement, so there's no single number. Reviewers describe the pricing at Twin Tiers as fair and reasonable. The fastest way to get a real quote is to call (570) 867-0752 or bring your idea to the Broad Street shop in Waverly. An artist will price it before any work starts.
- Can I bring my own tattoo design?
- Yes. You can bring a drawing, a photo, or a rough idea. The artist will check how it will look at the size and placement you want, suggest changes that help it age well, and refine it with you until you're happy. With custom work, the final design is made to fit your body, not copied straight off a screen.
Tip
Plan placement before you settle on size
Where a tattoo goes affects how big it should be. Fine lines that are too small can blur together over the years, and spots like hands, feet, and ribs heal differently. Talk with your artist about how the design will look in ten years, not just next week. If you have a dress code at work, ask about spots that stay covered.
