How to Book a Tattoo on the Las Vegas Strip
Vegas moves fast, and booking a tattoo here should not slow you down. This is the whole process with me, start to finish. It should take less time to read than picking where to eat tonight.
Where I tattoo
I'm Melissa Zurisk, and I tattoo at Club Tattoo inside The LINQ, right on the Las Vegas Strip. Fourteen years in, more than two and a half thousand pieces, and a station that runs the way it should: single-use everything, autoclave logged, one hundred percent sterile.
Most of what comes out of my chair is whip shading, florals, watercolor, and fine line, with traditional, color, lettering and script close behind. Cover-ups and restorations come through too: an old tattoo that needs some love, brought back to life.
When I'm in
Sunday through Thursday, 10 AM to 5 PM. If your trip overlaps those days, you can lock in a time before you've even packed. Locals, same door, same hours, no resort fee.
How to request an appointment
Everything runs through Club Tattoo's appointment page, and every booking button on this site points there, nowhere else. Send a request and include three things: the placement, the size, and the story behind it.
A tip that makes every request better: scroll the gallery on this site first. If one of my pieces sits in the same family as what you're after, say so in your request. It tells me the look you're chasing faster than a paragraph ever could, and it tells you whether my work fits the picture in your head.
Placement and size tell me what the piece has to do to stay readable. The story tells me what it has to mean. Sometimes the story is big: birth month flowers for someone's kids, a family piece. Sometimes it's just somebody's favorite flower. Both are plenty. Most pieces are drawn for the person wearing them, and that drawing starts with what you send.
One more thing, because it keeps people from hitting send: a request isn't a commitment. It just starts the conversation.
Walk-ins are welcome
Appointment preferred, walk-ins welcome. If you're already on the Strip and today feels like the day, come by Club Tattoo and ask for me. An appointment is still the surest way to get my chair on the exact day you want, and I'll be honest with you either way: if the day is full, it's full. I'd rather turn a piece down than rush it.
Before you come in
You must be 18 or older with a valid government ID. My Nevada permit is on file. If you have a question the request form doesn't cover, email me at inkyou777@yahoo.com. If you want to see what's been coming out of the chair lately, I'm on Instagram at @MelissaZurisk702, and the gallery on this site shows the work as it is, no filters.
That's the whole process
Pick your days. Send the request with the placement, the size, and the story behind it. Then come get inked in Vegas. The best part happens in the chair.
