About the service
What a walk in tattoo Pickering visit includes
Some ideas cannot wait for a booking calendar. The KCHN Tattoos offers walk-in tattoos for clients who come in from Pickering, Ajax and the east side of the GTA. A walk-in is a same-day session for a smaller piece, done when one of our artists has an open chair. The walk-in and flash page shows what fits into one visit.
Our walk-in clients often want script, a date, a small symbol or a design from our current flash. These pieces take less time, so they fit into an open slot. If your idea needs heavy shading or covers a large area, we plan it as a custom piece instead.
Pickering clients sometimes use a walk-in for a first, smaller Pickering tattoo before they book a larger one. That gives you a feel for the studio, the artist and the healing process. When you are ready for something bigger, the booking and contact details are one click away.
What to expect
What a walk-in tattoo shop Pickering clients visit should offer
A walk-in should feel easy, but it should never cut corners. Here is how each visit works at our studio.
01
Open every day
The studio runs from 10 am to 6 pm daily, weekends included. Walk-in spots depend on artist availability, so text or call before the drive.
02
Clear quotes
Cost depends on size, placement, detail and time in the chair. You get the quote before the stencil goes on, with no surprise fees afterwards.
03
Small custom ideas
Your artist can draw a small custom idea during the visit. Larger designs are planned in a free consultation so the artwork gets proper time.
04
Clean, single-use tools
Each needle and cartridge is opened in front of you and thrown out after your session. Barriers cover every touch point on the station.
05
Placement advice
Your artist helps you pick a spot where the design will age well. Thin script and fine line tattoo work often sit well on the forearm, ankle or behind the ear.
06
Healing and touch-ups
Written aftercare goes home with you. After four to six weeks, your artist can review the healed tattoo and touch up any patchy spots.

Getting here
Getting to our studio from Pickering
Our studio is at 240 Alton Towers Cir, Unit A4, in north Scarborough. It is not in Pickering. Most Pickering clients take Highway 401 west into Scarborough, then head north toward Steeles Avenue East. Traffic changes the trip a lot, so leave some extra time at rush hour.
If the needle makes you nervous, read our guide to managing pain during a tattoo session before you come. Eat a proper meal, drink water and bring valid photo ID.
