I booked a beautiful flash tattoo with Jim. Outline was amazing for discussing a few design details before the day of the tattoo, and it felt so much easier to be able to pay online!

No more frustrating cash payments on the day. No more super long waiting lists. No more ignored emails. No more unknowns about the quality or reputation of the artists. No more intimidating consultations in busy tattoo shops.
Outline fixes endless pain points with the relatively archaic tattoo booking process. Pay online, no cash carrying. All our artists respond promptly through Outline Messaging. All our artists are also curated and vetted by us, guaranteeing an amazing tattoo, and a friendly booking on the day.
With flash tattoos, you pick a design and pay upfront on Outline. The payment is held on our secure payment platform until you and the artist agree on a date. If a date is not agreed within the next 10 days, you'll automatically be refunded. If the artist has to cancel the booking for any reason, you will also be refunded. You won't need to pay anything on the day of the booking!

This happens to people with no tattoos or 30! Feel free to browse our artists and their flash, but we also encourage you to DM us on Instagram. We're happy to quickly answer any of your questions or queries, and can point you in the direction of the right artist and tattoo for you. Just say hello!
Each tattoo from each artist is priced differently. In general, you get what you pay for. When trusting someone with something that will be with you for life, it's best not to try and cut costs. Nonetheless, smaller, simpler tattoos can be kinder for your bank account. We try and cater for all budgets on Outline, with various kinds of flash tattoos. You'll find designs from £80 to £400.
We charge a lil 8% fee for each booking, to help us pay the bills. We truly believe this booking fee is reflective of the service we work on. It also means we don't have to do any rubbish with annoying ads or your data.
We've documented a full guide on our Medium blog.
