Walk-In Tattoos in Croydon

Timebomb prioritises booked appointments, but inspiration doesn't always wait. When an artist has a gap, the studio will try to fit walk-in customers in on the day.

What works as a walk-in

• Small to medium-sized tattoos
• Flash designs and simple lettering
• Customers who are flexible about which artist and what time

Larger custom work, cover-ups and multi-session pieces need an appointment so the artist can plan the design properly.

How to give yourself the best chance

1. Call ahead on 020 8686 7730 to ask if anyone has space that day. Availability changes daily.
2. Come early in the day. The studio opens at 11am Monday to Saturday, and the earlier you arrive, the more gaps there are left.
3. Bring your reference on your phone, and know the size and placement you want.
4. Bring photo ID. You must be 18 or over to be tattooed in the UK.

If the studio is fully booked

If nobody can fit you in, the team will set up an appointment for a later date instead. Booked tattoos are secured in the studio with a cash deposit, which comes off the final price.

Walking in for a piercing instead? Piercings are always a walk-in service. See walk-in piercing.
