Frequently Asked Questions

  • HOUS is a private studio located in the Arts District of Los Angeles. We respectfully only disclose the exact address and other studio details to approved clients via the client login.

  • In order to book a session, please take some time to fill out our inquiry form. If your project is a good fit for HOUS, we will be in touch to schedule an initial phone consultation where you can speak to your chosen artist directly about your vision for the piece.

  • We typically accept same-day walk-ins based on the design's complexity. Please call [213-261-3636] ahead to check availability.

  • Pricing is charged by the session, not the hour, and all projects require multiple sessions to complete. Each piece constitutes a complex and time-intensive creative process, and thus pricing may vary based on the scope and scale of the project.

  • Sessions last anywhere from 6 to 14+ hours depending on the design and the client’s comfort, and are inclusive of breaks, meals, and pain management. Session amounts range from 3-10 sessions depending on the size, placement, and complexity of the piece. Session Length Examples:

    Half sleeve – 3-4 sessions
    Sleeve – 6-8 sessions
    Back – 7-10 sessions
    Side Piece – 3-6 sessions
    Chest – 3-5 sessions

  • If you enjoyed the experience, loved the work, and your wallet agrees, a tip would be the cherry on top!

  • All deposits are non-refundable. You can change your session date via phone or email up to 14 days before your appointment. We will always do our best to accommodate.

  • We kindly ask clients to bring just one guest to your session. Please note that guests aren’t allowed in the tattooing areas, so they can cheer you on from a distance!

  • We don't replicate other artists' designs, but we can use the image as inspiration to craft a unique piece just for you.

  • For time-limited releases, the edition size will be determined after the sale and then put into production, so please allow an estimated 4-6 weeks for delivery. Other items usually ship within a week. Delivery times will vary depending on your location and chosen shipping method. You’ll get an email from us when your order ships, with tracking information.

  • If you are not completely satisfied, email us at mail@hous-studios.com to arrange a return within 30 days. We reserve the right to refuse service and/or limit quantities to anyone at our discretion.
