What We Offer
Every piece begins with a conversation. Share your story, your references, your vision—we'll craft a one-of-a-kind design made exclusively for your skin.
Old ink doesn't have to tell a story you've outgrown. We specialize in transformative cover-ups and refreshes that breathe new life into existing work.
Professional, sterile piercings performed with precision and care. From classic to contemporary placements, we use premium jewelry for a comfortable experience.
Not sure where to start? We offer thoughtful consultations to help you refine your idea, choose the right placement, and plan a piece you'll love for life.
Delicate, precise, and elegantly understated. Our fine-line work is perfect for those who prefer subtle artistry that speaks softly but leaves a lasting impression.
Your tattoo's longevity matters to us. We provide thorough aftercare instructions and ongoing support so your ink heals beautifully and stays vibrant.
Our Work
Each piece is custom-created for the individual who wears it.
How It Works
Call or email us to share your idea, preferred placement, and any reference images you have in mind.
We'll refine your concept into a custom design, discussing size, placement, and style until it feels perfect.
Arrive relaxed and ready. We'll create your piece in a clean, comfortable studio environment at your pace.
Follow our aftercare guidance, let your art heal beautifully, and enjoy a lifetime story on your skin.
Questions
Not at all. Many of our clients come in with an idea, a feeling, or even just a theme they connect with, and we help shape it into a complete design. If you already have a reference or sketch, that's wonderful—we'll work with whatever you bring.
Get a good night's sleep, stay hydrated, and eat a solid meal before your session. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being tattooed. Avoid alcohol the night before, as it can thin your blood and affect the process.
Absolutely. Safety is our highest priority. We use single-use, sterile needles and equipment, follow strict hygiene protocols, and maintain a professional, sanitized workspace. Your health and comfort are never compromised.
You can reach us by phone at (641) 436-0306 or by email at storybooktatts@gmail.com. We'll discuss your idea, answer any questions, and schedule a time that works for you.
After your session, we'll provide detailed aftercare instructions tailored to your tattoo. Generally, this includes keeping the area clean, applying a thin layer of recommended ointment, avoiding sun exposure, and not picking at healing skin. We're always available if you have questions during healing.
