Iron Tiger Tuesday

We did it again guys, and this time it was bigger than ever!  A big thanks to everyone who came out on Friday the 13th, got some fun tattoos and hung out with us.  There were already 40 people lined up at our door when we opened at noon and they didn’t stop coming until we locked up at midnight. When it was all said and done we did 220 tattoos and 92 piercings which makes this the most successful Friday the 13th we’ve done so far.  Also, thanks to all your kind donations and raffle ticket purchases, we were able to raise over $1200 for Rainbow House to help out children in need around the holidays. Congratulations to our three raffle winners.  We hope you’re pumped on the prints you won and hope to see you soon to put those gift certificates to use.  Friday the 13th has always been something fun we do to say thanks to our customers.  You guys were excited, patient and stayed in high spirits all day.  Your enthusiasm makes this event worth wile for us.

The photos I’ve got for you today are a mix of Friday the 13th tattoos and other projects the guys have worked on recently.

For those of you who might be wondering, we will be closed Christmas day.

Iron Tiger Tuesday

Hey guys, welcome back.  This week we had our bud Mikey Wheeler from Mercy Seat Tattoo hanging out and doing appointment work.  We also got to hang out with our friend Mando from Immaculate Tattoo while he was in town over the weekend. Gabe, Cody and Dan all made progress on some tattoos they’ve had in the works (pics below).  Phil got to do some fun bro tats.  Everyone’s been busy getting their Friday the 13th sheets in order.  Keep an eye out for a preview of those sheets in the next couple days.

Oh by the way, for the first time ever we’ll be running a piercing special on Friday the 13th!  Here’s what  you’re looking at:  LOBES $13, ANYTHING ELSE $20! NO DERMALS, GENITALS, CHEEKS OR SURFACE PIERCING. LIMIT 3 PER CUSTOMER. CASH ONLY! 

If you still don’t know how the Friday the 13th tattoo special works, here you go.  We will have sheets of flash painted specifically for the event.  They will be displayed in our lobby the day of the event.  The deal only applies to tattoos from those specific sheets.  The designs from those sheets can not be altered or resized (other than having them flipped to fit the appropriate side of the body).  Any design from those sheets will be $13 with a mandatory $7 tip so you’ll be spending no less than $20 total (even with the mandatory tip you’re still getting tattooed for $30 less than our shop minimum). Cash only please.  These will all be done on a walk-in, first come-first serve basis.  Our hours on Friday are Noon-Midnight so get here asap to beat the rush.

Iron Tiger Tuesday

Hey guys, here’s what’s been going on at the shop lately.  Gabe made some headway on a few different projects he’s had in the works lately including a color session on our friend Max’s fighting Indian/horse piece.  Cody did session work on a few different large tribal pieces.  Colin spent most of the week working at Iron Age.  Casey came out to cover shifts and did a cool snake/rose on a walk-in.  He’s also been putting the final touches on some artwork that will be featured in Show Class Magazine.  Phil did another session on a massive (mostly) black and gray sleeve he’s been working on.  As usual, most everyone had some painting in the works.  Lars finished one that you can check out below.  Everyone went out to Roxy’s on Wednesday night to make sure our friend Irish Peter would  be as hung over as possible on his trip back to Ireland.  We’ll miss you bud, see you again in a couple years.

In case you haven’t been keeping track of your calendars, there’s another Friday the 13th coming up.  For those of you who’ve never done this before, here’s how it works.  We will have sheets of flash painted specifically for the event.  They will be displayed in our lobby the day of the event.  The deal only applies to tattoos from those specific sheets.  The designs from those sheets can not be altered or resized (other than having them flipped to fit the appropriate side of the body).  Any design from those sheets will be $13 with a mandatory $7 tip so you’ll be spending no less than $20 total (even with the mandatory tip you’re still getting tattooed for $30 less than our shop minimum).  These will all be done on a walk-in, first come-first serve basis.  Our hours on Friday are Noon-Midnight so get here asap to beat the rush.  This is a cool promo that we look forward to every year so come out and lets have fun with it!

HOLIDAY SPECIAL!!!

We’ll be running this special through December 24th.

Iron Tiger Tuesday

Hey thanks for checking out this weeks update.  Gabe did the final session on a koi fish cover up on our friend Mel.  Cody spent a few days working out at Iron Age in St. Louis. Casey came up to work for him and hang out.  He also did a cool phonograph tattoo on his lady for her birthday.  The rest of the crew pretty much stayed busy doing walk-ins and painting.

I want to take a second to thank our friend Mike Foley.  His company MFCaseworks manufactures tattooer work stations that are absolutely amazing; a perfect blend of form, function and style.  He dropped off some prototypes for the guys at the shop to test out and everyone is super pumped on them.  If you’re a tattooer looking for a new work station to fit your needs you should definitely check out the MFCaseworks site and follow them on Instagram (@mfcaseworks).

If you’re thinking about giving a friend/family member an Iron Tiger gift certificate for the holidays I’ve got just the deal for you.  Now through Christmas we’ll tack on an extra $20 in value to any gift certificate of $100 or more.  They’re available at the shop so come get ’em.
