Most studios require a scheduled consultation for custom work but still take walk-ins for flash designs or small pieces — a split Google Maps can't show, since the listing just says 'tattoo shop' either way. Every shop tagged here states walk-ins are welcome on its own website, not just in an old customer review.

Good to know
Can you walk into a tattoo shop and get a tattoo the same day?
Yes, at shops that accept walk-ins for flash tattoos — pre-drawn designs sized on the spot, usually done in under an hour for $80-150 depending on size and the shop's minimum. Custom pieces almost always need a scheduled consult first, even at walk-in-friendly shops, so call ahead if you want original art rather than a design off the wall.
What is a tattoo shop's minimum price?
Most U.S. shops charge a flat minimum of $50-100 even for the smallest tattoo, covering setup, ink, and a sterile needle cartridge regardless of size. Walk-in flash pieces often land right at that minimum, while larger custom work is typically billed hourly at $100-200 per hour.
Where can I buy body jewelry near me?
High-quality body jewelry is available at professional piercing studios and dedicated body art shops throughout South Carolina.
