Tattoo Appointments or Walk-Ins

Tattoo Appointments – Walk-ins sometimes available

Appointments vs Walk-Ins: How It Works at Timebomb Tattoo & Piercing (Bournemouth & Croydon)

At Timebomb Tattoo & Piercing, we love keeping things flexible, approachable, and stress-free—whether you’re planning your next big tattoo or popping in for a quick piercing.

With two thriving studios—one in Bournemouth and our mothership branch in Croydon—we’ve created a booking system that balances the convenience of walk-ins with the organisation and care that appointments offer.

?? Tattoos at Timebomb: Appointment First, Walk-In If We Can

Tattoos at both our Bournemouth and Croydon studios are primarily by appointment. Booking ensures your artist is prepared and focused entirely on your piece.

Walk-ins are always welcome if we have availability. Just give us a call or pop by the studio—we’ll always do our best to fit you in.
