The Golden Tarot Experience

Forget the stereotype of the dark, intimidating tattoo parlor. We've built a space that feels more like an art gallery or a high-end lounge.

When you walk in, you're greeted by 12 sparkling chandeliers, custom resin floors, and a welcoming team. We even have a movie theater screen to keep you entertained during longer sessions.

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive, safe space for everyone. Whether you're a CEO from Maitland Boulevard getting your first piece or a collector adding to a bodysuit, you'll be treated with the same level of respect and care.

Getting tattooed hurts, but the environment shouldn't be painful. A clean, comfortable, and visually inspiring space lowers your anxiety, making the process much easier to handle.

Cover-Ups and Tattoo Transformations

We see it all the time: a spur-of-the-moment decision from ten years ago that no longer represents who you are today. If you have an unwanted tattoo, you don't have to live with it.

Our artists are specialists in cover-ups and reworks. We don't just blast black ink over the old design. We work with you to create a new piece of art that cleverly hides the old one, incorporating texture, color, and placement strategies to make the original disappear completely.

Laser removal is expensive, often costing $200 to $500 per session and taking months. A high-quality cover-up solves the problem instantly, turning embarrassment into art you're proud to show off.

Why Jewelry Quality Matters

Our piercers use only the highest quality jewelry: implant-grade titanium or 14k gold. We prioritize your health by using single-use needles and hospital-grade sterilization techniques. Every piercing includes detailed aftercare instructions.

Cheap jewelry often contains nickel, which causes allergic reactions and infections in many people. Our implant-grade materials are biocompatible, meaning they work with your body rather than against it.

A piercing is only as good as the jewelry and technique behind it. Our award-winning piercers and premium materials mean fewer complications and better healing.

“Finally, a shop that feels clean and welcoming! I got my nose pierced here, and the jewelry selection was incredible. It healed perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone in Seminole County.”

— Mike T.

“I needed a cover-up for an old piece I got years ago. The artist sat down with me, listened, and created a floral design that completely hid the old mess. You can't even tell it was there.”
