The following is everything that our clients need to know about what Dreamboat Tattoo Company is doing to help ensure the safety and well-being of our community during the COVID-19 crisis:

We are committed to delivering great tattoo experiences, while also being mindful of the global need for health and safety. Please know that we would not open our doors and begin operating without being totally confident that our practices are safe, clean, and controlled. We are a small family business and we understand the stress and uncertainty that these times have brought to everyone. We believe that tattoo can bring relief, catharsis, and community - things that are important now more than ever. Please review what we are doing to help keep our community safe, healthy, and happily tattooed!

We continue to follow the appropriate guidelines set out to us by the CDC and WA state. This means that DTC (Dreamboat Tattoo Co.) artists and affiliates will continue to mask up during procedures and consultations. Those that are vaccinated with proof of vaccination status will no longer be required to wear a mask indoors. Those that are unvaccinated or without proof of vaccination status, will be required to wear a mask, as well as everyone else inside the shop regardless of vaccination status. For the full details of what this means, please see our COVID-19 Info page.

Our artists are trained, and certified by the state of Washington, in the handling of bloodborne pathogens. We will continue to follow the federal guidelines set out by the CDC and OSHA to help ensure that we are at the forefront of sterilization and safe practices.

Video calls for consultation purposes are still available through Zoom, Skype, or Google Hangouts.

We have digitized our portfolios to encourage touchless browsing of our works. They are available on our Instagram, @dreamboattattoo, on our website, or you can view our slideshow set up on the screen in our lobby. DTC accepts Visa, Mastercard, AmEx, Discover, and all forms of NFC contactless payment. We also have digital gift certificates available for purchase!

Every DTC artist will be wearing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times during shop hours. We have also increased the amount of PPE that each artist is responsible for wearing during procedures. This includes disposable masks, gloves, and washable aprons that will be laundered every day offsite per WAC 308 20-110 and separate from pedestrian clothing.

The artists at Dreamboat Tattoo use all disposable tattoo supplies during procedures. This means that anything that is used in the tattoo process comes from single-use sterile packaging, or is protected using medical-grade barriers. Once the session is complete, all barriers and disposables are discarded.

After every procedure, all surfaces are sterilized using a medical-grade cleaner and disposable wipes.

We have established a client sanitation station in our lobby. This provides clients with disposable masks, disposable aprons, sanitized pen, hand sanitizer, tissues, and gloves (if necessary).

We are dedicated to keeping ourselves healthy, as well. DTC artists and personnel will maintain and closely monitor our personal health, for your safety and well-being.

Thank you for helping us do all we can do to mitigate exposure to COVID-19 and keep us all safe, healthy, and happily tattooed!
