Walk-In Tattoos & Piercings Winnipeg

No appointment? No problem.
We get it—sometimes you just want to do something spontaneous. Whether it’s a solo moment, a “let’s go!” with a friend, or an unexpected group plan, walk-ins make it easy.

At Soul Survivors Body Art, we welcome walk-in tattoos and piercings—just a few things to know first. There’s nothing better than turning a spark of inspiration into something permanent (or at least shiny). Just show up, and if we’ve got the time, we’re in.

Walk-In Tattoos

Want a tattoo but don’t have an appointment? We get it—sometimes the inspiration just hits. Walk-ins are always welcome at Soul Survivors, but here’s how it really works.

The Real Deal on Walk-Ins
Walk-ins operate on a first-come, first-served basis, but there’s no guarantee we’ll have time. If you’re truly committed to getting tattooed, booking an appointment is always your safest bet—no waiting, no uncertainty, just your dedicated time slot.

That said, we love accommodating walk-ins when the stars align: available artist, manageable design that doesn’t need extensive redrawing, and an open spot in the schedule.

Pro Tip: Call us when we open at 11 a.m. to check availability. Even if we tell you there might be time at 2 p.m., someone could still walk in before you and secure that slot with a booking fee—and they’ll get priority because it’s guaranteed.

What We Can Do as Walk-Ins:

Flash designs and simple custom pieces
“Get what you get” gumball tattoos ($120) — perfect for groups or surprises
Quick matching or travel tattoos
Any design that’s clear, quick, and fits the available time

What Needs an Appointment:

Large or detailed custom work
Designs requiring extensive revisions
When you absolutely need it done today (booking removes the guesswork)

Walk-In Piercings

Standard piercings like lobes, helix, nostril, septum, conch, and more are performed by Kaleb, our licensed piercer. We have a large jewelry selection in-studio, and when timing works out, it’s fast, sterile, and walk-out-ready.

Here’s How Walk-In Piercings Work:
We do our best to accommodate walk-ins, but booked appointments always take priority. If you’d rather not wait, call us and we’ll book a time.

Walk-In Jewelry Changes
We’ll always try to fit in jewelry changes, removals, or downsizes, but it depends on how busy we are. Even if we’re booked, we might still be able to help—just expect a short wait.

Actual Piercings
Quick piercings like helix or nostril are easiest to fit in. Larger or more complex piercings require more setup and are better booked in advance.

Your Best Options:

Piercings available Tuesday–Saturday
Call ahead to confirm openings
Same-day bookings available online
Groups of three or more should book directly for back-to-back piercings

Not Available for Walk-Ins:

Cosmetic tattooing (brows, lash lines, scar camouflage)
Tooth gems (quick, but requires setup)
Large custom tattoo projects or sleeves

What to Expect When You Walk In

First come, first served—arrive early for the best chance
Bring valid ID (18+ for tattoos and most piercings)
Wait times vary by artist and piercer availability
We’ll give you honest estimates, aftercare sheets, and good vibes

Whether you’re planning a spontaneous piercing or a just-for-fun tattoo, our goal is the same: to make it safe, soulful, and something you’ll remember.

This was my first tattoo done by a professional, so my experience was very good and this will be the place I will go if or when I need a tattoo or a piercing, and of course I will be letting friends know about Soul Survivors Body Art, thank you for this experience 😊

Shannon Traverse

I went to get my ears re-pierced properly at Soul Survivors and am so glad I did. The staff were kind, patient, professional and fun. They made sure I was happy with the plan ahead of time and knew how to care for the piercings afterward. They also offered to answer any questions I might have later on – “don’t google trying to find answers, we’re the professionals and we’re just a message or call away.”

Love my artist. Great conversationalist and very funny. And the artwork just as good. Drew it up exactly how I imagined it and look even better as the tattoo. Awesome experience. 10/10 will visit again.
