Tattoo FAQ

So, you’ve always wanted a tattoo of a purple unicorn riding on a skateboard.  Now, with the magic of temporary tattoos, Buttonhead can make your dream tattoo come true (and without all of the pesky commitment that comes with getting the real thing). Here’s how it happens: If you have a printer-ready tattoo image, feel free to e-mail it to me at ali[!at]buttonhead.org. Please include your desired size and quantity for a quote. If you need help creating the artwork, no problem! All you need to get started is a solid idea of your design and an estimated $35 for creation of custom tattoo art (in addition to the cost of the actual temporary tattoo(s) and shipping). Just e-mail your idea, along with the desired size and quantity for a quote.

Minimum: 2.5”x2.5”
Maximum: None. Larger than 8”x10” will be pieced

The minimum order for custom Buttonhead temporary tattoos is ½ sheet of media at $10.00.

Each temporary tattoo comes packaged in a zip bag with a set of instructions.

For weddings, events and special occasions, I also offer custom packaging which includes a personalized cardstock tag that is fixed to the top of the favor for a nice finishing touch and the opportunity to add a text message for the guests. View a photo of the two packaging options compared.

Any white color in a temporary tattoo design will apply as clear.  Buttonhead recommends using grey as a substitute.

Use of a temporary tattoo is not intended for children under age 12, individuals who are pregnant, nursing, have sensitive skin, or are allergic to medical grade glue. Buttonhead reserves the right to refuse sale for unintended use.

The amount of time your order will take depends on the artwork and the quantity being produced. If a custom design is being created, 1-2 rounds of proof is typically 3-4 days. Once the artwork is completed, production time is between 2-5 days.
