Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking or starting your tattoo with Josh.

Josh Maierle Tattoo: Bozeman, MT
Yes — I do take walk-ins when my schedule allows. Since appointment work is my primary focus, availability changes week to week depending on bookings and drawing time. The best way to stay updated on walk-in availability is through Instagram or by reaching out via email.
Booking timelines vary depending on the project, season, and availability. Smaller pieces may have shorter wait times, while larger or custom work may book further out. Reach out through the inquiry form and I’ll give you the most accurate timeline possible.
I do have available flash designs, including pieces inspired by nature, traditional tattooing, and Japanese influence. I’ll be adding flash work to the site soon, but you can also keep an eye on Instagram for newly available designs and openings.
I specialize in Neo-traditional and Japanese-inspired tattoos, with a focus on nature—animals, florals, and seasonal themes. I also work in black and grey or color, depending on the design. If your vision sits in that world, we'll make it work. You can view my portfolio here, or follow my tattoo page on Instagram.
That's the whole point. Email is the best way to reach me for booking inquiries, questions, or project ideas. This helps me keep communication organized and respond thoughtfully when I’m not tattooing. During the consultation, we'll talk through placement, size, flow, and references. I'll sketch directions and we'll land on something that feels right—something you'll wear with confidence.
A deposit holds your appointment and goes toward the final cost. Life happens—if you need to reschedule, just give notice. Cancellations made with reasonable time are handled fairly. Details come through once we book. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment. $50 deposit for small to medium-sized tattoos and $100 deposit for large-scale work. Your deposit goes toward the final cost of the tattoo once the piece is completed.
