where body and art become one
Finally the time has come! We have been told we are officially allowed to open for business! There will be a few additional guidelines put in place to remain open.
All customers will be by appointment only.
Masks must be worn by all employees and clients while performing personal services. If you do not have a mask we do have some you can purchase. They are $10, and cash only.
Please park in the back lot and use the rear entrance.
Everyone is required to wash their hands after they enter the shop. There will also be hand sanitizers throughout the shop.
Unfortunately your support system will have to remain outside of the shop. Only clients that are getting tattooed, or that have consultations for a tattoo, will be allowed in the shop.
If you had an appointment that has been canceled due to COVID-19 closures, we will be reaching out to reschedule your appointment. Please be patient with us as we are rescheduling 2 months appointments. If you would like to get in for an appointment, we ask that you visit our website, unifytattoofl.com, and fill out the contact section. We will be in touch as soon as possible to get you scheduled.
Please if anyone around you has been sick or if you feel sick, reschedule your appointment. We will continue to honor all deposits for appointments affected by the shut down.
We are excited to finally be able to tattoo and we look forward to working with you!
ATTENTION:
All Tattooist’s and tattooing clients here’s a chance for your voice to be heard in Tallahassee. Please help!
Artist, clients and studio owners, the Florida Body Art community needs your help. We have not been given a reopening date, or classified in the phase system. Our governor has forgotten about us, and has not answered our request for a date for reopening after COVID-19 (SARs-CoV-19) pandemic. We are pleading with you, to follow this link and fill in the form for us. We need a reopen date and clarification.
Governor DeSantis has limited what the health department can do to help us reopen! When he signed the executive order on April 4th. Stating: Governor Ron DeSantis issued a stay-at-home order effective April 3, directing state residents to remain indoors and limit movement to obtaining "essential services" or conducting "essential activities." The order was later extended until 12:01 a.m. on May 4.
Please enter the information below in the comment section of the above link!
Governor DeSantis, I IMPLORE you to reconsider your decision and allow us to re-open sooner rather than later.
Body Art studios are safe establishments, our community is building in additional safety measures and precautions to deal with the pandemic conditions of COVID-19 (SARs-CoV-19). Our culture is built around safe sanitation measures. The Florida Health Department Body Art Program is one of the best in the country, and our minimum operational requirements and some adjustments are more than sufficient for us to return to work safely.
Please Governor DeSantis, for the sake of public health and preserving safe, healthy, and clean standards for body art: reopen our body art businesses. Allow us to work with the Florida Health Department to establish safe measures. You MUST allow us to reopen and feed our families, if you are not going to provide us with any help. Failure to re-open sooner, rather than later: is causing body artists to operate unsafely. You are driving body artists underground without guidance because we are left WITH NO OTHER OPTIONS. Our entire industry does not want to go back in time.
We are looking for a well rounded professional tattooer to join our crew here at Unify Tattoo Co. You must have a solid portfolio (no, instagram does not count) with a positive attitude. Absolutely NO DRUGS, DRAMA, OR EGO!! This is a family friendly environment and we are also a family. Please make sure that you are prepared for a thorough portfolio review. Please, no apprentices at this time.
We are happy to announce that we have added laser tattoo removal to the services we offer. For more information about removal, and if it is right for you, please click HERE or call the studio.
We will be doing Friday the 13th tattoo flash specials. First come first serve from 11am until 7pm Friday, December 13th. Walk-ins and cash only! Please call 904-770-7779 or stop by the shop for details!
Bring in a new unwrapped toy valued at $10.00 or greater, with proof of purchase and receive a raffle ticket to win a $300 gift certificate!

They are a non-profit corporation created as a rescue center for unwanted exotic animals as an alternative to euthanasia.

We are all animal lovers at the shop and would like to do what we can to help this organization out. Keep checking back for event updates and a list of participating artists for our art show.

We are pleased to include Skyler to the Unify Tattoo Co. family! Read on to learn more about Syler:
Skyler Del Drago is a tattoo artist who was born in the Bay Area of California but grew up in central Florida. Art has always played an active roll in his life. At the age of thirteen he joined the family business and started painting motorcycles and cars with his father. For the next 6 years he emerged himself into the world of custom painting. His father was extremely talented and motivated and really helped express to skyler the importance of creativity and expressing yourself through your passion! At the age of 19 Skyler was ready to take his knowledge and passion to the next level and committed to his art major in college.
While in school he began to get tattooed pretty regularly and he started to realize that the tattoo culture and lifestyle was what really fired him up. The pull to tattooing was unavoidable and eventually led him to start his apprenticeship in 2013. Skyler did a traditional apprenticeship which involved him committing 40 hours or more per week to the shop, without touching a tattoo machine. Taking his time and learning the process the right way set him up for success! His mentor stressed the importance of being versatile and always striving to learn more! Now Skyler is a well rounded artist with a strong passion to make awesome artwork in skin that will stand the test of time!
Here are a couple of examples of his work. To see more, check back here for an updated artist profile, check our FB page, or IG: skylerjinxtattoos.
Our very talented artist and dear friend, Dan Berk, will be leaving Unify Tattoo Company soon to open a new chapter in his life in California. Please contact the shop at your earliest convenience to wish him well on his new endeavors, get your last "Dan Berk" piece, or have your unfinished tattoo completed.
