Events & Brand Collaborations

Flash on tour.

Liv and the Unscripted Ink team take flash tattoos — including Ephemeral made-to-fade ink — into brand activations, press events, and recurring residencies across New York City. The same craft we bring to the studio, on location.

Flash tattoos have become the new photo booth at events — over 5 years of brand activations, press nights, and residencies.

Three formats.

From a one-night press activation to a year-long residency, we design the event around what your brand is trying to say — not around a rigid menu.

Brand Activations

Custom flash sheets designed for your brand, applied at your venue or ours. Guests leave with a piece of art aligned with your identity.

Press & Launch Events

A tattoo parlor inside a product launch, magazine party, or fashion pop-up. Ephemeral Ink means it fades in 9–15 months — an elegant way to memorialize a moment.

Recurring Series

Ongoing residencies like our weekly Tattoo Happy Hour with the Untitled Hotel. Built to recur, designed to feel considered each week — not a one-off.

Pricing

What to budget.

We build a package around your event, not the other way around. These are the two anchors we see most often — everything in between gets quoted from your specific guest count, venue, and creative brief.

<50 attendees

$2,000

One artist, roughly 10–15 tattoos over 3 hours. Pulled from our standard book of flash designs.

300+ attendees

$8,000+

Four artists, roughly 40–60 tattoos over 5 hours. Custom event-themed flash sheet designed for the brand.

À la carte

Fixed

Set-up

Every event includes full set-up and tear-down. We work hard to fit seamlessly into your venue and run of show.

Add-on

Custom flash

Designs that reflect your brand or event theme. Starts at $500 per sheet — typically 6–12 pieces.

Add-on

Artists

Scale the team to the room. Each additional artist starts at $1,500 per event, with more throughput at higher guest counts.

These are quote anchors, not a rate card — every event gets a custom quote.

Ephemeral Ink

Real tattoos. Made to fade.

We are certified to apply Ephemeral Ink — a bio-absorbable ink that heals like a real tattoo and naturally breaks down over 9 to 15 months. For brand events, it is the difference between a keepsake people wear for a year and a permanent commitment they may not want.
