A tattoo artist who comes to your home in Olongapo
Olongapo is the most built-up of the six areas confirmed so far, and that changes the arrangements more than it changes the work. A unit in a building and a house on a lot are the same session and a different afternoon.
There is no studio to visit, here or anywhere: the work happens at the address you give, on a date arranged in advance.
Where this is
A city on the northern edge of Subic Bay. It is independent of Zambales rather than part of it, though it is surrounded by the province on three sides.
What to put in the enquiry
Name the barangay, and say whether the address is a house, an apartment or a unit in a building. A building changes the arrangements rather than the tattoo: whether there is a lift, where a vehicle can stop, and whether reception needs a visitor logged in advance.
How the visit runs in Olongapo
In a house, the dining table is usually the working surface and there is nothing to arrange beyond clearing it. In an apartment or a condominium there are two extra things, and both are easier settled a day early than at the door: whether a visitor has to be logged or signed in, and whether there is a lift, because a kit that is carried up five flights is carried, not wheeled.
Where this sits on the round
Olongapo sits at the bay end of the road the other three Zambales areas are strung along, and it is also where the artist starts from, so of the six confirmed places this is the one he is already in. That is the whole of the advantage: the work, the kit and the time it takes are the same here as anywhere else on the list.

Is there a Lab of Ink studio in Olongapo?
Asked from OlongapoNo, and not anywhere else either. There is no shop to walk into, no address to visit and no second location. One artist travels to the address you give, which is the whole of what this is. If you were looking for somewhere to walk in, this is not it, and it is better to know that now than after an enquiry.
How the travel charge works
Two amounts, quoted together. The tattoo is priced on size, detail and how long it takes. Travel is priced on how far your address is from the artist, and it is a separate line rather than something folded into the tattoo price.
The travel is yours to pay, on top of the tattoo, and no figure for either is published on this site. A travel charge that ignored distance would be wrong for almost everyone, so it is worked out once you name where you are.
What you provide
A table, a chair you can sit still in for a few hours, a power socket and decent light. That is the whole list. The artist brings everything else, including the covering that goes over your table before anything is opened.
Nothing is bought or borrowed at your end, and nothing used is left behind.
The other areas confirmed so far
Five others, and not being on the list is not a no. If your town is in Luzon it is worth asking; if it is on Visayas or Mindanao, it is not covered.
If you are in Olongapo
Give the barangay, and say whether it is a house or a unit in a building. That one sentence is usually the difference between a date being agreed in one exchange and in three.
