What Is a Get What You Get Tattoo?

Sometimes the hardest part of getting a tattoo is deciding what to get. That’s where Get What You Get comes in.

Instead of choosing your tattoo ahead of time, you give our Get What You Get machine a spin and let chance decide! Each capsule contains a surprise tattoo design, making the whole experience a little more spontaneous and a lot more fun.

At Linden Street Tattoo Company, every design in our Get What You Get machine is American traditional style, so while the exact design is a surprise, you know the style you’re signing up for.

How Does Get What You Get Work?

It’s pretty simple. You spin the machine, open your capsule, and reveal your tattoo design.

The fun is not knowing exactly what you’re going to get until you open it. If you love the design, you’re ready to go. If you want to take another chance, you can re-spin for an additional cost.

You can also choose whether you want your tattoo done in color or black and grey.

For current pricing, re-spin details, placement requirements, and all the rules, check out our Get What You Get Tattoo page before stopping in.

What Kind of Tattoos Are in the Machine?

Every design in our machine is American traditional style.

American traditional tattoos are known for bold outlines, strong imagery, and designs that read clearly on the skin. It’s a classic tattoo style that has been around for generations and continues to be one of the most recognizable styles in tattooing.

Our machine includes a variety of traditional flash-inspired designs, so every spin brings a different surprise while staying true to that classic traditional look.

Looking for a Pokémon Get What You Get Tattoo?

We have that too! Luke also has a Pokémon Get What You Get machine filled with Pokémon designs. Just like our regular Get What You Get, you spin the machine and let chance choose your tattoo.

If you’re a Pokémon fan and want to add a little more surprise to your next tattoo, check out Luke’s Pokémon Get What You Get designs or ask about them when you stop by!

Why Get a Get What You Get Tattoo?

The surprise is a big part of the fun.

Maybe you know you want another tattoo but have no idea what to get. Maybe you already collect American traditional tattoos and want to add something unexpected. Or maybe you and a friend want to do something spontaneous together.

Get What You Get takes some of the decision-making out of the process and turns getting tattooed into an experience.

You spin. You reveal your design. Then it’s time to get tattooed.

Is Get What You Get Good for a First Tattoo?

It can be! If you like American traditional tattoos and you’re comfortable letting chance choose your design, Get What You Get can be a really fun way to get your first tattoo.

If you already have a specific idea in mind, though, booking an appointment or choosing one of our regular flash designs may be a better fit. The whole point of Get What You Get is embracing the surprise.
