Attitude Above Ambition (About Us)
Mental Health Safe Space Tattoo Shop & Nail Salon
Mental Health Awareness is an important part of what Vagabond Saints is built upon. We are a part of the Mental Health Safe Space pilot program through St. Joe's Hospital/Mission Services. (For more information on this, click here)
Our shop is open to anybody in need of help or who needs a place to deal with their mental health.
We provide a stress-free environment for clients who would otherwise have anxiety regarding getting a tattoo or their nails done. We use rotary machines which are virtually silent and we can tailor the music/volume to ease those with sensory issues.
Proper pronouns are respected here!
We are also members of Erich's Cupboard and recently have teamed up with Outsider Insight to have further outreach. We are also suicide safeTALK trained.
