The Temporary Tattoo Parlor is a location within Canbodia where you can get temporary tattoos that provide you with certain benefits.

It becomes accessible during Mission 13 of the Canbodian Adventures.

Tattoo Mechanics

Tattoos bestow various beneficial effects onto your hobo. These effects vary from better stat gains at the University to increased can-finding frequency while exploring the city.

Tattoos can only be purchased, retouched, and removed at the Temporary Tattoo Parlor in Canbodia.

You may only have one tattoo at a time.

A tattoo lasts for a maximum of thirty days. However, it loses its effectiveness over time and begins to fade. There are four fade levels: level 3 (30-21 days left), level 2 (20-11 days left), level 1 (10-1 day(s) left), and level 0 (0 days left). When a tattoo reaches level 0, it completely disappears, along with the benefits it bestowed upon you.

The duration and effects of faded tattoos can be renewed by having them retouched at the Temporary Tattoo Parlor. The cost of retouching a tattoo is dependent upon the tattoo itself and its current fade level.

A tattoo can be removed prematurely in case you do not want it or want another one instead. Removing a tattoo costs $50,000, so make sure you have that amount on hand when you go to get it removed.

Keep in mind that a tattoo cannot be overwritten by another tattoo. If you want a tattoo different from the one you already have, you will either have to get it removed or wait until it completely fades away.

The tattoo you currently have is displayed on your public profile for everyone to see.

There are currently six tattoos. The first three slightly increase one kind of combat stat gain at the University; they are automatically unlocked for you once you are able to get tattoos at the Temporary Tattoo Parlor. The last three have various non-combat benefits and must be unlocked.

Tattoo Flash Book

The Tattoo Flash Book is a purchasable item that allows you to unlock three additional tattoos. It cost $100,000 and can be purchased from the Oracle at the Temporary Tattoo Parlor. Once you have possession of the Tattoo Flash Book, you can begin the process of unlocking more tattoos. After becoming unlocked, the tattoos will become permanently available options for the Oracle to brand you with for a substantially higher price than her usual tattoos.
