“How do I get a tattoo from you”
1. Start with your idea
Before you book, it helps to have a rough sense of:
• What you want (subject, style, vibe)
• Where on your body you’d like it
• Approximate size (in inches or centimeters)
• Any reference images you like. You don’t need a perfect plan—just enough to start a conversation.
2. Submit a booking request
When you’re ready, fill out the booking form with:
• A brief description of your idea
• Placement and approximate size (in inches or cm if you can)
• Any reference images you have
• Your general timeline (e.g., “sometime in the next few months”)
You’ll be able to select a day and time that is available in my schedule.
You’ll receive email confirmations and reminders for your appointments, so please keep an eye on your inbox.
3. Consultation
• For small to medium pieces, consultations are up to 30 minutes to discuss your design ideas.
• Larger projects (sleeves, full backs, etc.) may need more time to work out details.
• Consultations are free, but a deposit is required before any custom artwork is created.
• The deposit is applied to the final price of the tattoo.
4. Deposit & securing your date
• Tattoos under 3 hours: $80 deposit
• Tattoos over 3 hours or larger surface areas: $150–$300 deposit
Deposits are required for all booked appointments and are non-refundable. They are applied toward the total cost of your tattoo.
For multi-session pieces, the deposit is held until the final session and then applied to the total.
Once your deposit is received, your appointment is secured and we’re locked in.
5. Design & appointment day
• All designs are approved in person before ink goes to skin.
• You’ll have time to check spelling, dates, and details, and request changes before the tattoo starts.
• Designs are not sent out before the appointment; adjustments are made during your session.
On the day, bring:
• A photo ID
• Your form of payment (cash or credit, if not already paid in full)
• Comfortable clothing and anything you need to stay relaxed (headphones, water, small snacks, etc.)
6. Rescheduling & Cancellations
• If you need to reschedule or cancel, please do so at least 24 hours in advance, or your deposit will be forfeited.
• No-shows forfeit their deposit.
• Deposits are valid for 90 days; exceptions can be discussed directly with me.
• If you reschedule more than three times within 90 days, your deposit will be forfeited.
• Sessions rescheduled due to illness do not forfeit the deposit—just let me know as soon as possible.
Clear communication makes this process better for everyone. Don’t be a dick, and I won’t be one back.
7. After your tattoo
Follow the aftercare instructions I give you in the studio. If you have any questions or concerns while healing, contact me as soon as possible. Proper aftercare is the other half of making sure your tattoo holds up for years.
