Frequently Asked Questions
* I am typically booked out about 6 months, so I am no longer doing first come first serve. I have a style and will be focusing on clients who allow artistic freedom. That being said, I will always try my best to get as many of you in as I can! If the tattoo you're wanting isn't necessarily my style, as long as it's within my wheelhouse, I will try to squeeze you in. If I'm not comfortable attempting the tattoo you're wanting, I will refer you to another artist.
How to Book
* Click the "Book Now" button and read the policy at the top of the page before completely filling out form.(Only available when books are open)
By submitting the form, you're agreeing to the policy.
* If you do not see the "Book Now" button at the top of the page, that means my books are currently closed. The form is only available when my books are open. Otherwise, you can subscribe for updates on openings and when my books will open again.
Deposits
* I take a non-refundable $40 deposit that comes out of the price of the tattoo.
* I completely understand that life happens. If you need to cancel your appointment, even the day of, please let me know! That's all I ask.
* Failure to do so, or not responding to me when I ask if you're coming will result in not being booked again in the future. No Exceptions.
* Do Not send me a deposit until you get a date confirmation! (If you already did, it's ok! I keep forgetting to tell everyone)
* Failure to pay the deposit after 3 days from confirmation, the appointment is automatically cancelled.
Forms
* Once you've submitted a form, I will text you a quote and available dates. I get dozens of emails, so the response will be slow!
* Please be patient with us. You do not need to email or text me telling me you submitted a form, this just gives me more to go through.
* If you do not receive a response by the time my books open again, email/text me and I will get you taken care of. Sometimes emails get lost.
* Please fill out the form as best as you can! If you're unsure of exactly what you want, knowing what area of the body you're wanting it on, and subject matter helps. Sometimes I get forms that say "I don't know" to every question. If this is the case, then perhaps you need more time to figure that out. Try again next time. Not knowing anything about what you want prevents me from knowing how much time to set aside for you, and giving you a price. It also creates a lot of back and forth that I'm trying to eliminate with the form.
* You can fill out one form for more than one tattoo and more than one person! If you are wanting several small tattoos but don't have enough room in the form, just mention that in the additional comments at the bottom of the form and we can discuss it when I get back to you!
* If we are working on a large piece that requires more than one appointment, I will make you extra appointments when I respond to your form. If we still need more appointments to finish your piece, we will make appointments accordingly, you will not have to wait for my books to reopen.
No Form, No Appointment
* If you're continuously messaging me on Facebook/Instagram asking for an appointment, you're not getting one. No Form, No Appointment.
Drawings & Designs
* I do the designs for your tattoo the evening before the appointment. If it's really simple I will sometimes do them the day of, when you're there.
* I do not do drawings earlier, and I do not do drawings if you do not have an appointment. I make time in the appointment for changes if need be. I know for some this can be nerve racking, waiting until the day before to see your design. You will get the design you want, and we will not put anything on your body you're not 100% happy with.
Touch ups & Cover ups
* First Touch up is free, $50 fee for every touch up after the first.
* I no longer do cover ups, so if you need something covered, I can refer another artist for you.
* I will rework or fix up old tattoos if I feel like it is something I am capable of.
What to bring to your appointment
* Please do not come early. I will be occupied with another client or preparing for your appointment, and your time scheduled includes any time needed for going over your tattoo design, etc.
* Please bring your government issued ID! I cannot tattoo you without it.
* Stay hydrated! Start hydrating several days leading up to your appointment, this will help the experience as well as the outcome.
* Bring things that will make you comfortable for long periods of time; headphones, a book, snacks/drinks, pillow/blanket
I'm not a machine
* If you feel like you may have been forgotten, please let me know!
Things do get lost in the shuffle sometimes and I may forget to respond to you. Don't be afraid to remind me, you are never bothering me!
* Thank you all so much for your patience!
