Tattooing Policies and Procedures
How do I book with you? The way my process currently works is that every couple of months I release pre-drawn designs. People will claim the design by purchasing it on here, and that purchase acts as the deposit for the design. I only tattoo these one time, they are not flash designs that are tattooed multiple times.
At this time I am also accepting custom requests. Go here for that: https://www.goreminders.com/book/5f442a92ef270ee2
Tell me about the designs? As mentioned above, I only tattoo these designs one time. Whoever purchases the design first, is the one who gets it! I will contact you once the design is purchased, and we can find a time to do the tattoo! I spend a lot of hours designing these, and they are typically a reflection of my favorite subject matters/elements to tattoo.
What is your pricing like? As of now, I am $200/hour, with a $400/ 2 hour minimum. I don’t really offer micro or small tattoos at this time, I prefer to do larger-scale work. Your deposit will also come off the price of your tattoo, at the final appointment (if applicable).
When is your appointment time? I am a bit unconventional with my appointment time as a tattoo artist. Currently I only offer appointments at 10AM, each appointment is never more than 5 hours unless previously discussed. I do work weekends to accommodate 9-5 workers!
What forms of payment do you take? Cash is required at appointment day, Venmo is how I typically take deposits. I will sometimes allow payment via Venmo, usually I ask that we discuss that prior to your appointment!
What are your policies for appointments?-
So I have a program that sends out a confirmation email/text two days before your appointment, and one day before your appointment I will send you the link to these policies. If you’re getting a custom piece, I do also send the design the night before. Be advised that this is not a common occurrence with tattoo artists, I personally choose to send the design beforehand, and I do demand that you don't send the design to everyone you know to get their opinions. This is your tattoo and I only care about your opinion on the design and will only allow a few changes anyway since it’s expected you trust me by choosing me as your artist and you have already described what you’re wanting. PLEASE make sure you are being specific to things you DO want and/or DO NOT want in your tattoo, especially if you’re giving me mostly artistic freedom, to ensure major design changes are not needed after I send the design to you.
- Things that will automatically forfeit your deposit or will require a new one to be put down:
-Being 15+ minutes late without any notice or communication.
-a non-emergency reschedule for the second time (you get one non-emergency reschedule without needing to put down another deposit as long as it is not outside of my 48 hour policy)
-Cancellation at any point
-Major design changes once the design is already sent the night before

NO, I do not allow the use of numbing cream. If you’re struggling, I can use Bactine during the tattoo, but I will NOT allow numbing creams to be used. I can likely guarantee I will be able to tell if you choose to not disclose that you put some on before arriving to your appointment, as it messes with your skin and messes with my ability to tattoo it. So if that is the case for you, I will stop the tattoo and you will be required to reschedule at my earliest date (probably around 3-5 months out) and also put down another deposit. Always always ask your artist about this, as most of us do not allow them, and with reason.

Please ask me if you are wanting to bring someone along to your appointment!

reschedules. My policy for reschedules allows for one non-emergency reschedule before you are required to put down another deposit. I typically book 3-6 months out, so I expect my time to be respected, as well as the time of others who have been waiting to get in with me. Because I send out the confirmation email/text two days before your appointment, two days/48 hours is my reschedule timeframe without being required to place another deposit. Be advised that this does not apply to emergency situations, this is more for people who do not confirm either way for their appointment during the asked timeframe for a non-emergency reason.
Can I join your waitlist? Currently I do not offer a waitlist. I will always post available days due to reschedules or cancellations on my instagram stories, where I also have a broadcast channel that you can join to see about reschedules and get early access to pre-drawn designs!
