TERMS OF SERVICE
Please read over all rules and policies before sending in your deposit.
Deposits
If you need to cancel/reschedule your appointment for whatever reason, your deposit can be credited to your next session as long as you notify us at least 48 hours in advance to honor the deposit. This allows time for the artists to reschedule their time slot accordingly to other clients who may want it.
Rescheduling cannot be done via email or media messaging
A tattoo deposit is paid after a consultation with an artist to begin work on the tattoo design, and to book a tattoo appointment thereafter. For multi-session tattoos, the deposit will be held as payment towards the last session of the tattoo.
Your deposit goes towards the price of the tattoo. *DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE*
Upon paying a deposit I acknowledge that I have communicated my tattoo design idea to the artist to my satisfaction, and have reviewed the artist's prior works to decide that the artist can implement my idea to my satisfaction. I understand that creating a tattoo design based on a client's concept is subjective and that variations may exist between my concept and the finished design. If the finished design is not to my liking, minor changes will be made at the artist's discretion. However, I understand that substantial changes to the design or the request for an entirely new drawing or draft will require a new deposit and the original deposit will be forfeited as payment for the artist's drawing time.
No Drawings or drafts are emailed or otherwise previewed to clients before their scheduled appointment time.
The deposit will also be forfeited in full in the case of:
​
-
I do not appear for a tattoo appointment;
-
I cancel or reschedule an appointment without giving at least 48 hours' notice;
-
I arrive more than 20 minutes late to a tattoo appointment;
-
I reschedule 2 or more times for any sessions of the same tattoo, regardless of notice;
-
I fail to reschedule a new appointment within 30 days of a canceled appointment;
-
I arrive at a tattoo appointment without government-issued identification;
-
I arrive under the influence of any drugs or alcohol;
I understand that if I fail to appear for any scheduled tattoo appointment without giving my artist notice ("no call no show"), that I will be charged a no-show fee equivalent to one hour's time at my artist's current hourly rate, exclusive of and in addition to any deposit previously paid.
