Question 2

Cancellation Policy

Accepted Answer

•I DO send designs ahead of time. If you would like a design sent before the appointment I will send it within 24 hours of the appointment.  I do a consultation either in person or over the phone to make sure we go over everything. Please be as specific as possible during the consultation. During the consultation we will go over all the details of the tattoo and at the consultation I can show you a really rough sketch of what ideas we went over. I can make minor changes, but I cannot make major ones 48 hours before the appointment. If major changes need to be made we might need to reschedule on a case to case basis. If you wait to let me know that you want major changes made within 48 hours before appointment there will be a $100 non-refundable reschedule fee.

•If you do not bring a valid government ID you will need to reschedule and will be charged a $100 non-refundable/non-transferable reschedule fee.

•Do not come in sick, drunk, or hungover. It will count as a no call, no show and result in a $100 non-refundable/non-transferable reschedule fee!

•Do not come in with sunburn on the area to be tattooed.  I can not tattoo over sunburn. If we cannot place the design elsewhere it will count as a no call, no show and result in a $100 non-refundable/non transferable reschedule fee.

***There is no reschedule fee and your deposit will be valid in the case of emergency weather such as snow!!!!! No one should risk their lives for a tattoo!!!! We can reschedule at the earliest time possible and your deposit will still be valid!!!!  If emergency weather is in the forecast for the day of your appointment I will reach out via email to discuss our options.***

✿I do accept Afterpay! 
•If you plan on using Afterpay and have not used it before please let me know so I can explain how it works

✿There is a 3% fee if using card that includes Afterpay!!!

Question 5

Do you tattoo minors?

Accepted Answer

✿No, I will only tattoo 18+!!

✿You must bring valid government ID to your appointment or that will result in a no call no show and your deposit will be forfeited and you will be charged $100 non-refundable/non-transferable  to reschedule. No exceptions!

Question 6

What/where do you NOT tattoo?

Accepted Answer

✿Coverups and reworks are a case by case bases

✿I do not finish other artists work unless it’s under certain circumstances.

✿I do not tattoo in these areas:
	-privates
	-faces/heads unless you are heavily tattooed/over 25 years old
	-side of fingers
	-inside of lips

Question 7

Can I bring a guest?

Accepted Answer

✿You can bring one guest (must be over 18)! My studio isn’t small, but it can only fit so many people comfortably

Question 8

What does appointment only mean?

Accepted Answer

✿I schedule appointments that work for both my clients and I. I do try to accommodate clients work schedules as much as possible and not having set hours allows me to give that experience.

✿If I do have a day available for walk-ins I will post on both Instagram and Facebook, but I do not accept walk-ins on a normal basis.

Question 9

Can I use numbing cream?

Accepted Answer

✿Please let me know if you plan on using numbing cream and what brand you plan on using!!!!!!

✿You must patch test before your appointment

✿If you would like to use numbing cream I will send you instructions on how to apply it on for best results. If you need me to apply it on for you just bring the numbing cream. Please let me know if you will need me to apply it in advance.

✿I will use a numbing spray (Bactine) during the session as well. No one wants to be in pain for hours on end and being in pain makes the session hard on both you and I.

*Numbing cream can affect the tattoo by causing it to heal poorly
*Numbing cream increases infection risk
*Numbing cream and numbing spray will not take the pain away completely and for some people it does not work at all! 
*Numbing cream typically lasts a 2 to 3 hours if it works at all!
*Numbing spray gives maybe 30 to 45 minutes of some relief! 
*Numbing cream and numbing spray are a tool to help manage the pain, but it will not take the pain away fully!
*If you decide to use numbing cream I am not liable for any reaction you have before, during, or after the tattoo

Question 10

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

✿Drink a lot of water!!!!!

✿Eat a meal at least 1 to 2 hours before your appointment

✿Lotion the area everyday for a week leading up to appointment. Exfoliate the area every other day for a week leading up to the appointment. Do no exfoliate day before or day of appointment. Dry skin can make it difficult to tattoo! Moisturized skin leads to better results!

AVOID:

✿Alcohol for 24 hours prior to tattoo!
	•If you come in hungover or drunk your appointment will need to be rescheduled and you will be charged a $100 non-refundable/non=transferable reschedule fee.

✿Sun!
	•I cannot tattoo over sunburn, rashes, open wounds, eczema, or other skin conditions.
	•If you come in with any of these on the area that will be getting tattooed your appointment will need to be rescheduled and you will be charged a $100 non-refundable/non-transferable reschedule fee.
	•If you come in with any of these skin conditions and the tattoo is able to be placed somewhere without any of these skin conditions then we will still be able to have your appointment and we will not need to reschedule.
