Booking
Appointments can be booked 60 days in advance here. Please email directly if you need clarification about the process or need to coordinate your appointment around travel.
Booking Process
All clients must complete the booking form to receive appointment confirmation. The artist may need to adjust date/times requested and will contact you directly if necessary. Filling out a form does not guarantee an appointment. Please give up to 7 business days for a response to your request. When confirmed by the artist, a non refundable deposit must be made within 48 hours to secure your appointment. No exceptions.
Tattoo requests require a non-refundable drawing fee/deposit of $100 to book an appointment. Large scale/multiple session projects require a $200 deposit. All deposits are applied to your final tattoo session.
Consultations
In the event of large scale projects, cover ups, or working with an area that has significant scar tissue, a 30 minute consultation by Zoom or in person may be required. This is a complimentary service and can be requested via email.
Custom Designs
Tattoo Drawings are presented at your appointment. Scheduling allows ample time to include minor adjustments if needed. In the event client requests major edits, the artist may reschedule your session for a later date.
There is a $200 advanced drawing fee for anyone that wants access to their design before their appointment. This does not apply to the cost of your tattoo.
Rates
The current hourly rate for custom work is $200, with a session minimum of $200. Day rate for large scale pieces and projects is currently $800. Flash pricing is based on a variety of factors including size, detail, and placement.
There is limited monthly availability for sliding scale payment- please reach out via email for more details.
Rescheduling/Cancellation
Life happens. In the event you need to reschedule, pleased try to give early enough notice as possible to be able to fill your spot in a timely manner. In the event that you reschedule/cancel/no show within 72 hours, your deposit is forfeited and a new one will be required to book a new appointment. One reschedule is allowed per deposit.
A google calendar invite will be sent to you after submitting your deposit- the client is responsible for remembering their appointment date and time.
