DEPOSIT POLICY
The deposit is paid at the consultation appointment when a date and time for your tattoo are set. This reserves time and in case of a cancellation covers a small portion of the time used to prepare for the tattoo. When a client does not show up for their appointment, the artist loses money for the lost tattooing time and time spent creating the design. Therefore I adhere to the following policy:
•Deposits are non-refundable and cash only.
•Deposits cannot be carried over to another artist or tattoo project.
•The deposit is subtracted from the total cost of the tattoo at the last tattoo appointment when the tattoo is complete and finished.
•The total deposit required will be based on the amount of time reserved on the schedule, with a minimum being $100.
•I do my best to keep appointments as scheduled. However, on the rare occasion, I must reschedule the appointment your deposit will be carried over.
•If you cannot keep your scheduled tattoo appointment, please notify me at least 72 hours in advance.
I DO NOT PREVIEW TATTOO DESIGNS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
You will see your design day of the tattoo appointment where revisions will be made together. If that will be a problem do not put a deposit down.
The following will forfeit your deposit:
•Not showing up for an appointment.
•Cancellation of appointment less than 48 hours prior to appointment time.
•More than 20 minutes late to the appointment without timely notification.
•While small alterations and changes to the tattoo design are fine and expected – an excess of add-ons, changes, or if you decide you’d prefer a different tattoo altogether after the consultation – the deposit will then be forfeited and a new appointment will need to be scheduled.
•Two or more reschedules.
When the deposit becomes void, a new deposit is required before rescheduling or keeping any future appointments previously set.
