Deposit Policy + Pricing
Please fill out a tattoo appointment request form in order to get scheduled. If we have corresponded via Email or Instagram DM, you don’t have to fill out a request form.
A $100 deposit is required for all tattoo appointments and it is non-refundable. The deposit will be subtracted from the final price after your tattoo. This also contracts me to make preparations for your design prior to the appointment. Deposits can be made with cash in person, at the studio, through Venmo or Zelle. If for some reason you need to reschedule I require a 24 hour notice. Please reschedule if you are sick or feeling unwell. Your deposit is transferable so long as you give at least 24 hours, otherwise I will require an additional deposit to re-book your appointment. ‘No call, no show’ will forfeit your deposit. Please be considerate of my time and effort. :)
Tattoos are priced based on size, placement, and design and I will give an estimate beforehand. If you have a price range in mind please let me know so that I can consider it during the design process. The shop minimum is $150. I am cash only and there is an ATM located at the studio. There is a fee with the ATM so I would suggest bringing cash along with you on the day of your appointment. I accept Venmo and Zelle as well. Palm sized tattoos are priced around $250, Hand-sized tattoos around $350-400
On the day of your appointment I will have a drawing prepared to show you. If you aren’t happy with the design, don’t hesitate to let me know so that it can be changed. Please be reasonable with any requests you may have.
Tattoos are permanent so be sure you are sure!
I offer free consultations which can be done in person at the studio. If you’d like to set up a consultation, please email me. If you have any reference photos please share them with me via email as well.
I guarantee my work by offering a free touch up after your tattoo is healed and settled, until the one year mark. If for some reason you are unsatisfied with how your tattoo has healed, please reach out so that we can arrange a touch up.
Aftercare
Hygiene is the most important part of healing your tattoo.
If you are using DERM SHIELD to heal your tattoo:
Derm Shield is a latex-free, transparent matte film adhesive bandage. It eliminates scabbing and reduces the risk of scarring, while preventing exposure to bacteria, dirt, and abrasion. Derm Shield is waterproof, but permeable to allow skin perspiration, and it is durable enough to keep up with your everyday activities with a peace of mind and body. Derm Shield allows your skin to breathe during the healing process.
***If you are prone to skin reactions, have allergies to adhesive, or have sensitive skin I would strongly suggest not using Derm Shield, or any other type or waterproof bandage that uses an adhesive.
Keep your Derm Shield on for 3-5 days
To remove Derm Shield, peel it by pulling it slowly from the edge back over itself. Do not pull the bandage upwards.
After removing, wash your tattoo with DIAL GOLD LIQUID ANTIBACTERIAL SOAP and warm water, use only your hands, no wash cloths or harsh fabrics. Let air dry or pay dry with clean paper towel. You can begin applying a FRAGRANCE FREE WHITE LOTION.
Continue washing your tattoo 3 times a day until it is fully healed, Keep it clean and dry!
If you are not using Derm Shield:
Remove Bandage 1-2 hours after your tattoo appointment. For larger pieces you may leave it on longer or overnight.
Wash your hands first, then gently wash your tattoo 3-4 times a day with DIAL GOLD LIQUID ANTIBACTERIAL SOAP and warm water. Use only your hands, no wash cloths or harsh fabric. Let the tattoo air dry or pat dry with a clean paper towel.
After the first 48 hours, start applying a thin coat of FRAGRANCE FREE WHITE LOTION after washing. Stay away from fragrance, perfume, and dyes.
Do not pick or scratch your tattoo. Do not swim or soak your tattoo for at least 2 weeks. Keep it clean and out of direct sunlight while healing. Make sure sheets and towels are clean. You do not want anything getting into your tattoo. If you have pets, you should avoid them licking or getting pet dander into your tattoo.
