APPOINTMENT & DEPOSIT POLICY
To secure your appointment it is necessary to send a deposit.
It covers the time what we spend designing your tattoo, the materials and it is a compensation for cancellation or no show.
ALL DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. Your deposit will be deducted from the final price and the remaining cost of your tattoo must be paid on the day of your appointment (either cash or card). If you change your mind and would like to go with a different design than what was discussed meanwhile the booking process, you will need to leave a new deposit for your new design request. If you need to reschedule your appointment, you have to give a 48 hours notice otherwise you will loose your deposit.
If you don't call or not showing up without a notice, your appointment will not be rescheduled.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM LATE?
Please arrive on time for your appointment. If you are late it disrupts our schedule and it can cause that we don't have enough time to finish your tattoo (so it is possible that you need to book another appointment). More than 15 minutes late could lead to cancellation!
If you are not able to arrive on time, please notify us as soon as possible.
DO I HAVE TO MENTION MY MEDICAL CONDITION TO MY TATTOO ARTIST?
Definitely! It is very important that you let us know (before your appointment) If you have a medical condition or If you are on any kind of prescription medication (for example acne medications, antibiotics, blood thinners, anti-rejection drugs).
Affected conditions for example: Heart condition, Diabetes, Haemophilia, HIV, Hepatitis , Severe allergies, Epilepsy.
WHEN WILL I SEE MY DESIGN?
We will begin to work on your design after a non-refundable deposit has been made. You will see the drawing on the day of your appointment. It is possible to make simple changes to the design at this time. But If you have changed your mind about the subject completely and an entirely new design needs to be done it will require another deposit and probably a new appointment.
DO YOU USE ANY NUMBING CREAM?
I prefer not to. Please be honest and don't show up wearing a numbing cream without letting me know. It can lead to a cancellation and your deposit will be lost.
CAN/WILL YOU COPY SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK?
Reference pictures are really helpful to get a starting point so we can imagine your idea. But we don't reproduce a tattoo that is owned by someone else already. Based on the informations you gave us, we create an original design for you.
