BOOKING, DEPOSIT, CONSULT & DESIGN PROCESS
STUDIO TERMS, CONDITIONS & POLICIES
You must be age 18+ or 16-18 with the consent of a parent or legal guardian. The parent/guardian will be required to come into the studio to sign a form consenting to design and placement on the day of your appointment.
A non-refundable deposit is required to secure all bookings. Deposits are deducted from the total cost of the tattoo on completion on the day of your booking. Deposits need to be paid at the time of making the appointment as this is what secures your booking. We require a minimum of three business days’ notice to reschedule an appointment; if we receive less than the required notice your deposit will be retained by us to offset loss of income as we are unable to fill spaces at short notice – this includes cancellations for Covid-related matters. Deposits can be paid via bank transfer however, the final balance will need to be paid in cash on the day of your appointment UNLESS using Afterpay.
If you are paying either in full or partially by voucher please let us know at the time of booking.
If we receive less than 3 working days’ notice that you want to reduce your tattoo appointment time/tattoo size, you will be charged the FULL AMOUNT originally quoted.
Designs are drawn on the day and will not be ready to view prior to this. Based on the consult (which will either be face to face or via email/messenger) between client and artist and any reference images/material provided, a drawing will be ready to view on the day of your booking with enough time allowed for any adjustments/alterations to be made by the artist to the design/size/proportions and once finalised a stencil will be made and can be tried on for placement.
Please arrive on time to your appointment (no more than 10 minutes early and not more than 5 minutes late)
Please feel free to bring a bottled drink, snacks, headphones, phone charger or anything you feel you may need to remain comfortable and occupied during your tattoo sitting.
Provided you follow the tattoo aftercare guidelines that your artist will outline on completion of your tattoo (we can tell if a tattoo has not been adequately cared for) one touch up (if required) will be provided at no charge. However, clients must contact us and have their touch up scheduled and completed within 3 months of the original tattoo being done. Please ensure you give plenty of notice if a touch up is required. This touch up guarantee DOES NOT apply to finger tattoos, certain areas of the hand and/or foot – this clause will be discussed prior to booking the tattoo if you wish to have one of these non-guaranteed areas tattooed. If you do not show up for your scheduled touch-up or fail to give us a minimum of three business days’ notice to reschedule, you have waived the touch-up no charge guarantee and will be charged our minimum rate.
If you do not wish to have your tattoo photographed and/or used for our advertising purposes on a public forum please advise us PRIOR to booking and paying a deposit as we reserve the right to either decline or go ahead with the tattoo – this being a large part of our advertising and business promotion.
You can bring one support person only along to your appointment.
No children. No exceptions.
