Do I do Late nights/weekends?

I tattoo between Tuesday and Saturday between 10am and 4:00pm 

Will it hurt?

All tattoos will hurt to a degree (for most of us anyway!)  some spots are more sensitive than others, and everyone is different, so what was excruciating for one may be totally fine for you! Feel free to ask me for advice on placement if you are worried about the pain!

Do you offer payment plans?

Unfortunately I currently do not offer any payment plans, deposits are made by bank transfer, and the banking info will be given when we confirm a suitable date and time. The remaining balance needs to be paid on the day either in cash or via bank transfer after the completion of your session - please don’t drip feed me money prior to appointment time. 

How do I look after it?

Please have a look at the aftercare section on my website!

Do you offer touch ups?

I will offer one touch up, up to 12 months after your appointment, free of charge, any further touch ups required will be a minimum of $150! Please not places like hands and feet are prone to fading fast and I will not offer free touch ups on those!

Do you have vouchers?

Vouchers are available - please submit a contact form expressing your interest.

Do you have Eftpos?

At the present moment I don't offer Eftpos as a payment option in the studio.

Can I come for a consult?

I do offer consults, however to utilise my time I ask that you do your best to describe your concept via the submission form, we can absolutely book in a time for a consult if necessary.

Can I bring a support person?

Absolutely! Please just be mindful that this is a small space so keeping it to as few people possible is always recommended. 

What if I don't like the design?

There is an expectation that if you have inquired with me for a tattoo, that you have researched and understand my style of work and artistry, and that there is an element of trust in my design skills and style. HOWEVER - If you don't like your design it is so important to speak up and feel safe doing so - my end goal is always to make you happy and am not easily offended! If the changes still fit within my wheelhouse I will be able to make small and minor changes to tweak it, any huge changes that may mean a full re draw  will be up to my discretion based off how much drawing it may take me. You may be asked to re book if this is the case but will always try my best! 

RESCHEDULES / What if something comes up and I can't make my appointment?

I allow one reschedule per paid deposit - reschedules must be made at least 2 days prior to your appointment otherwise we will need to rebook you with a new deposit. Please contact us ASAP if you need to reschedule.

If are a repeat rescheduler (I know some of y’all can’t help it) you will be asked to front half of your appointment as a non refundable deposit.  Please respect this, it always makes me awkward to ask but unfortunately shuffling an appointment multiple times can leave me with big calendar gaps!  

Please note if you cancel / reschedule on a Saturday Booking more than once I will no longer book you on a weekend spot - these are my most requested days so make a huge impact on my work if there are multiple reschedules. 

If you no show you will not be booked with me again! 

What happens if I'm late?

Please do your best to make your appointment on time -however if you are going to unavoidably late, please email me as soon as possible with an expected time of arrival.

If you are more than 30 minutes late to your appointment with no prior communication this will be treated as a no-show with a forfeit of deposit. I will leave the studio after 30 minutes of no communication. 

If you are running over 30 late you may be charged for this time. 

How old do I have do I have to be? 

strictly 18+.

How do you decide the price/ how do you charge the pieces?

This is a fun one to try explain !

I charge by the piece rather than by the hour - I I’ll either give you an exact quote or a rough estimate if I’m not 100% sure on final details etc.  this is a ballpark but you will never be charged above that quote.

If you ask for extra elements to the tattoo or to change sizing or any other details I will always confirm and check the quote you before starting as this may affect the original quote . 

 there are many contributing factors to consider - is this something I tattoo often and comfortably, how large the piece is, the placement, draw time, complexity, elements, detail, levels of shading etc.
