SHOP POLICIES

Appointments & Deposits

  • Each artist at our shop manages their own schedule and bookings, so availability and booking details may vary.

  • Outside of shop events, deposit amounts are set by each individual artist.

  • A deposit is required to secure your appointment.

  • Appointments are not considered confirmed until the deposit has been received.

  • Your deposit will be applied toward the final cost of your tattoo, unless otherwise noted by your artist.

About Deposits

  • Deposits help cover the artist’s time, preparation, and design work.

  • All deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable.

  • Deposits apply to one appointment only.

  • Larger projects, multiple sessions, or major changes may require additional deposits, depending on the artist.

Design Policy (Custom Work & Changes)

  • All custom tattoos are designed specifically for each client and artist.

  • If you decide to change your design after booking, your original deposit may be used as a design fee to account for time already spent creating the initial concept.

  • A new deposit may be required to move forward with the new design.

  • Small design tweaks are usually no problem, but larger changes may require extra time, fees, or a new appointment.

  • Design changes requested on the day of your appointment may be limited or may need to be rescheduled.

  • Pre-made (flash) designs can often be adjusted, depending on the artist.

  • Reference images or client-provided designs are welcome as inspiration; however, artists may redraw, modify, or decline designs that aren’t suitable for tattooing or conflict with artistic, safety, or copyright guidelines.

  • All design-related decisions are made at the artist’s discretion, with the goal of creating the best tattoo possible.

Rescheduling, Cancellations & No-Shows

  • We ask for at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to reschedule your appointment.

  • With proper notice, your deposit may be carried over one time, depending on the artist.

  • Late cancellations or rescheduling with less than 48 hours’ notice will result in loss of the deposit.

  • No call / no shows forfeit their deposit and will not be rescheduled.

  • Repeated missed appointments may require full payment upfront for future bookings or may result in declined bookings.

Walk-Ins

  • Walk-ins are welcome when artists are available.

  • Walk-in tattoos are usually best for smaller or simpler designs.

  • Wait times can vary and are not guaranteed.

  • A deposit may still be required for same-day tattoos.

  • The shop and artists reserve the right to decline walk-ins at any time.

Events & Guest Artists

  • Flash days, special events, and guest artist appointments may follow separate guidelines.

  • Event tattoos are often first-come, first-served, unless stated otherwise.

  • Event deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable.

  • Design choices, sizing, and placement may be limited during events.

  • Missed event appointments cannot be rescheduled or transferred.
