How does the consultation process work?

BOOKING:

If your tattoo submission is accepted, you’ll be receiving an email on all of the information needed for the consultation. I will send you the  day and time available for the appointment, based on the information you gave on the booking form.

On the booking form, you’ll let me know the day and time that works best for you, along with your First/Last/ and phone number and details for your tattoo in the appropriate areas on the form.

You will be receiving an automated text as soon as you’re booked and have confirmed the ‘TATTOO SUBMISSION- ACCEPTED’ email.

A confirmation is needed 24 hours after the email is sent (email time stamp) to the client that was accepted in order to keep the appointments (consult and tattoo appointment)

I post on my stories 7-12 days after the 1st when emails have been sent out. The tattoo appointment is NOT booked until the consultation date and deposit are completed, it is just there to let you know the date and time that so you can plan accordingly. (Booked a few months out)

A day before the appointment, you will be receiving a CONFIRMATION text/email.

Please confirm the appointment so I can see it on my end that you will be showing.

If you do not want to reply to the text, I can always be reached through email to confirm.

(ex: appt is on Tuesday the 2nd 12:00pm then the confirmation needs to be before Monday the 1st at 12:00pm)

If it is not confirmed and I am not told 24 hours prior to the the appointment, the appt and/or deposit, it will be void. (You will have to leave another deposit and go through the same process if you are wanting to book again)

Some times there can be a bit of a wait during the consultations, I do appreciate your patience. I try to make them short, simple and accurate.

I am always happy to work with my clients budget but note that it can change the amount of detail and sizing.

(Bigger budget, more detail & bigger design- small budget, less detail & smaller design)

***PLEASE HAVE DESIGNS/IDEAS/PHOTO REFERENCES READY AT YOUR CONSULTATION***

PLEASE KNOW WHAT YOU ARE WANTING :

If ‘I don’t know what I want’ is your answer during the consultation and/or booking form, I will ask you to take some time to think it over a little longer and get back to me when you’re 100% sure of what you’re wanting and to try to book again when they open. Even if it’s a few random things but you don’t know how to put it together, that is helpful and what I’m here for! But a complete ‘I’m not sure what I want’ is not helpful. No tattoo regrets here! :)

CONSULT AND BOOKING COST:

All consultations are FREE but to book the tattoo appointment, a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit will be required. $100 minimum.

No exceptions.

All forms of payment are accepted. (Ex: Apple Pay, Zelle, PayPal, Venmo, cash)

There is a 3% fee for electronic payments.

The deposit will save your appointment date and can either be used at the end of the appointment once the tattoo is completed or it can be rolled over to save another appointment two months out.

If you do not leave a deposit at the time of the consultation, your spot will need to be replaced by another and I will ask you to book again when they open.

If you are out of state/more than an hour away, there will be an option in the form because there is a different booking process for you
