Policies & Pricing
✦ Deposits
A $100 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment. Deposits can be sent via Venmo, Zelle, or CashApp and will be applied toward the final cost of your tattoo.
Once you select a date from my calendar (link provided via email), your appointment will be held for 48 hours without a deposit. If the deposit is not received within that timeframe, the date may be released. Extensions can be arranged - just let me know.
Deposits are non-refundable and will be forfeited in the event of a no-show or cancellation.
Rescheduling:
One reschedule is allowed per deposit. You must provide at least 48 hours’ notice to retain your deposit. Late reschedules will require a new deposit.
Deposit Expiration:
Deposits are valid for 6 months from the date of payment. If your appointment is not scheduled within this timeframe, the deposit will be forfeited.
✦ Pricing
Most tattoos are priced by session based on size, placement, detail, and overall complexity.
You don’t need to choose a session when booking — I’ll recommend the best option after reviewing your idea.
✦ Minimum — $200
For tiny designs, minimal script, and very small pieces.
✦ Short Session — $400–$500
Best for smaller custom pieces, fine line work, simple botanicals, and palm-sized designs.
✦ Half Session— $700
Best for medium-sized custom pieces with more detail, shading, ornamental elements, or larger placement areas.
✦ Full Session— $1200
Best for large-scale illustrative pieces, highly detailed designs, sleeves, large compositions, and ongoing projects.
(See examples below for size and pricing references)
Please note that large-scale projects (such as sleeves) often require multiple sessions and cannot always be quoted precisely in advance.

Card payments are not accepted at this time.
✦ Design Process
Your design will be fully prepared and presented at your appointment.
Small adjustments can be made on the day - please feel comfortable speaking up. I want you to love your tattoo :)
Significant design changes or redraws will require rescheduling.
To ensure the best result, please be as detailed as possible when submitting your tattoo idea.
