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, and complexity.
You don’t need to select a session when booking—I’ll guide you through the best option.

Minimum: $200

  • Short Session - $400-$500
    Ideal for small to palm-sized pieces, fine line, or simple designs.

  • Half Day - $700
    Best for medium pieces such as detailed forearm, arm, or calf tattoos.

  • Full Day - $1200
    Recommended for larger-scale work like thighs, sleeves, larger compositions, or ongoing projects.

  • For very small tattoos (such as minimal script or tiny designs), pricing starts at $200 and may not require a full session.

(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.

✦ Payment

Accepted payment methods:

  • Venmo

  • CashApp

  • Zelle

  • Cash

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.

✦ Booking Requirements

You will not be tattooed if you:

Children are not allowed in the studio under any circumstances.

✦ Tattoo Restrictions

I do not offer:

  • Finger tattoos

  • First tattoos on ribs

  • Face tattoos (unless you are heavily tattooed)

  • Offensive or inappropriate designs

I reserve the right to decline any project or placement that does not align with my work or comfort level.

✦ Schedule & Communication

Appointments typically begin at 10:00 AM (starting June/July 2026).

⏱️ Sessions require a minimum of 3 hours, and I recommend keeping your day open to allow for flexibility.

If your project is accepted, please be ready to submit your deposit within 48 hours of receiving your confirmation email.

Response Time:
Please allow 7–10 days for a reply. I typically respond to inquiries on Mondays and Tuesdays.
