I am currently heavily prioritizing large creative freedom projects over customs.

there is a chance that I will not take your booking if you are looking for a piece around 5-6 inches.

un many other artists, I do not send designs before the appointment.

On the day of our appointment, I typically have at least one design prepared and mocked up to present to you in person based on the reference photos you've sent, placement and size you indicated through the form below. Of course, I don't expect people to love the design I have planned right off the bat (although lots of the time that's the case and it's smooth sailing from there) so I try my best to leave ample time to look over the design and make changes to your liking.

I try my best to leave enough time for minor adjustments (moving certain elements around, removing/adding sections). Entire redesigns and more major adjustments may either result in failure to follow-through with the appointment or require to book a new appointment, possibly resulting in another deposit fee (case to case rare occasion).

In the event that it is ultimately decided that we do not follow through with the appointment after an in-person consultation (scheduled on the say day as the appointment as I do not book separate consultation sessions) I will ask for a $60 payment to cover materials (I make sure to have everything set up prior to your arrival), transportation, and my time.

Due to this process, it is encouraged that you only proceed to book with me if you truly trust me and resonate with my most recent works (as opposed to my previous pieces from several months ago) and my current work only (not similar artists/styles, just my current work).

I will ask for a $100 deposit to confirm your appointment, this deposit is part of your total! Please be deposit ready. Again, the deposit is a part of your total tattoo cost, so you can pay the rest of the total at the end the appointment.

I am accepting deposits through Zelle, or you can use the confirmation email directly!

On the day of the appointment, the remainder can either be paid in cash or Zelle!

DO expect to pay full amount on day of! I do not offer any payment plans.

Venmo/CashApp/Paypal/etc. will not be accepted.

This deposit is non-refundable unless there are extenuating circumstances on my end and we agree on an alternative to make things right for you.

If for any reason I cancel the appointment, I will refund you your deposit!

Deposits are non-refundable for cancellations on the client's end, even if it is before the 48 hour time period.

Your appointment can be rescheduled at least 48 hours before your appointment at no additional charge -- this time frame allows me to potentially find another client that might fit into your appointment time! If you reschedule within the 48 hour time period, a $25 fee will be charged to rebook.

Please be advised that rescheduling on the day of will require you to book another appointment resulting in another deposit fee.

The cutoff for lateness is 15 minutes--if you are 15 minutes late to your appointment, there will be a a late fee of $30. After this grace period, every 10 minutes late is an added $10 to your total. Please keep in mind anything later than 30 minutes I may not be able to tattoo you that day due to appointments after yours! I understand things happen, but being late not only inconveniences me, but also the people who are scheduled after your appointment.

Your appointment is not confirmed until we have mutually agreed on a date/time and I've received your deposit. Your appointment is not confirmed until you receive an email with the subject line: "Confirmed: Your Tattoo Appointment With bladesinta...."

I maintain the right to reschedule appointments if necessary. If we are unable to reschedule due to an issue on my end, your deposit will be refunded.
