Terms &
Conditions
Last updated 2025
Please read through the following terms and conditions carefully before booking an appointment. These policies are in place to ensure clarity, fairness and enough time to properly prepare each custom tattoo project.
Deposits & Booking
Appointments are only reserved once a deposit has been paid. Tattoo designs are also only started once the deposit has been received.
Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy
Deposits are forfeited if an appointment is cancelled or moved within 8 days of the appointment date. You are welcome to reschedule or cancel before this timeframe. Short notice cancellations make it very difficult for me to fill the appointment space and plan work consistently. Please also keep in mind that tattoo designs are usually prepared around one to two weeks before the appointment date.
Custom Tattoo Design Revisions
Custom tattoo designs include up to 3 design revisions. Creating custom artwork can be very time consuming, so additional revisions beyond this may involve extra costs. Please try to come to the consultation with as clear an idea as possible regarding concept, placement and overall direction.
Client Responsibility
It is the client's responsibility to carefully check the design before the tattoo appointment begins. This includes spelling, placement, sizing, references, symbolic meaning and all other design details.
Pricing
Tattoo projects are priced individually rather than strictly by size or time. A price estimate will be discussed before the appointment, usually within a minimum and maximum range depending on the complexity of the project. Factors such as detail, placement, skin type and design changes during the appointment may affect the final price. Large scale projects such as sleeves, back pieces or ongoing multi-session work may instead be charged per session/day due to the scale of the project.
Touch Ups
A free touch up is included if needed, unless otherwise specified. Touch ups must be completed between 6 weeks and 3 months after the tattoo appointment to allow enough time for proper healing while still reviewing the tattoo within a reasonable timeframe.
Deposit Refunds
Once the tattoo design process has begun, deposits are non-refundable. Design work is often started two weeks before the appointment date. Once time has been invested into preparing the artwork, the deposit can no longer be refunded.
Please Do Not…
Please avoid the following situations, as I may be unable to tattoo you on the appointment day and may need to reschedule.
Please Don’t Attend Your Appointment If You Are Sick
Tattooing involves long periods of close contact, making it very easy for illnesses to spread. If you are feeling unwell, please let me know as soon as possible so we can arrange another appointment date and transfer the deposit to the rescheduled date. As a self-employed artist, becoming sick can result in the cancellation of multiple client appointments and long delays for other clients who have been waiting for their sessions. Thank you for understanding and helping keep both the studio and other clients safe.
Please Don’t Bring a Child Unless Another Adult Is Present
Children and babies are very welcome in the studio, however there must be another adult present who is not being tattooed and can fully supervise them during the appointment. Tattooing requires long periods of focus and concentration, particularly for detailed realism and colour work. The studio is also a shared working environment with multiple artists and clients, so we ask that noise and disruptions are kept to a minimum where possible.
Please Don’t Bring a Dog or Pet to the Studio
Although I love animals, pets are unfortunately not allowed in the tattoo studio unless they are registered service animals. Some clients may have allergies, fears or anxiety around dogs and other animals, and unexpected barking or distractions can make it difficult for artists to fully focus during detailed tattoo work. For hygiene, safety and comfort reasons, I kindly ask that pets are left at home during your appointment.
Please Don’t Arrive Intoxicated
Please do not arrive to your appointment under the influence of alcohol or drugs. For safety and consent reasons, I am unable to tattoo clients who are intoxicated.
Please Keep Guests to a Minimum
I completely understand that it is nice to have support during your appointment, however due to the size of the studio I kindly ask that guests are kept to a minimum where possible. The studio is a shared working environment with multiple artists and clients throughout the day, and large groups can quickly make the space crowded and distracting, sometimes even leaving other paying clients without seating.
Deposit Rules
The deposit system is in place to reserve your appointment date and cover the time spent preparing your custom tattoo design.
All appointments require a €50 deposit. A day session booking requires a €100 deposit. This deposit is deducted from the final tattoo price and appointments cannot be reserved without it.
If you arrive more than 30 minutes late without contacting me or the studio, the appointment may be cancelled and the deposit forfeited.
Once the tattoo design process has started, the deposit becomes non-refundable. Designs are usually prepared around 2 weeks before the appointment date.
If you would like to cancel your appointment and receive a deposit refund, this must be done before the design process has begun.
Appointment dates can be moved or rescheduled up to 8 days before the booked appointment date. Rescheduling within the 8 day period will result in the original deposit being forfeited and a new deposit being required for the new appointment date.
