Pricing
Our pricing reflects the time, skill, and care we put into every tattoo. Factoring in hourly rate accounts for from the beginning of your appointment time until the end of the session when the tattoo is finished.
Smaller pieces does not mean less time and less price, some smaller pieces are more difficult and require more detail to complete and that will reflect in your quote (ex: fine line and dot work may be more).

Designs & Artwork
We take pride in creating unique, custom tattoos that reflect your vision while respecting our style and expertise.
Small Designs
For smaller tattoos, the final design is presented at your appointment.
Minor tweaks (e.g. resizing, slight adjustments) are allowed at the appointment.
Major changes will result in forfeiture of deposit.
Large Designs / Multi-Session Projects
For larger tattoos, we schedule a design review before your appointment.
Clients may request one major revision and up to two minor tweaks during this review.
Major revision: significant changes like a different pose, style, or concept
Minor revision: small adjustments such as moving elements or resizing
At the appointment, clients may request minor adjustments only.
Any additional revisions beyond these limits may require a redraw fee or new deposit.
Deposits & Commitment
A 50% deposit is required to secure your design and appointment.
Deposits are applied to the final session and are non-refundable.
Deposits are valid for 6–8 weeks, and the appointment must be booked within this window.
Client Collaboration & Expectations
We ask clients to trust our expertise — we work best with creative freedom and minimal micromanagement.
Custom projects are welcome, but not all designs may be accepted.
Please communicate changes early; last-minute changes can affect workflow and scheduling.
For large projects, follow-up sessions should be booked within a reasonable timeframe.
Ensure you are comfortable with our style and have clearly communicated your design requirements before making a deposit.
TATTOO APPOINTMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
Touch ups
Touch-ups are available after 4 weeks from your original tattoo.
A $50 setup fee applies for most touch-ups to cover equipment and artist time.
Touch-ups are intended to correct healing inconsistencies or issues from the tattooing process, not for normal fading or preference changes.
Multiple touch-ups beyond what’s necessary are generally not needed — we encourage you to enjoy the natural aging process of tattoos.
Please note: hands, feet, elbows, knees, neck, and wrists are high-movement areas that fade faster and are not included in standard touch-ups.
We will request photos of your healed tattoo before scheduling your touch-up appointment to assess the area and ensure proper care.
