Pricing & Policies

Tattooing is permanent work. My pricing reflects the time, focus, and responsibility required to do it properly.
Please read this page fully before booking—most common questions are answered here.

Small to medium tattoos are priced in person only.

Quotes are not given sight-unseen. Pricing depends on placement, skin condition, and execution requirements.

Pricing shown applies to new projects and future bookings.

Artwork & Design Policy

Design work is part of the tattoo process, but it isn’t an unlimited revision service.

Design Principles

  • Small–medium tattoos include design time

  • Large projects include a defined revision window

  • Major redraws require additional time and are billed accordingly

  • What qualifies as a “major change” depends on scope and time involved

Major Change Fees

Project TypeInitial Design FeeMajor Changes
Small–MediumIncluded$30 each
Sleeves$100$100 each
Full Legs$200$200 each

Designs that significantly differ from consultation notes are considered major changes.
A complete change of concept requires a new retainer.

No-Show & Courtesy Policy

Missed appointments without notice result in fees. These are fees, not retainers or credits.
Unpaid fees after 24 hours may lead to cancellation of remaining appointments.

No-Show Fees

  • Maintenance session: $40

  • Consultation: $40

  • Sessions under 1 hour: $40

  • Sessions over 1 hour: $100

  • Sessions over 2 hours: $280

Courtesy goes both ways. If something changes on my end, you’ll always be notified in advance.

Reviews & Credits

  • If you’ve had a solid experience and want to share, let me know. $50 future credit is available per verified review, per platform.

  • Available after your tattoo and a 5-star written review

  • Applies to both personal and studio pages

  • Maximum $200 total credit

Reviews are tracked. Removing and reposting reviews does not create additional credit.


Referrals

  • Credit applies to referrals that result in a completed tattoo

  • One credit per person

  • Minimum 9% of the tattoo total matched

  • Referral must be mentioned during consultation


Holiday Gift Certificates

(Available late November–December)

  • Buy a $150 gift certificate for $100

  • Limit 2 per recipient

  • Must be purchased for someone else

  • Cannot be combined with other promotions

  • Must be presented in person

  • Valid for one year. Extensions may be honored if needed.

  • Lost certificates cannot be replaced


Non-Peak Pricing

To help fill slower-season availability, larger tattoo projects booked in October through December may qualify for a discounted rate of $135/hr with promo code “NON-PEAK.”

  • Promo code must be mentioned when booking.
  • Applies to larger tattoo projects only.
  • Does not apply to tattoos rescheduled from earlier months.
  • Reschedules from a non-peak priced month do not retain promotional pricing.
  • Cannot be combined with other promotions.

Final Note

My pricing is structured to reward preparation, commitment, and long-term thinking — not speed or volume.

If this approach aligns with how you value permanent work, we’ll be a good fit.
