Deposits

A deposit is required to secure all appointments.

Your deposit:

• Reserves your appointment time

• Is applied toward the final cost of your tattoo

Deposits are standard practice throughout the tattoo industry and help protect the time reserved for your project.

Appointments may be rescheduled once with sufficient notice. Deposits are applied to the final tattoo cost.
