What is the policy during December and January?

December and January are peak periods for tattoo artists, with frequent last-minute cancellations that disrupt our schedules. Because of the high demand, rescheduling is allowed, but please note that the original deposit will be forfeited, and a new deposit must be paid for the rescheduled appointment. In these months, deposits are non-refundable upon cancellation, regardless of when the cancellation occurs. We kindly ask that you book an appointment during these months only if you are certain of your availability. This helps us manage our time efficiently and ensures all clients receive the best possible experience.


What should I do if I’m running late for my appointment?

If you’re running late to your appointment, please communicate with us as soon as possible. If you’re more than 15 minutes late, we will still charge for the time missed.


Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?

Minors aged 16 or 17 must be accompanied by a guardian and bring valid identification. Additionally, we enforce a no pets or children policy within the studio premises.
