Booking
Please be as descriptive as possible when booking with me so that I can give you the most accurate quote + timeline.
Once you have booked your date + time via the Acuity link provided, you have 48 hours to send your deposit via e-transfer otherwise your date/time/design will be released.
I reserve the right to accept or reject any booking requests, based on my availability and my practice at the time.
By booking with me you agree that you have read my policies completely!
Pricing + Payment
Pricing varies from project to project, and I am always willing to work within your budget to make you something beautiful. For hourly rate pieces, I will give you a price range so there are no surprises.
Flash pieces typically are offered at a flat rate.
I charge an hourly rate of $180/hour for small-medium projects.
I have a day rate of $950, which covers 5+ hours of tattooing.
I accept cash or e-transfer.
Tipping is appreciated, but not mandatory, especially in cash form. There are details about this in my reminder email.
Deposits + Drawing Fees
Half-day session: $100
Full-day session: $200
Flash: 50% of the posted rate.
Your deposit covers the initial drawing fee. If you request extensive changes to the original drawing, I reserve the right to keep 50% of your deposit as an additional drawing fee, and we may need to reschedule your appointment.
I will typically email your design the evening before your appointment. If you’d like to receive the drawing in advance, I can prioritize it a week in advance for a fee.
I will not provide drawings without a booked appointment/paid deposit.
Lateness, Cancellations + No Shows
I greatly appreciate you being on time for your appointment. Please try not to arrive more than 5 minutes prior to your appointment.
If you are running late and have not attempted to contact me via e-mail, you forfeit your deposit after 15 minutes.
Deposits are non-refundable for cancellations. I allow 1 reschedule per booking before requiring a new deposit so please check your schedule before committing to a date and time.
Cancellations should be made at least 72 hours in advance to allow me to book in somebody else. Please let me know as soon as possible for scheduling conflicts.
Cancellations under 72hrs notice will forfeit your deposit, and another deposit will be required if you still wish to book a session at a later date.
If you no-show an appointment, regardless of circumstance, you forfeit your deposit and understand that you will have to pre-pay for future appointments or that I may not take you on as a client again.
Tattoo Designs
Custom tattoo designs will be available to you at the time of your appointment; I will not show you prior to your appointment. Please be punctual so that we have time to review and make any adjustments if necessary.
For major changes to your design a $50-100 drawing fee will be incurred per revision and may cut into our appointment time or require us to reschedule.
By commissioning me for custom work you agree that my style is agreeable to you and you trust my ability to fulfill your vision.

Please do not bring guests, pets, children, or minors. Any plans you need to make to mind children or pets should be made in advance - cancellations due to lack of baby/pet sitter is at your own expense and subject to my cancellation policy.
Tattoo times can be variable and I am only able to give you an estimated timeline. Please do not commit to plans with others in a way that would make you feel rushed during our appointment.
If you would like to schedule an appointment where you and friend can get tattooed together, please e-mail me.
