SCHEDULING

I utilize a booking system to keep all of my submissions organized. I try to open my books around 3-4 times a year. When my books are open, there will be a booking form available under the “booking” part of my website, or an email will be sent to you if you sign up for booking notifications. I will carefully go through each submission and determine the design requests that are most aligned with my artistic style at the moment. Unfortunately, since I receive a large number of requests, I am not able to accept every request, so please don’t take it personally if your request is denied. You can always try again the next time my books open! If your proposal is approved, I will email you all the info you need for the appointment and a link to my calendar to pick a time that works for us both.

DESIGN PROCESS

During the week of your appointment, I will draw up a design based on all the information given in your booking form. I always draw tattoo designs custom, I never copy someone else’s work unless you have explicit permission or if it’s in the public domain (ex: Micah Ulrich is an artist who provides a tattoo ticket on his website to purchase, or a Gustav Klimt painting).

I do not send designs beforehand but I always allow for time during the appointment for any design/sizing/placement changes you’d like to make.

PRICING

I require a $100 non-refundable deposit to make an appointment. This goes towards my drawing time in case of cancellation, and holds a spot for you in my schedule. On the day of your appointment, this amount will be taken out of the total price of your tattoo.

I charge an hourly rate of $180/hour while tattooing. You will not be charged for any design time, stenciling, or set up time. My studio minimum is $120 for a tattoo that takes under an hour. Once I have approved your tattoo request, I will send you a price estimate for your tattoo. This is only an estimate and subject to change.

PAYMENT

I prefer cash, but also can accept credit cards. In a pinch I will accept Venmo or Paypal but these are not my preferred forms of payment.

CONTACT

Please email tinybonetattoo@gmail.com for any questions or concerns. I do not respond to DMs or Facebook messages as it gets too complicated using multiple forms of communication.

TOUCH-UPS

It is in both of our best interests to keep your tattoo looking as fresh and pristine as possible for all time! So I am always available for touching up pieces I have tattooed. Please send an email and I can usually get people in within a few weeks to a month. They usually only take about 10-15 min and are free of charge.

BRINGING FRIENDS / FAMILY

Please feel free to bring friends or family to your appointment! I have enough seating for 4-5 people.

PET POLICY

Unfortunately due to legality / sanitary reasons, I’ll have to ask you to leave your bestie at home during your appointment.

AGE REQUIREMENT

I tattoo anyone age 15 and up, although if you’re under 18 I require a parent to join you and fill out consent paperwork. This has to be done in person and cannot be emailed, etc.

PIERCINGS

Tiny Bone Tattoo does not do piercings or sell any piercing jewelry.
