A non-refundable deposit of $50 is required to secure any Flash Fundraiser appointment. A non-refundable deposit of $80 is required for all other tattoo services (excluding free touch-ups). Your deposit will be applied towards the specific tattoo concept for which you have booked. If you wish to change your concept: You must provide at least 48 hours' notice before your appointment. Failure to provide notice may result in the refusal of your service. Design changes can be accommodated to an extent (excluding flash pieces). However, if your idea changes significantly, I reserve the right to reschedule your appointment, and a new deposit may be required for the updated design. No drawings will be provided before your appointment. Sufficient time will be allocated between clients to review and modify your design, if necessary, before the tattoo begins.

Day before: • Do not consume drugs or alcohol at least 24 hours before your appointment •  Drink lots of water •  Moisturizing the area that will be tattooed is always a good idea   Day of •  Make sure you are wearing appropriate clothing to your appointment. Loose-fitting clothing is best as well as clothing that will allow easy access to the area that will be tattooed (shorts if you’re getting a leg tattoo, a t-shirt or tank top if you’re getting an arm tattoo) •  Eat a good breakfast/lunch •  Bring snacks and drinks •  Feel free to bring headphones, a book, your tablet/iPad, whatever you need to make yourself comfortable •  Get a good night’s sleep!

Please arrive on time for your appointment. If you anticipate being late, kindly inform me in advance. Come prepared—please refer to the F.A.Q. section on my website for specific instructions. You may bring one friend or family member to your appointment. It is strongly recommended to refrain from consuming alcohol or drugs for at least 24 hours before your appointment. Children under the age of 16 are not permitted in the shop during tattoo sessions for safety reasons.

I live in a rural area and always make every effort to arrive at work, understanding that many clients travel to see me. However, should I deem the weather unsafe, I reserve the right to reschedule your appointment. My clients' and my own safety are my top priority. If you feel unsafe driving in inclement weather, you may also reschedule your appointment. Please notify me in advance.

Appointments can be rescheduled up to 48 hours in advance. After this window, your deposit will be forfeited, although some exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis.

If you are feeling ill, please reschedule your appointment with at least 24 hours' notice. Your deposit will be applied to your new appointment. A transfer is allowed once; after that, a new deposit will be required. Some exceptions will apply depending on the circumstances, so please communicate openly with me—I am very understanding. If you fail to show up for your appointment without prior notice, your deposit will be forfeited, and you will no longer be able to book with Peace Machine Tattoo.
