This is where you might find the answer to some of the most common questions asked to me daily?
How much do you charge?
My minimum is $200. Regardless of size. My hourly rate $150. Total cost will be determined by the length of the session, size of the piece, placement and amount of detail involved. Pricing is always best discussed in person for large scale designs. Serious collectors and new customers alike should understand the investment involved when collecting body art.
Do I have to book an appointment or can I just walk in to get a Walk-in?
I work by appointment only. No walk-in appointments are accepted. Make sure to following me on Instagram as occasionally I may post a “Last Minute Opening” available for certain days.
How do I book an appointment and do you require a deposit?
Email- DeadSexyTattoo@gmail.com
To book an appointment- email and submit your tattoo ideas. Please include the following- Tattoo Description/ Size/ Body Location/ Budget/ and any references that may be helpful.
I usually pick tattoo ideas that I feel within my ability/interest. I require full artistic freedom when designing custom work.
A NON-REFUNDABLE Standard Deposits are $100. Large scale designs-$200+ (sleeves/ back piece).
The deposit covers 1 design and the price comes off the final price. If your design requires multiple sessions then the deposit is held to secure the next session and comes off the final session. This is to ensure you are as dedicated to completing your tattoo as I am.
_________________________________________________
Your deposit will be forfeited if:
•You do not show up to your appointment.
•You cancel your appointment or reschedule without giving at least 5 days notice.
•You arrive more than 20 minutes late to you appointment.
• You reschedule a second time, regardless of notice. You may reschedule a second time but will need to submit a new deposit.
• You arrive to your appointment without government-issued identification.
•You change your design from what was previously discussed. The artist has the right to refuse the new design. Pre-drawn designs may not be changed.
*Upon paying a deposit: I agree to all policies and acknowledge that I have communicated my tattoo design idea to the artist to my satisfaction, and have reviewed the artist’s prior works to decide that the artist can implement my idea to my satisfaction. I understand that creating a tattoo design based on a client’s concept is subjective, and that variations may exist between my concept and the finished design. If the finished design is not to my liking, minor changes can be made at the artist’s discretion. However, I understand that substantial changes to the design or the request of an entirely new drawing or draft will require a new deposit/appointment and the original deposit will be forfeited as payment for the artist’s drawing time.

Can I see the design before my appointment?
I understand that you want to be involved in every step of the process in designing your tattoo, and that you may want to see a full drawing or sketch before your appointment for approval. However, designs will not be ready to view/make changes to until the day of your appointment. I do not email drawings/artwork prior to your appointment, nor will I do multiple drawings. All artwork is ready in line work form. Full color artwork is not an option due to my schedule. I understand this requires a lot of trust and patience. There will be plenty of time to look over the drawing and make any changes necessary during this time.
Please review my portfolio prior to submitting a tattoo request, trust in your artist is very important.
Can I Bring someone with me?
Please show up to your appointment ALONE.
If you require a care giver -they are more then welcome to assist you.
Otherwise-
NO friends or family will be permitted in the studio/ tattoo station.
All Appointments are SOLO.
Sorry NO groups/ couples/ tag alongs.
I prefer to work with no audience.
