Policies, Terms & Agreements: Ink by Tisha Terms and Agreements, I understand that a $100 Non-Refundable Deposit is Required to hold and book an appointment and is due at the time of booking. I Understand All Deposits & Payments are NON-REFUNDABLE & NON-TRANSFERRABLE. If you miss an appointment, no show, cancel unfortunately your deposit cannot be used for another appointment. If deposit is not received your appointment date will be cancelled or forfeited and you will have to rebook. I acknowledge that I have read all of the terms and agreements for Ink by Tisha. I agree to contact my artist if need to make different arrangements.
Minimum Charge Policy: Our shop minimum $200/hour this applies per person getting tattooed, per session. The minimum covers the time and expense of a sanitary set up and clean up of the equipment and procedure area as well as single use supplies necessary to provide a clean and safe tattoo applied by an experienced professional. Our minimum is the absolute lowest amount we will charge for any tattoo. Please note that any tattoo that takes more than 1 Hour (60 min) will automatically cost more than the $200 minimum.
Deposit Policy: ALL DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE & NON-TRANSFERRABLE! Your deposit guarantees your appointment and assures your commitment. Remaining payment is due at the start of each session before we begin tattooing. Any payment/pricing questions should be discuss before appointment and finalized at the start of each session. Deposits will be applied towards the final cost of your tattoo appointment unless your deposit is forfeited. Deposits are forfeited if you no-show for an appointment, cancel with less than 24 hours in advance notice, reschedule more than once, arrive for an appointment more than 15 minutes late without notice, arrive for an appointment without proper ID or arrive intoxicated or otherwise unable to be tattooed, request excessive or last minute changes to the design or concept, do not complete your tattoo, or decide not to get tattooed at all. If you forfeit a deposit, you will be required to leave a new deposit before booking any new appointments. Deposits may NOT be transferred to another person or for use with a different tattoo artist. Each time you book a new tattoo appointment, a New Deposit is Required. No Exceptions! Any unfinished work, even if its the same tattoo and you do not sit through the first session for whatever reason whatsoever ie; the artist had to stop due to the client inability to handle the pain, moving too much (cant sit still), had to leave etc, full payment is due regardless what happens during your tattoo session.
Refund Policy: NO REFUNDS for any reason. In the unlikely event of a mistake it is the duty of the artist to fix it for free. There is always something we can do. Please contact the studio as soon as possible to allow us to find the best & quickest solution.
Cancellation Policy: All appointments require a minimum of 24 hours notice for cancellation. If cancelled within 24 hours notice, your deposit may be applied to a future appointment. If an artist has to reschedule due to an unexpected emergency *family, sick etc you will be contacted and your deposit will be applied to a future appointment. You have at least 30 days from the original appointment date to reschedule your tattoo appointment. Failure to communicate to reschedule your appointment in a timely manner will forfeit your deposit.
Reschedule & Late Policy: All appointments require at least 24 hours notice to reschedule. If at least 24 hours notice is given, your deposit may be applied to your new appointment. If an appointment is rescheduled more than once, your deposit will be forfeited. Please let me know if you are running late for an appointment. If you are 15 minutes late or more for an appointment without advance notice, you may forfeit your deposit, lose your appointment and be required to reschedule and leave a new deposit.
18 years + The legal age to get a tattoo in the state of Illinois is 18 must show ID. Anyone younger than 18 cannot be tattooed even with a parent or legal guardian's signature.
Guest Policy: No extra guest with you unless getting tattooed and approved by artist out of respect for the other clients getting tattooed who need to relax as well as the artists who need to focus on their work, any excess or disruptive guests will be asked to leave. Children/minors are not permitted in the tattooing area at any time.
Artwork Policy: I will not email, text, or preview a custom design for your review until your scheduled appointment. Any revisions that stay within the idea discussed at the consultation can be made on the day of your appointment. If you change your idea, placement, concept, etc and major or excessive revisions are required, your deposit will be forfeited and your appointment will need to be rescheduled and a new deposit will be required.
Custom Tattoo Policy: Out of respect for the original artist and collector, I will not copy or duplicate any custom tattoo or tattoo design. This applies to tattoos we have created custom for our clients as well as tattoos found online or elsewhere that someone else has created. If you fall in love with a tattoo that an artist has done, please ask the artist to create something similar or inspired by that tattoo for you. Remember we can (and prefer to) customize it specifically to you and for your body. PLEASE NOTE: Flash tattoos are meant to be duplicated and can be tattooed many times, with or without customization.
Touch Up Policy: Courtesy touch ups are at the discretion of the tattoo artist. Necessary touch ups related to the technical application and healing of a tattoo are free if done within 3 months of the tattoo and by the original artist who did the tattoo (unless the tattoo is on a non-guaranteed body part, see below). Touch ups cannot be done until the tattoo is fully healed(1 month). Touch ups due to client failure or negligence to follow our aftercare procedures are not free and will be charged the same rate as a new tattoo. Changes to the original agreed upon tattoo are not considered a touch up and will be charged as a new tattoo. HEALING RESULTS OF TATTOOS ON THE HEAD, FACE, GENITALS, FEET, OR HANDS (INCLUDING FINGERS) CANNOT BE GUARANTEED AND MAY NOT BE ELIGLE FOR FREE TOUCH UPS. If your tattoo is on a non-guaranteed body part it will need multiple touch ups and you will be charged as a new tattoo each time.
