Frequently asked questions

 
 

 

How do I schedule an appointment?

An appointment must be made in person or via email.(Sorry but I will not take bookings over the phone or via text message) When you are making your appointment you will be required to leave a minimum deposit of €50, payable in cash or by bank transfer. The total amount of your deposit will be taken off the total price of the tattoo or at the last scheduled appointment once the tattoo is completed.   If you do not show for your scheduled appointment, the deposit is forfeited and a new deposit will be required to schedule a new appointment. See the "CONTACT ROSS" section for more info on booking or to arrange a free consultation.

 

how do tattoo quotes work

Tattoo price quotes are only estimates.  I do my best to complete the tattoo within the time frame I have estimated, however a tattoo can take longer than anticipated for various reasons. Size, placement, skin type and colour or black and grey are all factors that come into play when completing a tattoo.  In some cases, a tattoo can be finished quicker than originally quoted. 

 

What happens if my tattoo needs to be touched up

Touch ups will be done at my discretion.  Touch up appointments do not require a deposit and are free within six months of when the tattoo is completed, unless the tattoo was damaged by your negligence. If you do not show up for your scheduled touch up appointment, you will be required to leave a deposit to schedule a new appointment.  If you do not show for the second scheduled appointment, the deposit is forfeited and you will be charged at the hourly rate. I will complete a touch up for a tattoo that was not completed by me, however I will charge my normal fee.

 

Can i still get tattooed if I'm late for my appointment

If you arrive more than 20 minutes late, your appointment may need to be rescheduled, depending upon my other scheduled appointments.  If your appointment has to be rescheduled due to your late arrival, your deposit is forfeited and you will be required to leave another deposit in order to reschedule another appointment. Please keep your appointment card as I don't have time to contact my clients to remind about the time & date of booking. 

 

Can I bring my child to watch me get tattooed

Sorry but you can not bring your child in with you while you are being tattooed for health and safety reasons. If you have to bring them with you to wait in the waiting room, they must be supervised by someone 18yrs or older. 

 

Why can’t I get a price over the phone? 

 I cannot give tattoo prices over the phone due to the nature of custom pieces.   Size, placement, skin type and colour or black and grey are all factors that come into play when completing a tattoo. I encourage my clients to speak with me in person in order to go over all the information needed in order to provide a quote.

 

What if I forget to bring my I.D.?

If you arrive for your appointment without proper identification you will not be tattooed and the deposited is forfeited.  You will be required to leave another deposit in order to reschedule a new appointment at the artists availability. Acceptable forms of Identification: Drivers License, national age card or Passport.

 

Can I use a Gift Certificate as my deposit?

Yes, you can use a Gift Certificate for a deposit.  If you do not provide proper notice to reschedule or do not show for the appointment, the Gift Certificate will be voided.

 

What happens if I need to reschedule my appointment?

If you need to reschedule an appointment, I require 48 hours notice.  If proper notification is provided, I will transfer your deposit to your new appointment.  If I do not receive this proper notification, the deposit is forfeited and a new deposit will be required to schedule a new appointment.
