Design Policy

Consultation

• We ask that before booking with a specific artist, you carefully look over our artists portfolios. Our qualified tattoo artists are artists first and foremost, they each have a specific style to their work. Please make sure that the artist you are choosing has a style that you enjoy/matches what you are wanting out of your tattoo.

• During your consultation, and when sending reference photos, please be as specific as possible. We will do our best to incorporate everything you want out of you tattoo. Please keep in mind however, certain things or too much crammed into one piece will result in a lesser tattoo. Part of our job is to guide you in the right direction and bring your vision to life in the best way possible. Please lend us some trust during your consultation.

• We ask that all clients give our artists some creative freedom with your design to ensure that you receive the best quality work possible.

• Our artists have the right to refuse any design without reasoning.

Deposit and Design Changes

• Our artists require a deposit before mocking up or drawing any design.

• The design agreed upon by you and your artist is the design that your deposit and appointment slot are reserved for.

• Changes to the original design are allowed within reason but may increase the price of the tattoo upon completion. If the original concept is changed or changes requested drastically change the original design, a new deposit will be required.

The Design Process

• No finalized designs will be sent to client for preview before their appointment. Designs may be sent to client no earlier than 2 days before scheduled appointment.

• We give clients the opportunity to see the design ahead of time to let us know if we need to make any tweaks and adjustments to designs before putting them too skin. However if there are many changes to be made it may be necessary to reschedule to give our artists time to finalize the revised design. In this case the deposit would cary over to the new appointment.

Touch ups

• Touch ups, of tattoos done originally at Tattooed Mannequin, that are done at the same time as a new tattoo are free. However, exclusively touch up appointments are a $40 equipment fee.

• Touchups for a tattoo NOT originally done at Tattooed Mannequin are the $80 shop minimum if actual tattooing is completed in less than 30 min.

• If a tattoo fails to heal properly due to client neglect and failure to follow after care, any touch ups will be done according standard tattoo prices.
