To get started ...
I do tattoo consultations free of charge, either by
phone, e-mail, or in person prior to each of my tattoo
trips.
Before I will send you any artwork, however, a deposit
of $100 is required**. This guarantees you an
appointment (provided you sign up by the deadline posted
on the website) and is applied to the final cost of your
tattoo. Priority in scheduling is given according to the
date of the receipt of your deposit. The earlier you
sign up, the more choices you will have in appointment
times, and the more time you will have to create a
custom design. Deposits are non-refundable, once you
have received any artwork whatsoever, and they are
applied to the cost of your tattoo.
If you have to cancel and do give adequate
notice ...
If for some reason you cannot keep your appointment, I
will reschedule you for my next trip to your area,
provided you cancel with at least 72 hours advance
notification prior to your scheduled appointment. I'm
usually somewhat flexible on this, but please give me at
least 48 hours notice, so I can reschedule someone else.
If this is the case, you will be notified for 2
subsequent trips following your date of sign-up and
given the opportunity to reschedule, before your name
will be dropped off the list and your deposit forfeited.
If you simply don't show up or cancel with less
than 48 hours notice ...
As started above, you will forfeit your deposit. I'm
happy to reschedule you with full pre-payment. That way
if you don't show up again, it's fine by me! If you are
a REGULAR client... that is, if you've had at least 3
prior appointments with me and you don't show up for one
with no notice, half in advance is sufficient.
If you change numbers, or don't return my calls
...
If you are signed up and you change phone numbers,
e-mail addresses, please notify me. There have been
numerous instances where I cannot reach someone for this
reason. Also, if I leave you a phone message or e-mail
you, please respond, assuming you do want to follow up
with your tattoo. I've had people send a deposit, then
they've never returned a phone call or an e-mail. As a
result, after 3 successful attempts to reach you-- that
is, if I successfully reach your phone machine and leave
you a message, or e-mail you at least 3 times, I will
make no further attempt to contact you. It's up to you
to respond.
If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact me at
tattoo@lava.net
or by calling (808) 734-8677 (this is a Hawai'i number,
so please don't call before 11:00 am, CA time), or
(510) 802-2155 when I am on the mainland. I DO
NOT E-MAIL WHILE TRAVELING, so the phone is actually the
best way to reach me.
