**Current Studio Policies**
(These policies are subject to change. All policies must be ok with clients before scheduling any appointments. Any additional deposit policies will be given upon scheduling.)
* If you or anyone in your household have tested positive for Covid-19 within the last 14 days we will need to reschedule.
- This is 14 days until after everyone in your household is testing negative, not 14 days from the first day of testing positive.
* If you or anyone in your household has had a recent Covid-19 exposure outside of your household:
- As long as you and everyone in your household is 100% symptom free and have tested negative you can come in, however I kindly ask you wear a mask to your appointment (if it has been less than 2 weeks since potential exposure, still symptom free and testing negative).
- If you or anyone in your household develop any symptoms at all or test positive within 2 weeks of your appointment, we will need to reschedule.
* If you have been sick with anything else (not from Covid), or had any of the symptoms listed below in the last 7 days (even if you think it's allergies) we will need to reschedule:
- This is to prevent any other bugs coming into the studio, as well as to let your immune system settle for proper tattoo healing.
-If it is someone else in your household with symptoms, and they have tested negative for Covid, as long as you have absolutely no symptoms you can come in. (If anyone tests positive for Covid please see policies above).
-These symptoms include but are not limited to:
Cough, sore throat, runny nose, fever, nausea, shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle aches, new loss of taste or smell, etc.
- Coming into the studio sick will result in you being asked to leave and forfeiting your deposit.
* Masks are optional for clients.
- I will still be wearing a mask while tattooing, if you prefer I wear a mask for your entire appointment or consultation, it's not a problem at all, please let me know.
- I will still have free masks available for anyone who wants one
- Please do not chew gum at your appointment.
* You cannot get tattooed within 30 days of receiving a Smallpox or Monkeypox vaccine.
* It is highly recommended to not get tattooed at least 2 weeks after any other vaccine to allow your immune system to settle down for proper tattoo healing. Please plan accordingly.
* If you have a health condition that affects your immune system and/or healing you might not be able to get tattooed:
- Health conditions include but are not limited to: Immune disorders, Nerve disorders, HIV, Hepatitis, Epilepsy, Heart conditions, Hemophilia, Infections, Diabetes, Cancer, or any other condition that affects your health not listed. If so, please check with me before scheduling any appointments.
* Certain medications may not allow you to get tattooed:
-If you are taking certain medications that are anti-coagulants and blood thinners, steroids, antibiotics, narcotics, muscle relaxers, or any other types that hinder your immune system or make you drowsy, you cannot get tattooed while on these medications and will need to cancel or reschedule for a later date.
* If you are pregnant or nursing you cannot get tattooed.
* If you are having surgery within 2 weeks before or after getting tattooed you will have to reschedule.
* Tattoos take at least 2 weeks to fully heal, during the healing time you cannot do any water activities other than normal washing in a sink or shower. Please plan your appointment(s) accordingly.
* If you have any skin problems you will have to reschedule or cancel:
- This includes but not limited to: Psoriasis, Eczema, Infections, Sunburn, Insect bites, acne, shingles, rash, or any other skin irritations or break outs. Raised moles cannot be tattooed directly overtop. If you are prone to Keloid scarring please let me know in advance.
* Do not drink alcohol or take any recreational drugs (including marijuana) or any medication that can alter your mind or body at least 12 hours before your tattoo appointment.
-This includes any pain killers, muscle relaxers, etc.
-Coming in under the influence of anything will result in not getting tattooed and forfeiting your deposit.
* Guests are not allowed at appointments:
-You cannot bring anyone with you to your appointment unless you both are scheduled for tattoos or consultations back-to-back on the same day and time.

* 24 hours notice is required for rescheduling all tattoo appointments, otherwise you will lose your deposit:
- With the exception of ACTUAL emergencies or if last minute sickness pops up (telling me the day before your appointment that you have been sick for a few days already is not considered last minute, if it is within a week or two before your appointment, let me know as soon as you are feeling sick!). Please give me as much notice as possible even in these situations so I am able to adjust my schedule. Please do not take advantage of this policy.
* If you are more than 10 minutes late for your appointment you will more than likely need to reschedule and may lose your deposit.
