APPOINTMENT
INSTRUCTIONS


•Please make sure to take the day off and do not have any plans that coincide closely with the tattoo appointment.  The process takes a while and putting a time constraint on that is never a good idea.
•BRING VALID GOVERNMENT IDENTIFICATION
•Moisturize the tattoo area several times a day in the week leading up to the appointment. It makes the session shorter and makes it hurt less, to put it simply.
•Do not shave the tattoo area prior to the appointment if it’s an area you don’t usually sHave. If there is a lot of hair in the area, please trim the area to make shaving easier.
•Necessary tattoo aftercare products can be found here.

•Please avoid taking blood thinning medication such as ibuprofen, drinking alcohol, and drinking coffee the Day before / Day of your appointment, as it thins your blood, which leads to excess bleeding and several other negative issues with the tattooing process.

Late Arrival

You are expected to be on time to your appointment at the time and date discussed and verified with my assistant. If you are running late to your appointment, please let your artist know as soon as possible.  We understand that things happen, and sometimes you don’t make your ETA, therefore a grace period of 15 minutes will be granted to every appointment.

If later than 15 minutes, deposit will be forfeited, even if tattoo session is still honored. Tattoo session may be cancelled if client is late as it may interfere with scheduling.

Rescheduling

Should you find yourself in a situation in which you cannot make your appointment, please inform your artist as soon as possible so I can plan accordingly.  Don’t worry too much about it, life happens.  We ask, however, that at least a 7 day notice be given to your artist, otherwise your deposit will be forfeited. Only one reschedule is allowed per appointment. If a new rate has taken effect, you will be moved to the new rate along with the reschedule.

Cancellation

If appointment is cancelled, your deposit will be forfeited and your design will be available for someone else to claim.  Should you want to schedule another appointment, another deposit will have to be made.  The same rules apply to no-shows.

Design Change

If you decide you want to change your design, a notice of at least one week is necessary. Please keep in mind that it’s possible your artist won’t be comfortable with the design request and may deny it, at which point we can choose to either cancel the appointment or continue with the old design with minor alterations. Only one design change is permitted per appointment, seeing as a constant changing of designs is not conducive to a smooth booking process. Thank you.

Feel free to message Lobo with any questions you may have.
