POLICIES + TERMS

By booking an appointment, you have agreed to the policies listed below.

REQUIRMENTS

  • You must be 18 years old with a valid government-issued I.D. at your appointment.

HYGIENE + SANITATION

  • I take hygiene + sanitation to heart. A clean space creates peace of mind. Proper licensing with the Alabama Health Department + cleaning standards are prioritized. The studio is routinely disinfected and all single-use items + needles are properly disposed of. The skin will be properly prepped and proper aftercare will be reviewed at the end of the appointment.

  • Friendly reminder to NOT touch the area of skin we prepped for the tattoo. Please feel free to bring a hoodie or blanket to your appointment if you would like to get comfy :) (We are unable to provide blankets in order to comply with regulations in place by the Alabama Department of Public Health)

BODY TATTOO + DESIGN + DEPOSIT

  • I believe each tattoo should be unique and customized to each individual. Trusting me as your artist and giving me creative freedom is truly appreciated; Please be detailed and send multiple reference photos in your inquiry to ensure a seamless design process. This will help me create a piece that emulates your personality and desired look while incorporating my style.

    Custom designs will NOT be shared before your appointment. Design reviews, edits, and placements can be finalized in person (which I schedule out time for). If during the appointment, we decide to change the design dramatically where extra time + rescheduling is required, there will be a re-drawing time fee added equivalent to the deposit.

  • Tattoo Deposit: My minimum is $150. Tattoo estimates will be provided after inquiry based on the style, placement and size. A $non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment and will go towards your final balance. Appointments can be rescheduled once within 48 hours notice, but failure to show or give notice will result in a forfeited deposit.

    DISCLAIMER: As your artist, I strive to provide quality tattoos that align with your style and body. However, There are risks associated with tattoos that can not be prevented, such as blowouts, fallout, improper care, or dermatological reactions. If my portfolio style does not resonate with your style then I may not be the artist for you since I may not specialize in your preferred style.

COSMETIC TATTOO (PMU) SERVICES

  • Two-Step Process: PMU services require an Initial Session + Complimentary 6-8 week touch-up. This will allow us to start a natural look and gradually add on if needed as well as assess how your skin heals. Touch-up sessions rescheduled beyond 12 weeks from the initial session will not be complimentary unless otherwise stated.

  • Precare & Aftercare: Proper precare and aftercare are essential for optimal results. Healing takes 4-8 weeks (with a possible extension of 1-2 weeks post-touch-up).

  • Previous PMU Work: Contact Sydney with photos for approval before booking. Failure to disclose prior PMU work will result in forfeiting your deposit.

  • Health & Intake Forms: By booking, you confirm that you have honestly completed all health and intake forms and reviewed the PMU Health Checklist. Contact Sydney if any contraindications apply before booking.

COSMETIC BROW TATTOO TRAINING

  • Payment Terms: The online price reflects the deposit amount; the remaining balance is outlined in the description. Deposits are non-refundable and transferable only once with 1-month notice.

  • Certification Requirements: BBP Certification is required before working on models. Post-training, obtain proper state licensing to perform services independently.

  • Final Payment: Remaining balance must be paid in cash or via Zelle on the first day of training. 

SERVICE DEPOSIT & PAYMENT

LATE, RESCHEDULING, & CANCELLATION POLICIES

  • Arriving on Time: Please arrive on time or 10 minutes early. A 10-minute grace period is allowed. After 15 minutes, your appointment is considered a "no show," and your deposit is forfeited.

  • Rescheduling: Notify Sydney as soon as possible if you need to reschedule. Fees may apply if less than 48 hours' notice is given. Promotional rates will not carry over to rescheduled dates.

  • No Shows: Emergencies happen which is understanding. A second no show will result in a charge of 50% of the service cost. A new deposit is required to rebook.

  • Refunds: Refunds are not offered for any beauty or training services.

PREGNANCY POLICY

  • Not a Candidate: It is not recommended to get any tattoo services while pregnant or breastfeeding. It is safer to wait until after pregnancy to get a tattoo. This reduces the risk of complications and ensures the health and safety of both the mother and the baby.

  • Rescheduling: Deposits may be transferred to a new date post-pregnancy. However, prices are subject to change at the time of rescheduling.

LIABILITY WAIVER

  • Liability Waiver: By booking, you agree to release Sydney from any liability for allergic reactions, infections, or dissatisfaction. You are responsible for disclosing any relevant health conditions prior to your appointment.
