DETAILS ABOUT BECOMING A CLIENT:
HOW TO BOOK APPOINTMENTS:
• I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday. (I’m off weekends!) Full days always start at 12pm. Half days can start at either 12pm or 5pm.
• To book your appointment I require a NON-REFUNDABLE $200 deposit. If you need to reschedule your appointment I require a minimum of 72 hours (three days) notice or you may lose your deposit. If you CANCEL your appointment, the deposit is forfeited. Your deposit will go always go toward the ending total cost of your tattoo!• Half days are $200 per hour. These are for tattoos that would take me 2-4 hours to complete. Full days are $1200.
• It is rare that I will give an exact quote on a tattoo. Please keep in mind there are many factors that can alter the time spent on each piece. Size, placement, detail, etc. If you would like a rough estimate or if you have a budget for your tattoo, please let me know and I can be upfront about what I can or cannot do within that budget!
• My rates/minimums are subject to change, however the rate you are quoted at the time of your booking will stand for the appointment(s) booked. *Please note, this does not guarantee that future appointments will be at the same rate.
ARTWORK:
• I typically draw the design the night before your appointment. There are exceptions to this, of course, if more drawing is necessary. I don’t send out any drawings that I have prepared prior to your appointment. If there are any changes you want to make to the design, please let me know and I can make those for you during your appointment!
(don’t be afraid to speak up if there are any changes you want made to the design! This is going on your body, not mine. At the end of the day I want you to get the tattoo you really want and will love)
EXTRA INFO:
• My only Instagram page is @caitybugink and my only email is caitybugink@gmail.com. I only do bookings though filling out a form and communicating through email. If you ever receive a message from an account or email that aren’t either of those, it is not me! Beware of scammers that may reach out with very similar user names.
• All booking and pricing questions are answered through email only. PLEASE no DMs on Instagram or text message.
• Touch ups are free within the first year of getting done. (exceptions can be made depending on guest spots and traveling clients, etc).
• Each artist at the shop has a private room and I have pasties to help clients feel more comfortable. We also have snacks, water, pads, tampons and hair ties, etc!
• You can bring a guest!. Our private rooms are pretty limited for space but we have a very cozy lobby to hang out in too!
• Cash is preferred, but digital payment is okay too. Deposits may be made through Venmo or Zelle.
