Pricing and Deposits.
We can provide the most accurate information if questions regarding pricing/ estimates are asked directly of your specific artist.
Any quote or estimate is subject to change.
-Deposits-
Deposits are taken for all appointments and are due at the time of the consultation.
Deposits start at $100 but could be more based on the size of the design or the artists personal deposit policy.
Your deposit goes toward the price of your tattoo and is deducted from the last session or upon completion of the tattoo.
Your deposit may become forfeit in certain situations such as:
-Failure to show up for your appointment without 48 hours of prior notice.
-More than six months passing without correspondence or an appointment.
-Rescheduling more than twice.
DEPOSITS ARE FINAL AND NON REFUNDABLE
The deposit is a guarantee that you are committed to the tattoo process. It is also in place to encourage active communication, If you need to cancel or reschedule please contact us within 48 hours of your appointment. Our artists work very hard on crafting custom designs tailored for individual collectors. In the event that a design cannot be agreed upon the deposit will act as a drawing fee.
Acceptable Identification
Oregon Law requires that a person receiving a tattoo be 18 years old or older and in possession of a government issued photo ID. Examples include, but are not limited to: a state issued driver's license, state issued ID card, passport or military ID (birth certificates, school ID, parental permission etc. are not recognized as valid ID for proof of age in this situation). If you have questions regarding this please contact prior to your appointment- failure to produce appropriate ID at time of services could result in forfeiture of your deposit.
Aftercare Instructions.
1. Remove the bandage the following morning. Leaving the tattoo bandaged for the first night will
lesson the chances of scabbing. After the first night, the tattoo does not need to be covered again.
2. Using your hand, wash the tattoo with warm water and liquid soap. Rinse the area, and pat it dry
with a paper towel. Apply a thin coat of ointment to the tattoo - we recommend Aquaphor, A&D Ointment,
Bacitracin, or Bag Balm. This step should be repeated 2-3 times a day for 3 or 4 days, or until the
tattoo flakes and peels, revealing the new layer of healed skin. DO NOT scratch or pick at your
tattoo.
3. At this point you should keep washing the tattoo, but discontinue the use of ointment. If the tattoo
is dry or itchy, you can apply a small amount of hand lotion such as Aveeno, Lubriderm or Curel
4. Things to avoid during the first 2 - 3 weeks:
- Direct sunlight and tanning beds
- Soaking and swimming
(this includes baths, hot tubs, pools, and all natural bodies of water - showers are fine.)
- Neosporin, Lotions or cleansers with Aloe Vera, or Sea Salt
It can take anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks for a tattoo to completely heal. However, feel free to call us
with any questions or concerns during your healing process. 503.287.0339
*** Individual artists may recommend variations on healing procedures, always listen to your artist.***
