FAQ’s/Policies

1.) How much is a tattoo?

I strive to give each client individual personal attention so we can create something as unique and amazing as possible.

My tattoo hourly rate is $300/hour

My travel rate may differ.

Please note- though I do not rush, I am naturally a very quick tattooer. I have been working for over 20 years and have done over 11,000 tattoos. I can accomplish a quality tattoo in far less time than most less experienced tattooers. By all means, feel free to ask my other clients about their experiences! I stand by my work.

2.) How much is your deposit amount?

 I take a $300 deposit for each client.

A single-session appointment is generally a single, 3+ hour session. Multi-session appointments can be up to six hours per session. When booking your first appointment, I ask that you book your first three sessions, spaced three to six weeks apart.)

3.) What is your Cancellation Policy?
I require a forty-eight hour notice, minimum. If not, you will lose your deposit. If a genuine emergency keeps you from making an appt, please give me as much notice as possible, and we’ll figure something out.

4.) What is your Rescheduling Policy?
I allot three reschedules; you will forfeit your deposit on the fourth.

5.) What is your Design Change Policy?
Any major design changes you wish to make must be relayed to me as soon as possible. Any major changes (placement on the body, subject changes, etc.) given within 48 hours of your appointment will require a new deposit.

6.) Do the same rates I last paid apply to me as a return client?
I maintain the same rate that you booked your appointment at as long you consecutively book follow-ups within three months of each other. Any past, unfinished pieces outside of three months of consecutive booking are also subject to price increases.

7.) Can you show me my design before my appointment?
I can sometimes share some of the early design process per request- very rough sketches, etc; but the final design can not be shown until the day of your appointment: there are no exceptions.

8.) How can I book with you?
My booking occurs four times a year in three month increments: every December, March, June and September. If you haven’t already, you can join my mailing list which will notify you when I’ll be open for booking, traveling to a different shop, or if I have any last minute cancellations or openings. My mailing list receives the first notifications to these announcements!

9.) What information should I include in my email?
If you could please include the following information:
Full name
Phone number
Email address
Design idea, size and placement
– Available/desired date range (Wednesday-Saturday only)
*Feel free to include any reference you find helpful to get your point across, and any other info you’d like to include. Also, if you’re open to anything, or want something from my design book, please indicate that in the design section.

10.) Where is your shop located?
Heart Tattoo is located at 1605 N Franklin St. 33602 in Tampa, Florida.

11.) Where can I park for my appointment?
Steeet parking is free throughout our area, and there are two pay lots directly across from the shop.

12.) How should I prepare for my appointment?
There are several ways you can prepare for your appointment from eating, wearing the proper clothing, or even getting adequate sleep the night before. This article touches a little bit on each great way to prepare for your appointment.

13.) How do I handle aftercare of my tattoo?
On the day of your appointment, when your session is done, I will personally cover how you can take care of your tattoo at home. You are also more than welcome to ask me any questions I don’t immediately answer. Also, you will have access to my personal client line, in case any questions arise during the healing process.
