Q: How much will my tattoo cost?
A: Pricing depends on size, placement, and complexity/level of detail. My minimum starts at $150. I can provide an estimate once given a description of your idea.

​

Q: How do I book a tattoo with you?
A: You can submit a booking request through my booking form on my contact page, send me an email, or send me a DM on Instagram (@amelia.tattoo.art). Once I review your idea, I’ll reach out with next steps if it's a good fit! ​

​

Q: Can you sketch me a design first, and then I'll book it if I like it?

A: Generally no. I only start the drawing and designing process after the deposit has been paid and an appointment time has been set. I am happy to discuss and brainstorm ideas with you through email/messaging before you book in, but I wouldn't be sketching or designing anything prior to the deposit being paid.​

​

Q: Do you require a deposit?
A: Yes—a $50 to $100 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment. It goes toward the final cost of your tattoo. 

​

Q: What’s your rescheduling or cancellation policy?

A: I require at least 48 hour notice for rescheduling. Late cancellations or no-shows will forfeit the deposit. The deposit is also only good for one reschedule (with a 48 hours notice); additional reschedules after that will require a new deposit.

​

Q: Can I see the design before my appointment?
A: I usually share the final design on the day of your appointment. Minor tweaks and changes can be made on the spot. For custom work, I design based on the details you submit in your inquiry—so the more info you provide and the more specific you are in your request, the better!

​

Q: Do you take custom tattoo requests?

A: Yes! I love collaborating on custom ideas, especially those rooted in anime, video games, or simple but meaningful symbolism. I’ll let you know if the idea aligns with my style.

​​

Q: What is your guest policy?

A: Due to space limitations, I typically don't allow guests. However, I understand the need to have an emotional-support human sometimes, so if you do have the need to bring one guest, let me know in advance so I can accommodate; additional scheduling and availability constraints may apply in order to accommodate a guest.

​

Q: What forms of payment do you accept?

A: Cash is preferred, but I can also take credit card.

​

Q: Do you tattoo hands, ribs, or fingers?
A: I’m open to these placements depending on the design, but keep in mind these areas fade faster and will likely require touch-ups. These predetermined high-fade areas may incur a small touch-up fee.

​

Q: What should I do to prepare for my appointment?
A: Eat a good meal, stay hydrated, avoid alcohol the day before, and get a good night’s sleep. Wear comfy clothes and make sure the area being tattooed is easily accessible. For longer sittings, bring water and snacks, and headphones or entertainment (optional).​​

​

Q: Do you do touch-ups?
A: Yes—free touch-ups are offered within 6 months of your appointment for natural fading and fallout. Imperfect healing due to poor client aftercare and certain predetermined high-fade areas may be subject to a touch-up fee.
