This is uncomfortabe, but necessary when all you have is your time. I never want to keep a deposit and regret the need to take one. But as a small business, we simply cannot absorb all the missed appointments. Some weeks these are as many as actual clients we see. Imagine, showing up for your job 8 hours a day, but then your pay check says you only worked 1/3 of those hours. That is what multiple misses are like for us. We just have to have some type of income in these vacancies or we will go out of business. It is common in our industry. Just please try and make your appointment- after all it is the time you picked. - thank you
Nikki’s Tattoo Studio - Appointment policy
1905 #110 Rice Road Extension Matthews NC 28105
In consideration of our time, we do take a deposit for all appointments in the minimum sum of $100. If your appointment is expected to take several hours you will likely be asked to double that amount. This is a separate deposit from your drawing deposit, if you had one, although they both are applied toward your final charge.
Deposits will be forfeited for the following & upon re-booking a new deposit needs to be paid:
We require 2 of our business days’ notice for any cancellation or reschedule. Please email us at 1995nts@email.com (preferred) or leave a message at 704- 845-1533
Please do not be more than 15 min late. We likely have others scheduled too & need the time planned to work.
Please arrange for childcare ahead of time. No one under 18 is permitted in the studio. Bringing an un-supervised minor with you, means we cannot see you.
Have your valid Photo Id each time we see you, without it we cannot work on you.
Please be in proper physical & mental condition. If you are overly medicated or consuming alcohol, sun burned, severely dehydrated, or have been advised by your physician not to have this work done, the deposit will be forfeited.
We want to see you!! And we never want anyone to lose a deposit. Please be aware of our policy and respectfully adhere.
Even the shortest appointment impacts the rest of our day/our income. We appreciate your understanding.
