Booking Process

At ARTISTIC INSTINCT, we believe in making the tattoo booking process as smooth and transparent as possible. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned collector, we want your experience to be as stress-free and exciting as possible. Here's a step-by-step guide to booking your tattoo appointment with us.

​

Step 1: Get Inspired!

Before you book your appointment, take some time to think about the design you want. Explore our portfolio for inspiration, check out our social media pages, and gather any reference images you like. The more detailed your idea, the better we can bring it to life!

​

Step 2: Fill Out the Booking Form

Once you have your design idea ready, head over to our Booking Form page. Here’s what we’ll need from you:

• Name and contact details (phone number and email)

• Preferred tattoo artist (if you have one in mind)

• Design description or reference images

• Placement (where you’d like your tattoo)

• Size (small, medium, large, or specific dimensions)

• Preferred date and time for your appointment

• Any specific questions or requests you have for your artist

This helps us match you with the right artist and allocate enough time for your session.

​​

Step 3: Consultation and Design Discussion

Once we receive your booking form, we’ll get in touch with you within 48 hours to confirm your request. Depending on the complexity of your design, we may schedule a brief consultation to discuss your ideas in more detail.

Consultation options:

• In-person consultation: Meet with your tattoo artist to discuss your design, placement, and any adjustments.

• Virtual consultation: If you're out of town or prefer to chat online, we can set up a virtual meeting.

​​

Step 4: Deposit and Confirmation

To secure your appointment, we require a deposit. This is typically a flat fee or a percentage of your estimated tattoo cost. The deposit goes toward the final price of your tattoo, and is non-refundable in case of cancellation or no-show.

Once your deposit is received, we’ll confirm your appointment, and your artist will start working on a design draft.

​​

Step 5: Design Finalization

We want you to be 100% happy with your design. After your consultation, your artist will create a custom design based on your input. Once it’s ready, you’ll be sent a preview for approval. You can request minor adjustments until the design is perfect.

Note: Major design changes after the final approval may require an additional fee.

​​

Step 6: Your Appointment Day

On the day of your appointment, make sure to:

• Arrive on time: Arriving late can affect your session time and the quality of the work.

• Eat and hydrate: A full stomach and hydration will make the tattooing process smoother.

• Bring a valid ID: We require all clients to be at least 18 years old.

We’ll review your design and any last-minute questions you have before we get started.

​​

Step 7: Aftercare & Healing

Once your tattoo is finished, we’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. Remember, how you care for your tattoo in the days and weeks following your session plays a big role in how it heals and looks long-term.
