TATTOO REQUEST form for @inkbypaula

Hi there! Thanks for your interest in getting tattooed by me (@inkbypaula) :) I work out of a small private studio in Burnaby (near New Westminster). I am 5 bus stops from Edmonds skytrain. Please read carefully:

I work with black ink (sometimes will use colour if it's a small accent colour, but not often). All my supplies are vegan! My style is generally illustrative and delicate. Please look at my existing work on Instagram to get an idea of what my tattoos look like. *Please understand that I cannot accept every tattoo request, and that filling out this form does not guarantee an appointment with me.*

If we go ahead and decide to work together, I will require a non-refundable $75 deposit, to be deducted from the total price of your tattoo on the day of. For small-medium pieces, I charge per piece (starting at my minimum of $220). For longer sessions/multiple sessions, I charge by the hour ($175/hr). I can discount my hourly rate for long sessions.

* I tattoo 18yrs and up. Otherwise, I need parental consent.

* I don't tattoo hands/fingers/feet/neck often - Sometimes I will do these parts, but not often.

* I don't retouch existing tattoos done by other artists, or do coverups.

* I work during the day only, Monday to Thursday (Sometimes Fridays).

* I will require proof of vaccination as I am immunocompromised. Only 1 person per appointment unless we've discussed otherwise.

Please make sure you know what you want before requesting an appointment with me! Previously, many people booked appointments then changed their design idea close to their appointment. If you do change your mind after booking an appointment with me, I will require another $75 deposit/drawing fee.

Do you have any blood/skin/health issues I need to know about?*

I generally work on weekdays (and the RARE weekend). What is your availability like in general for this appointment?*

Thank you so much for your submission! I ask that you please understand I am not able to take on every submission and can only book so many people in each month, so only if you are selected, you will hear back from me.

If you don't hear back within 2 months, it means your request did not make it to bookings, or the style you requested is not in my wheelhouse. You can re-submit in 2 months if you'd like to try again!*

I understand
