introduction:
hi ! nice to meet you! my name is zee (he/they). i am a transmasc nonbinary animator, illustrator, and stick & poke tattoo artist currently located in santa clarita valley, CA. i will be moving out of scv in mid May of 2023. thank you for your interest in me and my work!
important dates:
BOOKS ARE OPEN FOR MAY 2023 !
location:
i currently tattoo out of my dorm that's on a college campus! (if this is uncomfortable for you, that is totally understandable, but then i am not for you!) i am blood-borne pathogen training certified and have a sanitary set up for folks who come by.
accessibility:
my dorm is located inside on the first floor of a building, wheelchair accessible ramp is available
booking process:
- you fill out this form, i will review it, and i will respond to you via the email you provided within 3 business days, if your ideas/availability work for me!
- in the response, i will let you know the price, appointment slot given to you, address of school
- in order to reserve the appointment slot, a deposit is required which is 35% of the total cost of the tattoo via paypal or venmo
- this deposit is refundable, unless you cancel less than 2 hours in advance/ghost me during time of the appointment/or violate any of my terms
*IMPORTANT: please use random emojis in the payment description so paypal/venmo doesnt flag me!*
- if you do not respond and submit the deposit within 1 week of my response email, you forfeit the appointment slot and it will be given away to someone else
terms of service:
general information:
- i reserve the right to decline any booking for any reason, at any time
- payment will be done with paypal/venmo/cash only
- all clients must be 18 years of age or older
- i currently only tattoo with black, red, and blue ink (all 100% vegan)
covid precautions:
- if you are getting/have gotten the covid-19 vaccine/booster: please wait at least 1.5 weeks after your final shot before getting a tattoo with me. there is a possibility of poor tattoo healing or pseudo-allergic reactions after the vaccine due to increased immune system reactivity.
- due to omicron, you must wear a N95/KN95 mask for your appointment for maximum protection. please bring one, though i will have some available if you cannot bring one for the appointment.
- you must be fully vaccinated by the time of the appointment and must be comfortable wearing a mask for the entirety of the appointment
- if you have been exposed to covid within the past week before the appointment, are feeling unwell, experiencing symptoms of covid-19 during the day of our appointment, you must let me know, so we cancel and reschedule when you have self quarantined/have a negative covid test
- no guests (friends, family, partners, pets) during the appointment may be accepted at this time
general health:
- for health concerns, i cannot tattoo anyone pregnant or breastfeeding
- red ink can be known to have a higher risk of causing allerigc reactions, which can cause longer healing times, and itchier skin.
the red ink i use is "Mom's Millenium Ink" which is 100% vegan and gets its pigment from logwood. it does not contain any pigment from heavy metals or carmine. ingredients like heavy metals/carmine are what are believed to cause the allergic reactions.
i do not mean to discourage or scare anyone away from red ink tattoos, but it is important that you know the risks associated with red inks ahead of time!
after the tattoo:
- after the tattoo procedure is done, total payment (minus cost of deposit) is made with paypal/venmo/cash, queer people of color may request sliding scale payment
- to confirm you have read my terms of service, at the end of the jotform i will ask you what the special word is, it is: bunkbed
tips?
- tips are not necessary, but appreciated!
- money is customary, but i love art books/graphic novels/art prints too!
