  • Our studio enjoys hosting occastional craft classes, attending conventions, and engaging with events in the community. If employed at Ink Therapy, are you open to attending these things as well?*
  • Ink Therapy Abilene requires all employees to hold current and up-to-date BBP, First-Aid, and CPR certifications. Are you willing and able to maintain these certifications if offered employment?*

We support members of the LGBTQ+ community and are strongly against all forms of hate speech, racism, or gang related activities. If employed, will you also agree to protect and uphold these values?*
  • Tattoo apprenticeships can be extremely taxing, and require a certain level of dedication to complete. Understand that an apprenticeship with Ink Therapy Abilene is an unpaid apprenticeship, and you will not receive monetary compensation from the studio until you are taking paid clients. This timeframe is different for every apprentice, but do not expect to be tattooing or taking clients until, at minimum, one (1) year of apprenticing has been completed, and your mentor has approved you to begin tattooing. You should have other means of supporting yourself in the meantime, and should budget appropriately for this type of commitment. Please indicate you understand and agree to this statement:*
  • Have you ever tattooed yourself, or anyone else, including on "fake skin" or other practice materials?*
