HOW DOES BOOKING WORK WITH YOU?
My *new* booking system (a work-in-progress) is a two-parter process. The idea is to eliminate the pressures of submitting and going through the form properly.
Part I: is inputting your personal and contact information. I've programmed Part I to only receive the maximum submission based on the slots I have available. Filling Part I is a good way to get in the queue to continue completing your submission without the pressure of going through everything at once.
Once I've received that max. I will notify who went through and who couldn't. If you couldn't, you're put on a waitlist for the next round. If you went through, you'll receive a follow-up email with a second link to Part II to complete your booking. I will only release Part II to everyone in smaller batches as to not overwhelm everyone involved.
Part II: selecting a design and slot, and paying your deposit.
Once we've got everyone who went through to Part II accounted for, we will send a final email confirming everything went through fine.
HOW DOES YOUR WAITLIST WORK?
Waitlist is only for those who couldn't make it in a round. Waitlist is maximum 10 people to be fair for those who aren't on it.
People on this list will be notified prior to my books going public, I usually send the Part I link between 1st-10th of the month.
HOW DO I RESERVE A FLASH DESIGN?
You would have to wait until my request form goes live on my Instagram link. I will upload new designs on my Instagram posts and my website. However, reserving it would have to be done on the form with a deposit.
WHAT IF THE FLASH I WANT IS SOLD OUT?
Then I'm afraid it isn't available anymore. I only do flash designs once.
AFTER RESERVING A DESIGN, HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO CHANGE IT?
I only allow 2 weeks to change your mind. Changing it becomes extremely hectic for my assistant and I to manage, as it would require figuring out which design you want to swap your initial one with. Therefore, we would cancel your initial submission, re-release the one you don't want anymore, and have you resubmit another request with the design you actually want.
HOW OFTEN DO YOU RELEASE NEW DESIGNS?
It takes me a while to produce a good body of work but I aim to consistently release new ones in between books opening.
WHAT IF I SEE THE DESIGN I WANT BUT YOUR BOOKS ARE CLOSED?
Then you would still have to wait, and hope you are able to reserve the design you want when my books open.
FOR FLASH, CAN I REQUEST A CHANGE IN COLOUR SCHEME?
I will only allow minor changes. Changing the entire colour scheme is not permitted. Flash designs are as is, unless 1 or 2 colours doesn't agree with you, then we can discuss this further on the day of your appointment in person.
CAN I CHANGE MY PLACEMENT EVEN AFTER SUBMITTING A REQUEST?
Yes you can! I ask for placement ahead of time to prepare my station but if you decide later on you want it someone else, we can definitely do that.
CAN I SUBMIT A REQUEST OUTSIDE OF YOUR OPEN TIMEFRAME?
Unfortunately, no.
CAN I MAKE CHANGES TO A FLASH DESIGN?
No. Flash designs are as is. Please understand that all designs I publish are created with a concept in mind.
CAN I RESERVE MORE THAN ONE DESIGN?
No you can't. I encourage people to refrain from submitting more than once as this gives other people the chance to claim a design they want as well. However, if you still see the design(s) you wanted in the next round of bookings, then you are encourage to submit.
I LIVE OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY/STATE, CAN I PURCHASE A DESIGN FOR ANOTHER TATTOO ARTIST TO DO?
At this moment, it's a hard no. I always plan guest spots in different parts of the country as well as going abroad. I prefer to do my tattoos for you so I can meet and experience the moment together.
CAN I FLIP A DESIGN TO ACCOMMODATE THE PLACEMENT?
Yes you can!
