CUSTOM BOOKING REQUEST FORM

🖤 All custom tattoo requests are welcome! 🖤

Please note: I have a waitlist for custom work. If your idea feels like a good fit for my style and strengths, I’ll be happy to add you to the list. I limit the number of custom pieces I take on each month to avoid burnout and to ensure I can give each design the time and attention it deserves.

I handle all my own bookings and like to take the time to give each request the attention it deserves – please allow up to 7 days for a response. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding! 

✶ ✶ ✶ 

The Custom Process
Once I receive your completed booking form, the next step is to schedule an in-person consultation to talk through your ideas.
During the consult, I’ll take tracings and reference photos of the area you’d like tattooed and make rough sketches to explore flow and composition.

Drawing Fee
A drawing fee is required for all custom tattoos. This fee covers the time I spend researching, planning, and creating your unique design.
It typically ranges from $250 to $500, depending on the complexity and scope of the work.
I’ll confirm the amount after our consultation.

There is no fee for consultations.

Your custom artwork will be shared with you once it’s complete. After you’ve reviewed and approved the design, we’ll go ahead and book your tattoo appointment.

 Booking Your Appointment
A $100 deposit is required to secure your tattoo appointment. This amount will go toward your final tattoo cost.

I’m happy to make one round of adjustments to your design, if needed. Additional revisions are absolutely possible and will be priced fairly based on the extra work required.

✶ ✶ ✶

In addition to custom tattoos, I also have over 150 pre-drawn flash designs available!

You can browse them here: FLASH BOOK

I’m always open to small adjustments or customizations to flash designs—just ask!
For flash tattoos, please use the FLASH BOOKING FORM

There is no waitlist for flash tattoos - I'll likely have availability for this month!

I tattoo at Diana Tattoo in Los Angeles.

GENERAL INFORMATION

🖤 Availability
I tattoo Wednesday through Saturday, from 11am to 7pm.

🖤 Pricing
Custom tattoos are priced at my hourly rate of $150.
This includes everything related to the tattoo session—stenciling, snack or bathroom breaks, and bandaging.

After our consultation, I’ll advise you on the estimated session length.
Sessions typically range from:
– 4 hours ($600)
– to 8 hours ($1,200)

Depending on the size and complexity, your tattoo may be completed in a single session (for small to medium pieces), or over multiple sessions (for larger designs—e.g., linework in one session, shading in another).

🖤 Gratuity
Tipping is not mandatory, but always appreciated.
As a guide, a 20% tip is customary in the tattoo industry, with a typical range of 10–30%. It’s entirely at your discretion!

🖤 Deposit
A non-refundable $100 deposit is required to secure your appointment.
This deposit goes toward the total cost of your tattoo, and the balance is due in cash on the day of your session.

🖤 Drawing Fee
A non-refundable drawing fee is required for all custom tattoos.
This covers the time I spend researching and designing your piece.

– Fees typically range from $250 to $500, depending on the scope of work
– I will confirm the amount after our consultation
– The drawing fee will be requested once I’m ready to begin your project
– I aim to deliver your custom artwork within 4 weeks of receiving the drawing fee

🖤 Custom Designs
I provide completed artwork in advance of your tattoo appointment.
Once you’ve approved the design, we’ll schedule your session.

I’m happy to offer one round of revisions, if requested.
Additional revisions are welcome and will be fairly priced based on the extra work involved.

Note: Redesign fees are separate and do not go toward the final cost of your tattoo.

🖤 Punctuality & Timing
Please arrive on time for your appointment.
If you're running late, contact me at rachelw.tattoo@gmail.com.

If you are more than 15 minutes late without contacting me, your appointment may be considered canceled.
Let me know ahead of time if you’re under any time restrictions.

🖤 Phoebe (Studio Dog!)
My dog, Phoebe, may be present in the studio.
She’s an 11-year-old, 14lb Boston Terrier. If you have pet allergies or concerns, just let me know and we’ll keep her in a separate area.
