I acknowledge by signing this form that I have been given the full opportunity to ask any and all questions that I might have about obtaining a tattoo and that all my questions have been answered to my full satisfaction.
I specifically acknowledge that I have been advised of the facts and matters set forth below and I agree as follows:
1. I am not pregnant or nursing. I am not under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
2. If I have diabetes, epilepsy, hepatitis, haemophilia, HIV-AIDS or any other communicable disease, heart condition or I take medication that thins the blood, I have advised my tattoo artist.
3. I do not have medical skin conditions such as, but not limited to: acne, scarring (keloid), eczema, psoriasis or sunburn in the area to be tattooed that may interfere with my tattoo. If I have any type of rash or infection anywhere on my body, I have advised my tattoo artist.
4. I understand that if I have any skin treatments, laser hair removal, plastic surgery or other skin altering procedures, it may result in adverse changes to my tattoo.
5. I acknowledge it is not reasonably possible for the artist to determine if I might have an allergic reaction to the pigments or processes used in my tattoo. I accept the risk that such a reaction is possible.

I agree to release, forever discharge and not hold Vinterdoodle liable, from any and all claims, damages or legal actions arising from or connected in any way to my tattoo or the procedure and conduct used in the application of my tattoo.
