Tattoo Appointment FAQ The Field Manual

Start with the “Start a Project” form. After Yana reviews and accepts the proposal, you will receive a private link to choose an available appointment and pay the deposit.

A client may reschedule once and keep the deposit by providing at least 48 hours notice. The new appointment must be within 90 days. Cancelling, not attending, or arriving more than 30 minutes late forfeits the deposit and requires a new deposit to rebook.

If Foxy Ink cancels or reschedules for a studio-side reason, the deposit may be carried over or refunded in full at the client’s preference.

Clients must be 18 or older on the appointment date. Foxy Ink does not tattoo minors, with or without parental or guardian consent. Original government-issued photo identification is required at every appointment.

No. Foxy Ink is a private studio and works by confirmed appointment only.

$180 per hour, billed in six-minute (0.1 hour) increments. Tattoos taking 40 minutes or less are a flat $100. Work over 40 minutes is charged at the hourly rate for the whole appointment. All prices are plus 5% GST.

The rate quoted when the appointment is booked is the rate the client pays.

Any estimate is provided for planning and is not a price cap. The final price is based on the actual appointment duration and approved scope under the rate quoted when the appointment was booked.

A $100 non-refundable deposit is required to hold an appointment and is deducted from the final price of that tattoo. It covers the time held and design work already completed and is not a penalty.

The $100 payment reserves that one-of-a-kind design exclusively for the client and acts as the normal appointment deposit. It is deducted from the final tattoo price, which is calculated under the published studio rates.

Design and consultation time is included in the hourly rate. Two rounds of substantial drawing changes are included; further design time is charged at the hourly rate. The client approves the stencil, placement, sizing, spelling, dates, translations, and symbols before tattooing begins.

One complimentary touch-up per tattoo is available for minor healing issues and must be booked and completed within six months. The complimentary touch-up does not cover hands, fingers, feet, toes, elbows, knees, lips, inner ear, and other high-friction or high-movement areas; white ink, UV ink, and fine white highlights; cover-ups, reworks, scar tissue, and existing tattoos; healing affected when aftercare was not followed, or by sun, pools, hot tubs, open water, picking, or scratching. Further touch-ups, changes, or additions are charged at the hourly rate with the $100 minimum.

Payment is due in full at the end of each appointment. Foxy Ink accepts e-transfer, cash, and payments processed through Square. No refunds are provided for completed work.

One guest may accompany a client in the studio with advance notice. Every guest must be at least 18 years old. Additional guests cannot be accommodated, and a guest may be asked to leave if safety, hygiene, or the appointment is disrupted.

Foxy Ink inspects original government photo identification at every appointment. The studio records the identification type, last four digits, and date of birth, but does not photograph or retain a copy of the identification.

A client who cannot present valid identification cannot be tattooed and forfeits the deposit.
