Deposits
-
Deposits are very important because they secure your appointment date and time with your artist. Be ready to put down a $100 - $300 deposit when booking with your artist. This amount will come off the final total of your tattoo.
You cannot secure an appointment date without a deposit.
-
No.
Your deposit is a safety net for the artist to protect them against cancellations. Your deposit will be used to compensate the artist for their time if you choose to cancel your appointment indefinitely.
We understand your money is important to you. In case of an emergency , be sure to contact your artist directly.
-
We understand that life happens and you may not be able to attend your appointment due to unexpected events.
Artists require a 48 hour notice to reschedule your appointment. Any cancellations under 48 hours will result in a loss of your deposit. The artist will require another deposit to rebook your appointment. Artists have the right to refuse rebooking cancelled appointments.

Your artist may spend a lot of time with you during your consultation / appointment, therefor your deposit can only cover yourself. If a family member or friend would like to book an appointment , they will require their own consultation and deposit.
Other FAQ’s
-
We do not recommend getting tattooed while breastfeeding and do not tattoo anyone who is pregnant.
If you have any further questions we recommend speaking to your doctor prior to booking an appointment.

Sunshine is ink enemy #1.
Staying out of the sun is key to tattoo aftercare that you need to take this part of your protocol very seriously. You need to wear UV protectant clothing over the area of your tattoo for at least three weeks before exposing it to the sun, and once the initial healing phase (3-5 days) is complete apply an eco-friendly (less likely to cause a chemical reaction) sunscreen to the area, even when you have a shirt over top.
If the area you would like tattooed happens to be sunburnt , you will have to wait until your skin is healed to come get a tattoo.

This will depend on what medication you are currently taking. Please advise your artist ahead of time if you are on any medications and consult with your doctor prior to booking your appointment.

“Had the pleasure to experience getting tattooed at Black Tulip. From the cleanliness to the professional customer service, it was an overall 10/10 experience to get a tattoo here. Made me feel very comfortable and welcomed into the shop as a person who gets tattooed frequently is a good feeling. Steve did an amazing job with communicating and making my design and experience the best it could be. Would highly recommend Black Tulip and will be back to get more work done! -Zach ”
