FAQs
Are you currently taking appointments?
BOOKS ARE OPEN FOR SAN FRANCISCO! I encourage everyone to look at my Instagram (@dojatatt) to see my work before inquiring about a tattoo. Please understand that during this time in order to further my portfolio has an artist, am only take on projects that: I feel comfortable with, fits with my style, I feel I can do to the best of my ability, are available flash or pre-drawn "one off" designs.
My personal style of tattooing will always reflect in the final piece. Stencils are just maps for me to follow. There’s a lot of trust that goes into booking with an artist. When coming to me with your idea, please understand that I am giving you my best interpretation of your piece.
Cover ups and re-works are on a case by case basis.
Do I get to see my design before the appointment?
I do not have designs available for viewing before the tattoo. When you arrive at your appointment, I will have it ready for you. If changes and adjustments need to be made, we can make changes together. If changes or adjustments require more time than allotted, a drawing fee or reschedule of your session may be required.
May I bring friends to my appointment?
In order to keep all of our artists and clients healthy, clients may not bring guests to appointments.
Do you do touch-ups?
Yes, I offer touch-ups on my own work up to 1 year. Usually touch ups will be free of charge, but may be charged a small set-up fee depending on how much work needs to be done.
*improper aftercare will void your touch up and you will be charged for a session.
Do you have an age requirement?
Yes. You must be 18 or older, regardless of parental consent.
How do I book an apt?
When my books open, you will fill out the booking form on my website. You may send as many references as you need to my e-mail. I will send you a booking link to schedule your appointment. You will leave a $50-100 non-refundable deposit to complete your appointment at time of booking. By completing your booking form, you are agreeing to all terms, conditions and policies upon submission.
Do I get my booking fee back if I cancel?
NO. BOOKING FEES are non-refundable. DO NOT PAY A BOOKING FEE IF YOU ARE NOT COMMITTED TO COMING TO YOUR APPOINTMENT. Booking fee does not go toward price of appointment.
*An appointment may only be rescheduled twice - after two reschedules a new fee will have to be paid.
Do I need a consultation to book an appointment?
No, consultations are not required! I may suggest a consult for larger pieces to take measurements and pictures of the space wanting to be tattooed. Consultations will only be offered once an idea has been accepted. Consultations are always free :)
What should I do to prepare?
Eat a good breakfast, and drink lots of water! Hydrating your body hydrates your skin and makes it a beautiful canvas to tattoo on. You may also feel free to moisturize the area you’re looking to have tattooed in the week before your appointment, but it is not required. Snacks and a little sugar also never hurt :)
No alcohol 24 hours before your appointment.
What do I accept for payment?
✨CASH ONLY✨. I have a pricing breakdown with examples under “booking & pricing” so you can budget how much the piece will cost. There is an ATM (BOA) across the street that is available but may be subject to fee.
