How to Request a Tattoo

• Use the booking form linked on this page to request a tattoo. Please no emails, texts, or Instagram DMs about booking a tattoo.

• I prioritize black+gray and line-work tattoo requests. I am accepting a minimal amount of color tattoo projects that involve solid color-blocking.

• No placements on palms, feet, necks, or heads.

• I review requests based on creative interest and/or my ability to tattoo it well. Please don’t take it personally if I don’t feel I’m a good fit for your idea!

• I respond to accepted requests via email - check your Spam!

Scheduling & Deposits

• The acceptance email will include links for scheduling and paying your deposit. Please do both of these steps in a timely manner to ensure you get a spot in the calendar as it can fill up quickly.

• I tattoo Wednesday - Saturday, 10am - 6pm and book up to 2-3 months out.

• I typically book 1-hour, 2-hour, or 3-hour sessions. I will do my best to let you know in advance if I think the tattoo will take longer than scheduled. You will only be charged for how much time the tattoo actually takes.

• I require a $50 deposit for appointments up to 2 hours, and $100 for appointments that are 3 hours or more. Failure to pay the deposit within 48 hours of scheduling will forfeit your time slot.

• Deposits go toward the total cost of the tattoo and are non-refundable. If you need to reschedule for any reason, I require 72 hours advance notice (3 days) or you will be required to pay another deposit in order to reschedule. The deposit then covers the missed appointment. We are a small private studio and its challenging to fill last-minute openings.

Designs & Drawings

• I only begin drawing after the deposit has been placed.

• If you would like a consultation, we can schedule to meet in-person or over Google Meet after you’ve placed your deposit. I do not charge for consultations.

• I typically send drawings the day before the appointment for you to look over and provide any edits. Upon request, I’m happy to send a draft up to 3 days in advance. I can provide up to 2 rounds of edits. Any major changes outside of your original request will be subject to my hourly rate.

• I prefer to work out smaller tweaks and edits together in person at your appointment, it goes much quicker!

• I do not copy other artist’s work directly and will be recreating any reference material into my own style. Exceptions to this are drawings by your family and friends, or designs you’ve purchased from another artist specifically to get tattooed, which I review case-by-case.

At the Appointment

• Prep: Get a good night’s sleep, eat a full meal at least an hour beforehand, and bring a valid government-issued ID, water and snacks!

• Location: You can find the studio address and parking info here. Please note where our entrance is before you arrive.

• Payment: You’ll pay the remaining balance at the end of your appointment. I accept cash, Venmo, and card at the studio (cash/Venmo is preferred!)

• Bringing People: you are more than welcome to bring someone with you to your tattoo appointment, but due to the limited space in the tattoo studio, please only bring one additional person. We do not allow any animals in the studio. Infants/young children should have another adult present to supervise them while you are getting tattooed.

Booking A Touch-Up

• Touch-ups are free and must be booked within one year of completing the original tattoo.

• Please note that fine-line tattoos will often require a touch-up due to the healing process of fine line work.

• For touch-ups, email me at becky.waterhouse.art(at)gmail.com or text me at 585-204-2076 with photos of your tattoo and your general availability. You do not need to fill out the booking form. Please no Instagram DM’s regarding touch-ups.
