POLICIES

  • Deposit Policy 

    • All appointments require a non-refundable deposit. Your appointment is confirmed once the deposit is received.

    • Your deposit will come out of the total price of your session (or the final session).

    • Payment is CASH only and payment is due at the end of each tattoo session.

    • I require at least 72-hours notice to change an appointment date and/or time. Otherwise you lose your deposit. No exceptions.

    • If you cancel an appointment with less than 24 hours notice you will be charged for half the cost of the planned tattoo session.

    • You may change your original appointment one time

      • If you need to move your scheduled appointment, you must reschedule within 30 days or your deposit will be forfeited.

      • More than one re-schedule requires a new deposit. Your original deposit will be forfeited and you will need to submit a new deposit to confirm a new appointment.

    YOU FORFEIT YOUR DEPOSIT IF:

    • You fail to give 72 hours notice to change your appointment.

    • You arrived more than 15 mins late without having contacted me.

    • You are over 30 mins late after contacting me.

      • At the 30-minute point, I will either start running the clock or may cancel and/or reschedule the appointment due to scheduling needs. For day-rate sessions, I will charge the full-day rate plus the time you are late to the appointment. I may need to end your appointment based on your originally scheduled start time.

    • You significantly change the concept of the design after I have worked on the drawing. I will tell you if I need to charge for significant revisions.

  • All tattoos I create are custom designs using my unique style and perspective to create your piece. I do not email drawings ahead of time, instead, you will see your design at the beginning of the appointment and any necessary changes can be made together.

    While I know people are eager to see their drawings, I find it's much easier to communicate in person. Additionally, I need to protect my drawings from being stolen. Again, if any changes need to be made, we will make them together.

    I am committed to you and your satisfaction. Please rest assured that we won't start your tattoo until both artist and client are happy with the design.

  • Pricing varies depending on the piece, I may charge an hourly rate, a flat rate, or a cover-up rate.

    • I will provide estimates for cost and time based on the design you describe in your initial tattoo submission and follow-up communications. Pricing will vary based-on various factors including: changes to design, color, size, placement, and appointment length.

    • I’m CASH only and payment is due at the end of each session. Deposits are redeemed on the final session of each piece. In addition to the total cost of each session, NY State requires tattooers to charge 4.5% on all tattoos.

    • Hourly Rates and Full-day Flat Rate sessions vary based on your tattoo. I will use my discretion to adjust my rate based on the project.

    All times/values provided to clients are estimates and may be adjusted by Ren as needed. Any additional time, above what is quoted, will be charged at Ren's hourly rate or, if applicable, day rate. 

    2026 Rates:

    • $500 minimum + 4.5% tax

    • $400/hour + 4.5% tax

    • $2,000 day rate + 4.5% tax

    • If you have budgetary restrictions, please let met know! I can offer options to work with your budget!

  • Tipping is customary but not required.

    General industry guidelines suggest the following:

    20% is customary for a positive experience (or more for exemplary
    service/work). Some clients tip at the end of each session and some wait until the final session of a large scale piece.

  • At Flowerhouse myself and my team are committed to providing a safe, respectful, and professional environment for both clients and artists.

    Service may be refused to anyone engaging in disruptive, disrespectful behavior, and/or conduct creating a hostile environment for myself, our staff, and/or other clients.

    *Please Note: Deposit Policies still apply despite illness.

  • Please follow all Aftercare Instructions posted on my site to ensure proper tattoo healing. If you followed these instructions and feel that your tattoo needs a touch-up, please contact me ASAP/within 3 months of the completion of the tattoo.
