Masks: Regardless of vaccination status, clients must wear a N95, KN95, or double-mask surgical/cloth masks to their appointments. I work while wearing a well-fitted KN95.
Risk factor: Please be aware that the contact shared by a tattoo artist and client is an unavoidable COVID risk factor in getting tattooed. Being vaccinated, wearing a mask, and keeping up good sanitation only reduces the risk of transmission, especially in close-contact, indoor settings such as our tattoo studio.
Being tattooed will also put some stress on your immune system during the healing process. Please consider what you will need for a safe and healthy recovery in the weeks that follow a tattoo, especially a large and intensive session.
Rescheduling: If you have agreed to an appointment: In the event that you experience COVID symptoms, case numbers rise, or if you simply reevaluate and no longer feel safe coming in, I will take absolutely no offense, or penalize you if you choose to reschedule to a later date. Your deposit will not expire.
COVID-19 shop protocol for clients
We are currently unable to host events, including flash walk-in days, and will be operating on a strict appointment-only basis. If you have an appointment, please carefully read and adhere to the following:
You will be given a contactless consent form to fill out before entering the studio.
If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, have a cough, or feel sick please stay home and reschedule your tattoo appointment as soon as possible. I will extend the same courtesy if I experience symptoms.
Wear a mask over your nose and mouth and keep it on for the duration of your time at the shop, adjusting/touching it as little as possible.
Do not bring any guests to your appointment. If you have accessibility needs requiring another person please discuss with me in advance of your appointment!
Upon entering the shop, immediately proceed to the sink and wash your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds.
Keep snacks, drinks, and personal belongings to a minimum, and only bring essentials.
