Booking
All of our artists schedule based on a “books open/books closed” process. What this means is that each artist opens their books at different points in the year, and they keep them open for a small window of time in which you submit your tattoo proposal, and then your artist will get back to you if your project is selected. For the most up-to-date information about a paticular artist and their schedule, we recommend following their instagram accounts (links are in the “about” page). If we have any last minute availability or openings, we post these on our instagram stories, so we recommend keeping your eye out there.
For example. Lynx tends to open her books once a year in the late spring, and will book an 11-12 month stretch of time. Darcie tends to open her books at the beginning of each season, and schedules 2-3 months at a time.
New to our site and might’ve missed a “books opening window”? Don’t worry, sometimes we have spontaneous openings due to rescheduled/canceled appointments, and we post those openings on our Instagram stories.
We are so grateful to each and everyone of you that trusts us with your tattoo journey.
What Information will we need to book an appointment?
Each artist is responsible for their own bookings and we recommend checking out their personal websites or instagram accounts for the most up-to-date information, but hopefully this information helps you form a proposal!
Your name
Your Pronouns: We work very hard to create a safe and inclusive space for everyone, and if there are any reservations leading up to your appointment, please let your artist know.
Your email address: We conduct all appointment related conversations through email, there are many spam accounts popping up on Instagram and we will NEVER reach out on social media asking for a deposit or credit card info.
Tattoo Description: A general idea or concept of what you’re looking to have done.
Location: Where on your body were you wanting this piece, and approximate size?
Reference Images: Knowing that we will never copy an exact image, but to use as a reference point of what you like visually in terms of style, color, coverage, etc.
Context of your tattoo: This is not mandatory, but is sometimes helpful in the design process.
Phone number: This is in case of an emergency that we need to get ahold of you suddenly. We carry all of our appointment related conversations through email, but if for some reason we try reaching out to you via email and we don’t receive a response, we may shoot you a text.
I sent a proposal, what happens next?
We are so appreciative of everyone who sends in a proposal and shares their stories with us. We read every submission that is sent in and we try our best to respond as soon as we are able to, but it can sometimes take 2-4 weeks to get a response if your submission is accepted. We are just two moms who answer proposals when we have time between our tattoo appointments and spending time with our families, so your patience in advance is greatly appreciated!

Do you have questions about a pre-existing appointment, or couldn’t find the information you were looking for above? Feel free to reach out, but please note that this form isn’t for scheduling appointments. Each artist handles their own bookings through their personal websites and Instagram accounts, and this form is just for general information we may be able to help you with!
