Full Day Custom Session Pre-booking info
How do full day custom session appointments work?
You’ll arrive for your appointment at 11:00 and we’ll look over your custom design. If minor adjustments or changes are needed, that’s no problem. If major re-drawing is needed, we may need to reschedule with a new deposit. This is why a consultation is required before booking a full day—I want to be sure I have all the information needed to get your design just right! I don’t want anybody’s time (or money) to be wasted.
We can discuss what’s possible to complete during your session, but for general reference; depending on detail, a 3x4" tattoo could take from 1.5-3 hours. A 4x6" tattoo could take around 3-4 hours. Larger designs are more difficult to estimate and naturally require more flexibility—keep in mind that if the project is very large and/or super detailed, the full day session doesn’t guarantee that your tattoo(s) will be finished. I always do my best to communicate expectations as we go, including ahead of time at your consultation!
After you approve your design(s), we will place stencil(s) and get to tattooing. We can take breaks whenever you wish. About midway through the day, we’ll take a meal break.
Full day sessions do not break down strictly to an hourly rate for tattooing, but at maximum we can tattoo 5 hours. It’s up to you whether you want to sit for that long, or if you’d rather take it easier. The flat rate reserves my entire day for you, so whether you aim for the max amount of tattoo time or choose to “tap out” earlier, the full $1000 is due (minus your deposit!) and our session will end at 6:00PM.
Pricing
Flat rate of $1000 with a $200 deposit deducted from the total.

Reschedules and Deposits
If something comes up and you need to reschedule or cancel, please do so with as much notice as possible. Your deposit reserves my time for your appointment, and since this is a full-day appointment I require at least one week’s notice in order to transfer your deposit to a rescheduled date.
