Booking Fee Policy

At Innovative Ink, we require a non-refundable booking fee for all tattoo appointments to secure your booking. This policy ensures that our artists’ time is respected and that your appointment is reserved specifically for you. By paying your booking fee, you agree to the terms outlined below:

  • A non-refundable booking fee is required to secure every tattoo appointment.
  • Your booking fee is deducted from the final cost of your tattoo.
  • Booking fees cover the time and effort involved in designing your tattoo and holding your appointment time.
  • No booking fee = no appointment. Your booking is not secured until proof of payment is received.
  • Booking fees are strictly non-refundable under any circumstances, including cancellations, no-shows, or change of mind.
  • You may reschedule once without losing your booking fee if at least 48 hours’ notice is given. Any reschedules after the first, even with notice, will result in forfeiture of your booking fee and a new booking fee will be required.
  • Less than 48 hours’ notice, or failure to attend, will result in loss of your booking fee.
  • Cancellations always forfeit the booking fee.
  • Significant design changes on the day of your appointment will require rescheduling and a new booking fee. Please discuss any changes with your artist as early as possible.
  • If your booking fee is forfeited, a new one is required to rebook.

Important: All booking fees are strictly non-refundable under any circumstances.
