RESULTS:
Microblading is an ART, not a science. Results are extremely dependent on how one heals and will vary with each individual client. Successful results and specific color requests are not guaranteed (especially on those with problematic skin and or cover up an old tattoo) and additional sessions, at a minimum charge, may be required to obtain desired results. Although I use premium products and provide quality services, every client heals differently and many factors can lead to varied results. I do not guarantee perfect proportions or symmetry as some bone structures and muscle movements do not call for it. The final shape is completely your decision, and tattooing will not start until you decide on the final shape. Please read through my entire FAQ section carefully to see if this procedure will be beneficial to you. All services provided are non-refundable.
STRICT NO SHOW & LATE CANCELLATION CHARGES:
+ 50% late cancel fee
+ 100% no-show fee
DEPOSITS:
A $100 deposit is required in order to book and confirm your appointment and will be deducted from the total cost of your service. 48 hours notice is required to reschedule or cancel your appointment. Deposits are non-refundable if you choose to cancel or reschedule your appointment within 48 hours from your appointment. Please respect my time. For out of town guest spots, deposits may increase or vary and will be non-refundable if you choose to cancel within 7 days from your appointment so do please give ample notice, so I can at least fill that spot if you can’t make it.
TOUCH-UPS ($100):
We highly recommend coming in for a “perfecting session” touch-up appointment, which must be booked no sooner than 4 weeks and no later than 8 weeks after your initial session. Touch-ups are only for existing clients, after 4 months it is considered an annual touch up. You will lose your touch-up if you choose to cancel or reschedule within 48 hours of your appointment and a minimum charge will apply for rescheduling. If you choose to book your touch-up after 8 weeks, there will be a minimum charge and additional touch-up appointments will be charged depending on the timeframe from your last appointment.
