About

This terms and conditions highlights how I work and conditions for cancellation policies, reschedule and design modification. As well as the studio guidelines and requirements for a smooth and safe procedure.

Requirements

  • You must be 18 or older to get a tattoo

  • Bring your ID with you on the day

  • Only the client must attend the appointment, no friends, family or pets are allowed in the shop during the procedure.

  • Use of numbing cream is prohibited

  • Placement restrictions: Larissa does not tattoo fingers, feet or behind the ear.

  • You must disclose any important information regarding your health such as ongoing treatments (antibiotics, acne treatment, cancer treatment), pregnancy, breastfeeding etc.

Deposits, rescheduling and bookings

To confirm a booking, a £100 deposit is required per client. Deposits may be higher for large-scale tattoos or multiple day sessions.

All deposits and payments are non-refundable and cannot be transferred to another person or a new project.

If a client needs to reschedule their appointment, the request must be made with at least 72 hours’ notice prior to the scheduled appointment time. Otherwise, the deposit will be forfeited. With sufficient notice, your deposit can be transferred once to a new appointment date within 3 months from your original date.

Deposits may be forfeited if the skin is unsuitable for tattooing or if numbing cream has been applied.

The remaining balance must be paid in full on the day of your session via bank transfer, card payment (Visa, Mastercard, Amex etc), or cash.

Design process

Every bespoke tattoo is designed specifically for each client with all my care and attention. I do not tattoo other artists' work or AI-generated designs. They can be used as references to communicate ideas, but not as the final tattoo.

Your design will be prepared for you based on the ideas you shared with me at the time of your booking. Designs are presented to clients on the day of the appointment in person, I do not send designs or sketches beforehand. Before tattooing starts, we'll review the design together and make any final adjustments until you're happy to proceed.

Should I require any further information during the design process, I'll contact you before your appointment.

If you would like to change the placement or any previously agreed details, please let me know as soon as possible rather than waiting until the day of your appointment. This gives me enough time to update the design and helps us make the best use of your appointment.

For clients who would like to see and develop their design in advance, I offer dedicated design appointments. These are charged separately from the tattoo session and are only available for projects that I will be tattooing. If you would like more information on this, let me know.

Touch Up

A complimentary touch-up session is available if the client has followed the aftercare instructions correctly and contacts us via email within 2 months of the original tattoo session to request and schedule the touch-up.

Requests made after 2 months from the original session will no longer be eligible for a complimentary touch-up.

A £50 touch-up fee will apply for touch-up appointments requested up to 6 months after the original session.

Touch-ups requested after 6 months will be treated as a new tattoo session and priced accordingly.
