Deposit and appointment policies
Policies
A $100-200 deposit is required to reserve your time slot, depending on the scope of the project. Deposits are applied to the total price of your tattoo on your final session.
Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable to other people or to other designs.
I can take deposits through Venmo @amy-muller.
I can also take deposit in cash during your consult or to be arranged for drop off for me.
If you need to reschedule your appointment, please let me know 48 hours before your appointment or you forfeit your deposit and will be required to pay an additional one.
If you are sick on the day of your appointment, please do not come to your appointment and let me know you have to reschedule. You will not lose your deposit if you reschedule due to illness, minimum 2 hours before your appointment.
Please arrive on time. If you are running late, shoot me an email or call the shop.
Deposits are good for up to 3 months and for no more than 2 reschedules.
One touch up session is included in your price, up to a year from your last session. If anything heals weird with your tattoo please let me know, I want to fix it for you! If you’re not sure if your heal out is normal, feel free to contact me and I’ll let you know if I think you could benefit from a touch up session.
About Our Spaces
We are a queer space, please do not assume someone’s pronouns in the shop, whether it be another client or an artist. Feel free to ask me if you’re unsure how to address someone, but using they/them is fine until you get a formal introduction. My pronouns are she/her.
Transportation
Pretty In Ink: Oakland:
If you are driving to the shop, you will need to park on the street. Much of it is metered. Do not leave valuables in your car.
We are closest to 19th St. BART station, about a 10 min walk, one mile away.
We are on 24th st cross street Telegraph, a couple doors down from The Good Hop.
Private Studio Barcelona:
I will send you the address after deposit is received.
First Tattoo?
I do my best to prevent ink from splashing on clothing, though it is always a possibility, so I recommend wearing something you would not mind possibly getting ink on.
Wear something comfortable where we can easily access the are to be tattooed.
Please have something to eat before your tattoo. I recommend something substantial with protein and carbs. Feel free to bring snacks with you. Protein bars, candy, and electrolyte drinks are all good choices.
You may take ibuprofen prior to your appointment if you are able to take ibuprofen. I personally take 800mg before I get tattooed to help with swelling and discomfort.
It helps to be properly hydrated and not hung over!
Please shower before your tattoo. If you are getting your feet or ankles or calves tattooed, please wash your feet and wear clean socks.
You are welcome to wear headphones if it helps you sit for your tattoo. I’m happy to chat with you or let you zone out. Feel free to let me know your preference but I always do a vibe check, so no worries. If there’s anything I can do to help you get through the session, let me know!
I look forward to working with you!
