NEW CLIENT COVID PROTOCOLS

There are new protocols that I have in place to help with the new state of affairs and to do my best to keep myself and my clients as safe as possible. Below are the new guidelines I will be following until further notice:

• Please arrive at your appointment or consult right on time. Please do not come early, I will not be able to accommodate you to wait inside. Please wait in the lobby and do not come upstairs to the studio. I will come down and meet you.

• Appointments and consults will be for the client only

• Mask are now optional for both client and artists.

• You will be directed to wash your hands upon entry.

• If you have any coughing, fever or  Covid-19 symptoms (even if you think its allergies or just a cold) we will need to reschedule your appointment before your appointment. You will not lose your deposit. 

• Reschedule your appointment if you are sick or under the weather. If you show up and are coughing profusely, or showing Covid-19  symptoms (even if it is allergies or just a cold) we will end the appointment immediately and you will lose your deposit for not alerting me beforehand as requested. ( I understand coughing and sneezing happens but if its to the point where it becomes confused with potentially being illness I cannot take the risk) . Do not come in if you are sick, even if it is a common cold or strep, I don’t want to catch any illnesses from you and your healing will be compromised if you are sick while healing a tattoo.

• If you have come in contact with anyone who has been exposed to or has Covid-19 within 2 weeks of your appointment or consult we must reschedule your appointment.

• If you test positive for Covid-19 within a week after your appointment or consult you will have to contact me to let me know that I have been exposed so that I can take the proper precautions for all of my other clients and myself. 

• I will have a document with this information above outlined that you will have to sign to confirm that you fall within these guidelines

I understand that these guidelines may seem strict, extreme or excessive but with the amount of exposure to people we will have to undertake to continue tattooing, our safety, the safety of those around us, and the safety of all of our clients have to be held to the highest priority. Please be upfront if you need to disclose any of this information I have outlined. I understand we are all eager to get back to normal and that includes getting tattooed but this information is crucial to being able to operate successfully and safely even if it means delays in getting work done. 

  If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer them.  Thanks for your cooperation and bear with me as we navigate this new space of what tattooing will be like for the near future. I look forward to working with you all sooner than later!
