tudio Policies

Masks

Masks are highly preferred during your appointment.

  • Please wear a high-quality mask (KN95 or equivalent strongly recommended)

Guests

Guests are not permitted.

This is to minimize exposure risk and maintain a controlled, low-traffic environment.

Food & Drinks

Please eat a solid meal before your appointment. This significantly improves comfort and tolerance during tattooing.

  • Food is not permitted inside the tattoo area

  • Drinks are allowed only if they have a lid and straw/mouthpiece

  • Please bring your own beverages and snacks if you would like them during the appointment

  • Food can be eaten in lobby

Drugs & Alcohol

You must not be under the influence of any substances at your appointment.

Pain Relief

  • Lidocaine Spray/Gel

    • Due to Oregon law changes, I can no longer apply lidocaine spray during appointments

    • You are permitted to bring and apply your own lidocaine spray

    • Maximum 5% lidocaine products only, no epinephrine (can affect tattoo results)

  • Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is permitted

    • Effect is typically minimal

  • Ibuprofen and aspirin are not recommended

    • These can thin the blood and increase bleeding

  • Stronger pain medications

    • Only acceptable if part of a prescribed regimen

    • Must be taken exactly as directed (no increased dosage)

Recreational Substances

  • You cannot be tattooed while under the influence of marijuana, alcohol, or other substances

  • Intoxication prevents legal consent and can negatively affect the tattoo experience

If you appear impaired, the appointment will be canceled.

Minors

Minors are not allowed in the studio.

  • Oregon law prohibits minors in the procedure area

  • Tattoo environments are not appropriate for children

  • You must arrange childcare for the full duration of your appointment

Arriving with a minor will be treated as a same-day reschedule:

  • Deposit is forfeited

  • A new deposit ($200) is required to rebook

  • Rescheduling is not guaranteed

Conduct

Wallflower Tattoo is committed to maintaining a respectful, inclusive environment.

The following will result in cancellation of your appointment:

  • Discriminatory or hateful language

  • Disrespectful or inappropriate behavior

  • Haggling or attempts to negotiate pricing

  • Micromanaging the tattoo process

I reserve the right to:

  • Cancel the appointment at any time

  • Refund your deposit at my discretion

  • Decline future work
