Deposit can refund?

Yes — it depends on the situation. Here’s our deposit and refund policy explained clearly:

• Purpose of the deposit
  The deposit reserves your appointment time, helps cover pre-session prep, and confirms your commitment. It is applied to the final tattoo price.

• Refundable situations

  • If we cancel the appointment (artist illness, emergency, or shop closure), your deposit will be fully refunded.

  • If you give us advanced notice and we can’t find an available alternative time that works for you, we’ll refund the deposit.

• Non-refundable situations

  • No-shows or last-minute cancellations: deposits are non-refundable if you do not show up or cancel within the shop’s late-cancellation window.

  • Changing idea/size/style very close to the appointment that requires turning down other bookings: deposit may be withheld.

  • If you change your mind after custom design work has already been started and the artist has spent time on your design, part or all of the deposit may be retained.

• Standard timing (example)

  • We typically require at least 72 hours notice to receive a full refund or to reschedule without losing your deposit. Less than 72 hours may result in deposit forfeiture. (If you need a different window, ask your artist — policies can vary by booking and artist.)

• How refunds are processed
  Refunds are returned using the original payment method whenever possible. Processing time depends on your bank or payment provider.

If you want to confirm the exact terms for your booking, tell me the appointment date or the artist you booked with and I’ll give you the specific policy for that booking.
