Policies


Deposits

Upon scheduling, a $100 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit is required per tattoo scheduled. THIS IS A NON-NEGOTIABLE POLICY. We work hard on getting the details for your appointment and try to create an organized schedule for you and Sadie. When you book, you are making a commitment. Should something come up and you need to cancel your appointment, this creates more work for our team to fill the spot that you originally booked. Deposits help to compensate our time lost and to hold people accountable for their commitments made.

Should you book three tattoos and pay a $300 deposit and then later decide to only get two, your deposit for the third tattoo ($100) will be forfeited. It will NOT be able to go towards your other appointments.

Your deposit can NOT be transferred to a friend or relative.

Should you book an appointment for a $600 tattoo and then decide to change to a $400 tattoo, the higher price will be owed. This is because we allot a certain amount of time for your appointment and changing to a smaller design is time and money lost on our end.

Should you book a $400 tattoo and want to switch to a $600 tattoo, we may need to reschedule your appointment to make more time for the tattoo. This will count towards your one-time rescheduling limit.


Cancellations and Rescheduling

Should something come up and you need to reschedule, your deposit may be transferred ONE time for immediate reschedule. This means when you message to reschedule, you will be required to select another appointment time during the current booking period. Should you need to reschedule a second time, your deposit will be forfeited and a new deposit will be required to book another appointment. Again, deposits may not be transferred to another person.

We understand that things may come up and you may need to cancel your appointment. Please let us know rather than not showing up. All deposits are non-refundable for cancellations.


No-shows and Running Late

Out of respect for scheduled clients and the time reserved specifically for you, appointments require commitment.

We maintain a strict 48-hour cancellation policy. If you cancel with less than 48 hours’ notice or do not show up for your appointment, your deposit will be forfeited and 50% of the scheduled service total will be charged to the card on file.

Clients who no-show will not be eligible to reschedule unless 100% of the missed appointment balance has been paid in full.

Arriving 15 minutes late or more will be treated as a no-show. Appointment times are booked back-to-back, and late arrivals disrupt the entire day’s schedule. If you are late beyond this window, the session will need to be forfeited and rescheduled under the terms above.

Thank you for understanding and respecting the time set aside for your artwork.


Sick/Illness

If you are sick or showing any symptoms of being sick, please call in as soon as you can to let us know that you will need to reschedule. We will honor your deposit as long as you let us know by the morning of your appointment and would be happy to reschedule you. This will count as your one-time deposit transfer for rescheduling.

Unexpected Pregnancies

Sadie’s clientele is 80% female. This means that we deal with a lot of cancellations regarding unexpected pregnancies. We are always so happy to hear the news, but also sad to have to cancel your appointment as Sadie does not tattoo pregnant women.

Deposits are non-refundable as we have no control over any unexpected circumstances including pregnancies. We work hard at working with you to get all the details for your appointment and try to create an organized schedule for you and Sadie. When you book, YOU are making a commitment. Should something come up and you need to cancel your appointment, this creates more work for our team to fill the spot that you originally booked. Deposits help to compensate our time lost and to hold people accountable for their commitments made.

We understand that this can be frustrating, which is why we have kept our deposits VERY low in comparison to other tattoo artists in the industry.

If you are not comfortable or do not agree with this policy, we understand and prefer that you hold off on booking an appointment.

After your pregnancy is over, we’d be happy to rebook with you with a new deposit required. ❤️
