Once you submit your deposit, I’ll personally reach out within 24–48 hours to coordinate your three-day training. Because these are private, one-on-one sessions, we’ll choose dates that work best for both of us. I’ll also send you instructions on how to prepare, including how to apply for your tattoo license before your model day.

Life happens, and I get it! I ask for at least 7 days’ notice if you need to reschedule your training dates. Your deposit will still apply to your rescheduled session. Reschedules made with less than 7 days’ notice may result in a new deposit being required. I’m always happy to work with you — just keep the lines of communication open.
