Policies + Safety
A bunch of important stuff you should know before getting tattooed. Policies, legal disclaimers, yada yada.
But seriously, read it. It’s for your safety!
Booking
Deposits are required for booking and are non-refundable.
After you’ve read over all of the policies and decided to commit to an appointment, book your appointment and pay a non-refundable deposit. The deposit holds the time for your appointment, goes toward the total cost of your tattoo, and is not eligible for refunds. Prices for deposits vary depending on the type of tattoo and depending on the level of work involved prior to your appointment.
Pricing
Jackie Rye charges an hourly rate of $400
Tattoos are priced based on how long it takes to complete the tattoo. Certain flash has flat rate pricing which is listed on the flash page.
If you would like an estimate or want to discuss pricing, feel free to reach out via email.
For larger custom pieces and multi-session pieces, reach out to discuss these projects with them directly. Pricing is tailored to the scale and complexity of the project. Full days are available starting at $1,600 for tattoos requiring at least 6 hours of tattooing (breaks encouraged and do not count).
Jackie Rye is committed to serving the community, if you are curious about sliding scale options, please reach out vie email.
Reschedule
Rescheduling will require another deposit.
Shit happens, please reach out as soon as you know you need to reschedule.
You must reschedule your appointment at least 48 hrs in advance of your original appointment to avoid forfeiture of your deposit. You will need to pay another deposit to hold your new appointment time. All deposits made will be deducted from the total cost of the tattoo.
Cancel
Tattoo deposits are non-refundable.
If you have to cancel your tattoo appointment without rescheduling, you will forfeit your deposit. Bummer, dude.
Please let me know if you do need to cancel. If you no-call-no-show, I won’t accept future appointments.
Disclosure
Public Act 375, which was enacted in December of 2010, indicates that individuals shall not tattoo, brand, or perform body piercing on another individual unless the tattooing, branding, or body piercing occurs at a body art facility licensed by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Body art facilities are required to be in compliance with the “Requirements for Body Art Facilities,” which provide guidelines for safe and sanitary body art administration.
As with any invasive procedure, body art may involve possible health risks. These risks may include, but are not limited to: transmissions of bloodborne diseases such as HIV and viral hepatitis, skin disorders, skin infections, and allergic reactions.
In addition, persons with certain conditions including, but not limited to, diabetes, hemophilia or epilepsy, are at a higher risk for complications and should consult a physician before undergoing a body art procedure.
If you wish to file a complaint against a body art facility related to compliance with PA 375 or have concerns about potential health risks, please visit www.michigan.gov/bodyart.
