Booking & FAQ

My Availability:
I’m in the studio:
• Wednesdays to Saturdays.
Replies may take a little longer outside of those days.

How to Book:
To book an appointment, you can contact me through:
• Instagram: @rareheart.art
• Email: rareheart.jen@gmail.com

Please include the following details:
• Your Idea + Photos: (describe as much as you can)
• Placement: (location of where you want it)
• Size: (ex: inches, centimeters, palm size, hand size, etc.)
• Your Availability: (days/times you are available)

Custom drawings are prepared in advance and can only be viewed on the day of the appointment.
Feel free to be as specific as you’d like, and let me know any other important details you would like to add.
Adjustments can be made the day of.

Deposit:
A $100 non-refundable deposit is required to book an appointment.
This amount will go towards the final cost of your tattoo.
After we've gone over everything and I’ve sent the deposit information, please be ready to send an e-transfer.

Appointment Reminders:
Reminders are sent out one day before your appointment.
If your appointment was booked less than a week in advance, a reminder may not be sent.
You don’t need to respond, but feel free to if you'd like.

Getting Ready for Your Appointment:
Get a good night sleep, drink lots of water and eat a full meal before your appointment.
You’re welcome to bring snacks or juice for an energy boost.
Feel free to bring earphones, a book, or anything else that helps you stay relaxed and entertained.
Daily moisturizing beforehand helps your skin take ink better.
You don’t need to shave the area being tattooed as I can take care of that for you. If you prefer to do it yourself, feel free to but be careful not to cut yourself.
Avoid tanning, sunburns, scratches, or any scabbing on your skin before your appointment.
Wear cozy, comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting ink on. Tattooing can get a little messy.
The bathroom is available if you need to change.
If you’re getting tattooed on a specific area, here are a few examples:
• Forearm: A loose short-sleeved T-shirt
• Sternum: A button-up shirt or something that opens at the front
• Back: A zip-up hoodie or top that can be easily removed
• Thigh: Shorts or loose pants that can be rolled up comfortably

Payment:
I accept cash or e-transfer.

Aftercare:
★ I’ll go over aftercare and healing with you before you leave.
★ I also have a dedicated aftercare page for reference.
★ Feel free to reach out with any questions.
