Rosie Cole . Ink

♡ My rate is $150/hr with a minimum of $150♡ I ask for a $100 non-refundable deposit to book for most appointments. Smaller projects that I feel might only take an hour or less I might only ask for $50. The deposit goes towards the tattoo when we finish! I use Zelle, Paypal or Venmo for deposits, or you're welcome to drop it off in person.♡ If you ever need to reschedule, try to give me as much warning as possible (ideally 48 hrs) or you may need to pay another deposit. I will also hold onto a deposit in the case that you need to cancel for an uncertain amount of time, and I will still honor it when you are able to schedule again. There's not much you can do to really lose your deposit honestly, just be respectful of my time please!♡ Michigan has banned numbing creams and the use of bactine unfortunately. Some counties might be more lax, but Sterling Heights is super strict and I’d rather avoid the fine by keeping it in the open at the shop. That said, if you would like to use it, reach out to me beforehand and we can figure something out.Just be aware that numbing creams applied before the tattoo that I've ever dealt with usually last about 40 minutes to an hour, so you will still feel the tattoo over time! It can also affect healing and seems to affect everyone differently, so if a touchup is needed after numbing I may ask for a $50 touchup fee.♡ Regarding seeing art beforehand, I typically send art the day before your tattoo. Sometimes I send a sketch if I have a question or want to make sure I have something right, but I'm usually working on art a week before the tattoo.Because I'm working on art a week out, pleaaaaaaaase if you have any changes or specifications to your design, tell me a week or more in advance!♡ If it’s your first tattoo, the main things to know are hydrate beforehand, eat a solid meal, bring snacks and a drink if you want, comfy clothes, favorite blanket or plushie, whatever you want to be comfy! Making sure you moisturize the area well for a week ahead of time is super helpful too, it makes a big difference!Thank you!!
