FAQs

AFTERCARE

1. Remove bandage after two hours.

2.Using your fingertips wash gently and thoroughly with dial soap and warm running water. Be sure to remove all residue left from the application procedure,

3. Pat dry with a clean paper towel.

4. Apply a thin layer of Aquaphor. You must use the Aquaphor sparingly, rubbing it in as well as possible, you DO NOT want any excess ointment left on the skin.

5. Repeat step 2-4 three to five times a day for the next five days.

6. After five days switch to a light unscented lotion such as Lubriderm or curel. Until your tattoo is healed you should not submerge it in water as this will cause the ink to fall out of the skin. You must wait until the last scab falls off before swimming, or soaking in a bath. Keep your new tattoo out of the sun while healing. Exposing your fresh tattoo to the sun can cause the ink to lighten and will slow the healing process.

If you have any questions about the care of your new tattoo please do not hesitate to call.(530) 343-5233.

PRICING

Pricing depends on the size of the project. There is a minimum of $50.00 with and hourly rate of $100.00. For small projects we will most likely just give you a flat price. However with larger projects such as a sleeve or back piece will be charged the hourly rate. Portraits start at $200.00.

QUOTES

It is very difficult to give a quote over the phone (the lack of visual reference and extensively detailed descriptions usually leave both parties feeling exhausted). It’s easiest to come and talk to your artist face to face. Email is very valuable tool that comes in handy for simple ideas. If you have a tattoo that you would like to get a quote on please email your description and any photo reference to ben@eyeofjadetattoo.com

DRAWING

We require a $50.00 drawing deposit. This is to ensure that we are not wasting out time drawing to hours on end without ever tattooing the client. We don’t always get the design right the first time so we are willing to draw it up to 3 times. If after the third drawing the design still isn’t right then its time to either reevaluate the design, or find an entirely different artist.

APPOINTMENTS

For each appointment we take a $50.00 security deposit. This deposit doubles as the drawing deposit if you don’t already have a design ready. Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. If for some reason you need to reschedule, please give 24 hours notice via phone or email so we can open that slot for another customer.
