Book a Consultation

Use this page to book a consultation. At consultation you will review the idea (including cover-ups), sign and initial the Tattoo Policy, then pay the 40% deposit in person through Square. A tattoo session date is reserved only after that.

What happens after you book

You book a consultation on Porter. That reserves consultation time only.
The artist reviews your form and photos (especially cover-ups).
Two things can happen:
If there is not time to start that day, you sign the policy, pay the 40% deposit, and a later session date is reserved only after that deposit.

Porter books a consultation, not a finished-session date by itself
The artist may review your form and confirm that date as a session before you arrive
Or the consult may become the first session when you get there if he has time
Policy is signed and initialed in person
40% deposit is taken in person with Square only after the policy is signed
A session date is reserved only after that deposit
Arrive prepared to sit — read How to Prepare and Tattoo Etiquette
