Tattoo Booking T&CS

🖤 Hello!!🖤

I'm Taylor, also known as Catzudon, thank you SO much for booking (or even just creeping my page lovingly from afar). I’m stoked to create something cool with you!

🚨 Before we get stabby:
Please read the T&Cs below, because by booking, you agree to them! If you ignore them and accidentally go against them thats on you!

✨ Other lil things to know:
🎧 I may wear headphones during your session to keep my lil brain on task, it's not personal, just gotta focus sometimes as this is on you forever.
📹 I might film parts for social media (don’t worry, no faces unless you’re down). If you’re filming, please warn me I beg.

Thanks for trusting me 💖
I’m so excited to tattoo you!

Taylor / Catzudon ✨

 

🎒What to bring to your tattoo adventure:
🪪 Valid photo ID (not expired, not your gym card)
💸 Exact cash or OSKO bank transfer, note there is no change given (I am but a humble goblin with no coins, we do not keep cash at the studio) 
✨You can use Buy now pay later options, please check out the options in my product page.
💧 Water or drinks to stay hydrated
👕 Comfy clothes / spares if your tattoo spot requires some wardrobe magic
🍱 Snacks! For long sessions you can bring lunch, we’ve got a fridge & microwave. Just... no tuna mornay, I beg you 🙏
🎧 Headphones if you wanna vibe
🧸 Comfort item if that helps you feel safe, just know I might ask it to sit out if it gets in the way or becomes a hazard!

🚫 What not to bring to your session:
❌ Plus ones, it’s just you, me, and the needle. Plus its studio rules (and I get stage fright hehe).
❌ Bad vibes, this is a good vibes only zone. Evil spirits will be politely escorted out. 
❌  Cursed objects, haunted dolls, or emotionally unavailable exes, unless they tip well.

Just bring your fab self and we’re golden ✨🖤

Rates:

My current rates as of 11/06/2025 are as follows;
Full day - $850
Half day - $450
Hourly rate - $150

A majority of the time you will be given a custom quote for your piece if it falls outside of the half or full day. I try to be as accurate as I can with my quotes and generally stick with them but I recommend bringing a bit extra with you on the day just incase you’d like to increase the size or circumstances out of my control lead to your tattoo taking longer than anticipated. I.e ; skin/health conditions, frequent breaks/inability to sit long etc.

My rates will change throughout my career, if you are already booked in my calendar at a previous rate please note I will always honour it. Continuation designs will be honoured at that pricing if booked within the year the pricing has changed. 

Quotes given for pieces not booked in yet are valid for 1 month, please reach out to me again to refresh my memory of your piece and to reissue your quote and new booking link. Bare in mind quotes of this nature may be adjusted to newer rates (if they have changed)if needed to be reissued.

📍 Where’s the studio?
I'm at Inkspector Clouseau's Tattoo Emporium, 254 Tapleys Hill Road, Seaton SA. There is no on site parking but the side streets right next to the studio are all day free parking! 

👯 Can I bring a plus one?
Sorry, no room for tagalongs! 🙅‍♀️ The studio’s small, shared, and extra bodies = trip hazards. Plus, watching tattoos is about as exciting as watching paint dry 🥱 Your buddy can swing by to say hi or check the design, but they’ll need to bounce before we start. No exceptions, it’s studio policy 🚫

💸 Booking Fee
A $100 booking fee locks in your spot and comes off the final price (as long as the T&Cs are respected ✅). It’s non-refundable and non-transferable between artists. No fee = no booking 😬

🔄 Rescheduling

Need to shuffle your booking? No problem,  just give me 72+ hours notice or your booking fee goes poof 💨💸. This rule applies to everyone, always!

📧 Email me at [email protected] to reschedule. Only message me on Insta if you’ve already emailed. DMs are an unreliable void📬

Gave enough notice? Sweet! You’ve got 1 week to pick a new date, and it must be within 3 months (aka while my books are open). Miss that window = new fee time 🔁

⚠️ Reschedule repeat offenders beware: Too many changes = fee forfeited + session cancelled. It’s not personal! Just hit me up when you’re ready for real. I gotta protect my time and other clients’ chances to book too ❤️

💥 If I reschedule (only for emergencies/illness), I’ll reach out fast with new dates. No fee refunds (as work has already been put into your session/design) but we’ll sort a new time, promise! 

📬 Contacting Me

For urgent stuff or to reschedule, email: [email protected] 📧
You can DM me on Insta (@catzudon.tattoo) but only after emailing. 

P.S. I’ve got a second job + draw a lot outside of tattooing, so I’m not always glued to my phone. ✨Please be patient with me!

😵‍💫 Tapping Out

It’s okay to tap out,  you’re human, not a robot! 🤖💥
If it happens, I’ll stop where the design makes sense so it still looks good. You might have to power through a tiny bit more, but we won’t leave it weird!

Payment? I won’t charge you a full day for 30 mins of tattooing, I’m not a villain 😈 But extra sessions = extra costs (materials, lost time, etc.). I’ll always be fair, just not self sabotaging 😅

At the end of the day I want you to come back to me and not leave with a bad taste in your mouth, but if booking in a full day and tapping out extremely early at least expect to pay for a half day and then we can discuss doing shorter sessions for you. These will be sorted out on a case by case basis though x

How Long Will It Take?

Short answer: as long as it takes 🐢🖤
Booking times are just for my calendar, not your tattoo session length.
We’re making forever art, not fast food ✍️🍟

Bring ID or No Tattoo!

You must bring valid, in-date government photo ID (license, proof of age card, or passport).
Even if you're obviously 30 or I have tattooed you before, no ID = no tattoo 🚫🖋️
Unsure if yours counts? Ask before the appointment! Dont just wing it!

⚠️ It’s illegal to tattoo anyone under 18 in SA, even with parental permission. No loopholes, no exceptions.

🎨 Design Stuff

Designs are a surprise on the day thats right, no sneak peeks! 👀✨
Tattoo theft is real, and this keeps my job safe. Don’t worry we’ll tweak minor things together if we need before we start.
Major changes = possible rebooking + new fee, especially if your brief was 🥴 vague. So send me all the inspo, thoughts, ramblings, everything! I can’t read your mind (yet 🧠🔮).

⚠️ FYI: If you don’t go ahead with your tattoo which is entirely your right, I have the right to sell the design to someone else as we keep rights to all designs (custom or flash) 👑🖼️

Touch-Ups

You get 1 free touch-up within 3 months on available weekdays only if you followed aftercare like a champ 🧴🛡️
After that, or if it's clearly not looked after (we can totally tell 😒), it’ll cost ya.

Already booked for something else? Small touch-ups can often be squeezed in just let me know ahead of time.

⚠️ No free touch-ups on weekends weekdays only! 🗓️

 

🚫 Lose-Your-Booking-Fee Bingo

Wanna know what not to do? Here's the hit list:
• Rescheduling 2–3+ times for the same booking 🎯
No valid ID = no tattoo 
• Showing up drunk, sick, sunburnt, or unwashed😷🌞💨
• Unsafe or unhygienic behaviour 🚱🦠
Numbing cream without approval ❄️🧴
• Not disclosing medical issues that may affect the safety of your session 🩺
• Not telling me it’s a cover-up or scar work these take longer so price will change and sometimes arent possible! ⚠️
• Turning up late (I’m on a schedule!) 🕒
Cancelling or changing your mind that’s okay, but the fee is gone.
• Being rude, gross, hateful, or aggressive I will stop mid-session. No tattoo for jerks 🚫👋

 

🖋️ What to Expect on Tattoo Day! 🎉

First time? Nervous? Just nosy? Here's a fun lil’ rundown of how sessions usually go:

🥐 Before You Arrive

• Eat brekkie! Hungry = cranky = ouch 😵
• Keep an eye on your email/DMs for last-minute updates 📬
• No painkillers or numbing cream unless I’ve OK’d it 🚫💊
• Bring: snacks, drinks, comfort stuff, fully charged devices 📱🍿
• Bonus: fridge & microwave available (just be concious of stinky foods 🐟❌)

🛋️ Arrival & Setup

• Say hi 👋 Fill in consent form 📝
• I’ll show your design + we’ll tweak sizing 🔍✏️
• Gotta pee? Do that before we stencil! 💨🚽
• Stencil time! 
• Once you’re happy, stencil “cooks” for 5 mins or so 🍳
• I’ll set up the remaining of my station while you chill 🧃

🧠 During Your Tattoo

• I might pop on headphones 🎧 especially during linework so I can laser focus. 🔫
• You’ll get a few test lines to get comfy, then it’s go-time! ⚡
Breaks are totally okay BUT:

  • Too many = more pain 🧟

  • We’ve got a schedule ⏰

  • Sweat = smudged stencil = sadness 😓

    Remember I need a break sometimes too so there is no shame!!!

📸 After the Tattoo

• Mirror check, let me know if anything needs a tweak 
• Photo time! May involve lighting wizardry 🧙‍♂️📷
• Want pics? Just ask!
• Wrap up, aftercare chat, and payment 💸

🎤 That’s the gist! Any questions? Holler at me! 🐱‍🏍

Can’t wait to hang with you! 🖤
