I am beyond happy and excited to say that I have available flash for sale. You can find them under "flash" under my booking tab. If you like what you see but aren't sold on anything, please feel free to screenshot what you like and request something similar! I would much rather create something amazing for you than to take my ideas somewhere else. <3

HOW MY BOOKING PROCESS WORKS
I only open my books a couple of times a year. Typically every 4 months. Booking everyone all at once provides mental clarity and ease to allow me to focus on my art and business and so that I can personally go through each and every submission that I receive. I also tend to travel throughout the year and plan events/ participate in them which requires advanced knowledge. I would hate to book out too far and then have to reschedule sessions to participate in such events.
​
When waiting for my bookings to open, I appreciate your patience and understanding and ask that you do not ask to book new appointments through DM or email.
All inquiries are welcome when booking form becomes available, or see TINY TUESDAY.
​
CANCELLATION POLICY
I do not require a deposit to secure an appointment, instead I apply a cancelation fee to rebook.
I respect that life happens and I'm happy to reschedule you or cancel your appointment with enough notice. Only cancelations at 48 hours or less will result in a cancelation fee.
This fee is $200 and would be charged upon requesting to rebook, or upon rebooking a new tattoo. Otherwise, you will not be rebooked.
Frequent reschedules may result in being dropped as a client.
No shows will result in being blacklisted.
Stupidity is not tolerated. :)
​
DESIGNS, QUOTES, & DAY- OF CONSULTATIONS
Designs are not given in advance.
I do not draw for commission nor do I draw in commission prior to appointments.
Designs are shown day of. All appointments have an included consultation where we will go over your design, make any necessary changes, discuss size and correct placement. I want you to have a perfect tattoo, So I typically come extra prepared and am overly- okay with making changes to fit extra requirements if needed.
​
Consultations are free, and can currently only be booked with a project that has been approved.
Consultations are usually booked 2 weeks prior to your approved tattoo session.
​
Some clients are invited in for prep sessions.
These are 30M-1HR sessions to prep larger scale stencils and intricate designs the night prior to a booked appointment.
​​​​
HOW TO BOOK
(WHEN THAT TIME COMES)
​​You have 48 hours to fill out a request form. This form becomes available on this page, on my social media, and will also be sent out directly via email to anyone on my emailing list.
​
Once I close down submissions, I will review them personally over the next 7-10 days and start sending out approval emails in this time. I often post to instagram and will keep everyone updated in the meantime.
Please be patient and double check your junk folders frequently.
​
Approved projects will be emailed with an appointment date and time. If you have any questions or need to change the date and/or time, please reach out immediately.
​
Some projects require more information in which I will email you and request a consultation before approval.
If you do not receive an email, please feel free to reach out once a final " BOOKS FILLED" update has been sent out.
​
Any other questions are also welcome at anytime,
please always email me using the general contact form on the main page my website, or at blackforesttattooco@gmail.com with subject ALINA

Thank you all so much,​​
