Artist

At Tales our priority is giving our clients the very best treatment, and we focus all our efforts into creating beautiful pieces of art that they are proud to wear for the rest of their lives. We book personal consultations for every client, to discuss in detail what is wanted from the artist and ensure that every possible effort is made to create your perfect tattoo. All tattoos and consultations are done in a relaxed, inviting and friendly environment quite different from any typical tattoo studio you may have come across and we are very proud of the service we provide.

We are all unique

So is the story we have to tell and the perspective from which we tell it.

Tattoos are a way to communicate

They communicate our individulaity and our story in an aesthetically pleasing way to the people around us, to connect with them and make them a part of that story. Our goal at Tales is to give each client an experience as unique as each tattoo.

DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR A CONSULTATION?

Consultations are free of charge but must be booked in advance to ensure you get time dedicated to you. This gives us a chance to sit and discuss all the specifics (including pricing) of your tattoo and work together to gain a clear idea of your final design. It is best to have consultations in person so we can accurately judge size and placement of the design (it’s also nice to meet the person you will be working with face to face before you get tattooed), however they can be done by Skype too if this is more convenient.

WHEN DO I BOOK AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY TATTOO?

Once your consultation is complete, an appointment can be set for your tattoo. A deposit must be paid at the time of booking or it will not be possible to keep your appointment.

PLEASE NOTE; consultations and tattoo appointments can be scheduled for out of opening hours. We will do our very best to accommodate your available time.

HOW MUCH IS THE DEPOSIT FOR MY TATTOO?

1-1.5 hours requires £50 deposit

2-3 hours requires £100 deposit

More than 3 hours requires a 50% deposit

Deposits are transferrable to another date with a minimum of 48 hours’ notice, but non-refundable.

WHEN WILL MY TATTOO DESIGN BE READY?

The design for your tattoo will normally be made a maximum of one week prior to your appointment due to the high volume of bookings. The consultation process is a great way for us to both be on the same page in terms of the final design, however should you want to view the design prior to your appointment, a ‘design confirm’ can be scheduled no less than two days before your booking. For customers travelling internationally a Skype call can be made, but this will also need to be scheduled in our diary.

HOW LONG IS A SESSION?

Session time will vary depending on the scale and complexity of your tattoo. For large scale work such as half and full sleeves, back pieces etc, a minimum of 4 hours is required for the first session to ensure the tattoo is under way effectively. Future sessions can be booked for a length of time that suits you starting at one hour.

WHAT IF I HAVE TO CANCEL?

Should you need to reschedule your appointment, your deposit is transferable with a minimum of 48 hours’ notice, but non-refundable.
