​
How do I book an appointment?
​
Start by filling out my form on my contact page. Please answer it as detailed as possible. I do require a$75 deposit to book a tattoo appointment.​ On my booking site all services will require at least a $75 deposit.
​
​
​
Deposits:
ARE NON REFUNDABLE.
You can pay online through an invoice I send or when you book an appointment on the square calendar.
How you can lose your deposit...
If you cancel last minute, no call no show, and are nonresponsive for a year, and don't reach out to reschedule.
In last-minute cancellations, I will ask for another deposit of $75 if you wish to reschedule, due day of original appointment. Both deposits are credited if you show up for the second appointment. I try to be respectful and give the client the chance to reschedule and recuperate some money. Unfortunately, if a clients cannot make an appointment after two attempts I am not interested in moving forward.

​
How do I book a consult?
​
CONSULTS ARE FREE, and you can select your preference on the contact page. Available Tuesday-Thursday anytime. You can also book them at Appointments | Samantha Weeks (square.site)

​
How much is my tattoo going to cost?
​
I charge for my time. It is currently $150 an hr.
I am always willing to design for your budget. Design, placement, and size, coloring all go into how much time it will take to complete a tattoo.
​
I’m not too fond of giving price quotes over messaging. Without seeing your final design sized in front of me, it's hard to estimate time. I will try and provide the highest and lowest I think it could be, but it is not a set price. You will need size, body placement, picture references, and a description of color to get a ballpark price.
​
My minimum is $150.
Can you draw my tattoo?
​
My preference is to design smaller tattoos in a all-in-one session. If you tattoo is smaller I can design with you on the tablet .
For larger projects or clients that want it designed ahead of time, I have no problem designing for them. All I ask is for time. Remember I am juggling about 10 drawing projects per week, and it usually takes me anywhere from 5 to 20 hours to complete a drawing project. Especially halfsleeves with so much detail. For getting someting drawn ahead of time, i prefer to start out with a consult. Then I usually ask for a drawing deposit of $125, $75 of that deposit goes towards the sum of your tattoo and $50 for my drawing time. Deposits are always on the books till the last session.
​
​
Are you open? Can I walk in?
​
Yes and no....our shop is open but appointment only. Sometimes artists will be there to answer questions, and sometimes they won't. If you are serious about a tattoo, it's best to book an appointment to ensure you will get service. I very rarely do walk-ins.
What's the address of your shop?
