GENERAL GUIDELINES.
To book an appointment you must be minimum 18 years old.
​
The appointment will be confirmed once the deposit has been paid.
​
The design will be discussed during the appointment and not be shared before. Please provide an as detailed as possible description and inspiration pictures so we can prepare the design and finish it together during the appointment.
​​​
Once you get a tattoo at our shop, you'll get one free touch up session for that specific tattoo on that place.
​
For tattoos on hands and feet there will be no free touch up.
​
Once you walk out of the tattoo shop, all risks on infections are your own since you are responsible for the proper aftercare and can't be put on Sappho Tattoo or Sappho herself.
RISKS OF TATTOOS.
Applying tattoos involves some risks.
Make sure you're well rested and have eaten enough before your appointment. Inform me of any medication of skin problems, allergies, epilepsy and hypersensitivity reactions.
​
Do not get a tattoo:
- on places where you have undergone plastic surgery or radiation in the past year;
- on a scar that's less than a year old;

- on a place where a tattoo was lasered off less than three months ago or where the laser wound has not yet completely healed;
- on irritated skin such as bumps, dark moles or swellings;
- when you're under the influence of alcohol or drugs;

​
In addition, it is not recommended to get a tattoo if you suffer from one of the following conditions: ​
- diabetes
- haemophilia
- chronic skin disease
- allergy to tattoo materials or ink

​
Do you have any of these conditions or are you taking anticoagulants of antibiotics? And do you still want a tattoo? First discuss the options with a doctor and always let our artists know.
