2. Eligibility and Age Requirements

You must be at least 18 years old to receive tattoo services from Shifty Gypsy Tattoo.

3. Health, Consent, and Waivers

Before receiving any tattoo, you will be required to complete and sign an in-studio consent and health form. You must answer all questions honestly and completely.
By signing, you confirm that you are in suitable health to receive a tattoo and that you understand the potential risks (including, but not limited to, infection, allergic reaction, scarring, and other complications).
You agree to follow any pre-care and aftercare instructions provided by your artist.
Shifty Gypsy Tattoo does not provide medical advice. If you have health concerns, you should consult a medical professional before or after receiving a tattoo.

4. Booking, Deposits, and Payments

We may offer online or in-person booking options for appointments. Details such as deposit amounts, scheduling rules, and pricing may vary by artist and will be communicated at the time of booking.
Some appointments may require a deposit to secure your time slot. In many cases, deposits are non-refundable or may be forfeited if you cancel late or do not show; specific deposit terms will be explained to you when you book.
We use Square and/or other payment processors to accept payments. By paying with a card or digital method, you agree to the applicable terms of the processor.
All prices are subject to change and may vary based on design complexity, placement, size, and artist.
In-store gift cards may be available. Gift card rules (including expiration dates or usage restrictions, if any) will be provided at the time of purchase and are generally valid only for services or products at Shifty Gypsy Tattoo.

5. Rescheduling, Cancellations, and No-Shows

If you need to reschedule an appointment, we ask that you contact us at least 24 hours in advance whenever possible.
If you arrive more than 15 minutes late, this may be treated as a no-show, and your appointment may need to be rescheduled. Any applicable deposit may be forfeited at the artist’s or studio’s discretion.
Repeated last-minute cancellations or no-shows may result in refusal of future bookings.

6. Studio Rules and Refusal of Service

No kids or minors are allowed in the studio unless they are the client receiving services.
No alcohol or intoxication is allowed. If you appear under the influence of alcohol or drugs, service will be refused.
We reserve the right to refuse or discontinue service to anyone at our discretion, including but not limited to situations involving:
- Intoxication or substance use
- Abusive, threatening, or inappropriate behavior
- Hygiene or health concerns
- Requests for hateful, discriminatory, or otherwise inappropriate content
If service is refused or discontinued due to violation of these rules, any deposit may be forfeited.

7. Artwork, Designs, and Intellectual Property

Tattoo designs created by Shifty Gypsy Tattoo and its artists are considered artistic works. The artist typically retains copyright and intellectual property rights in the artwork.
You have the right to wear the tattoo on your body, but you do not automatically gain rights to reproduce the artwork for commercial purposes (such as logos, merchandise, or branding) without written permission from the artist and/or the studio.
Custom designs are generally intended for the specific client who commissioned them. Artists reserve the right to decide whether similar or derivative designs may be used for other clients.
You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute the design in any form (including digital or printed copies) for commercial use without explicit written permission.

8. Touch-Ups

Touch-up policies may vary by artist and by tattoo. Some artists may offer a complimentary or discounted touch-up within a certain time frame, while others may charge a fee.
Eligibility for touch-ups may depend on whether you followed the aftercare instructions, the placement and type of tattoo, and how the tattoo has healed.
Your artist will explain any touch-up options, conditions, and time windows applicable to your tattoo. Please discuss this directly with your artist at the time of service.

9. Photos, Portfolio Use, and Social Media

We may photograph your tattoo for our records and portfolio. These images may be used on our website, social media accounts, printed materials, or other marketing and promotional channels related to Shifty Gypsy Tattoo.
We typically focus on the tattooed area and do not include faces unless the tattoo is on the face or requires facial context.
By receiving services from us, you understand that we may photograph and use images of your tattoo for shop-related purposes unless you request otherwise. If you do not want your tattoo photographed or posted, inform your artist or contact the shop, and we will respect your request.

10. Risks, Aftercare, and No Medical Advice

Tattoos carry inherent risks, including but not limited to: infection, allergic reaction, scarring, skin irritation, ink spreading (“blowout”), and other complications.
Your artist will provide general aftercare instructions. It is your responsibility to follow these instructions carefully.
Shifty Gypsy Tattoo is not responsible for problems that arise from failing to follow aftercare instructions or from personal health conditions, lifestyle, or environmental factors outside our control.
Results vary based on factors such as skin type, placement, size, color choices, aftercare, and personal lifestyle (e.g., sun exposure, skincare routines).
We do not provide medical advice. If you experience unusual symptoms or suspect a medical issue, you should contact a medical professional immediately.

11. Text Messages, Email, and Communications

With your consent, we may send you text messages and/or emails related to your appointments (such as confirmations, reminders, and updates), as well as promotional messages about specials, events, or shop announcements.
Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply.
You can opt out of marketing texts at any time by replying STOP and can opt out of marketing emails by clicking “unsubscribe.” You may still receive important transactional communications as permitted by law.
Consent is not a condition of purchase or service.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Shifty Gypsy Tattoo and its owners, employees, and artists are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or related to your tattoo, including but not limited to infections, allergic reactions, scarring, or dissatisfaction with the appearance of the tattoo.

In any case, our total liability for any claim related to the Services will be limited to the amount you paid for the specific service giving rise to the claim.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Shifty Gypsy Tattoo, its owners, employees, and artists from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your failure to follow aftercare instructions; or (c) your misuse of any of our Services.
