If I have any type of infection, rash, or lesion anywhere on my body, I will advise my tattooist.

  • I acknowledge that a tattoo is a permanent change to my appearance and that no representations have been made to me as to the ability to later change or remove my tattoo. To my knowledge, I do not have a physical, mental or medical impairment or disability which might affect my well-being as a direct or indirect result of my decision to have a tattoo.
  • I acknowledge I am over the age of eighteen and that I have truthfully represented to my tattooist that the obtaining of a tattoo is by my choice alone.
