FAQ:
Q. What if I show up late to my appointment? A. You will be charged from the start of the appointment time, regardless of if you are late or not. Please be on time.
Q. Can I get a tattoo if I am pregnant or breastfeeding? A. Unfortunately, no.
Q. How long will I be in my appointment? A. This totally depends on the design and the client. Fine Line Florist will not give exact estimates on timing, but will often give a time frame (ie: 2-5 hours, etc).
Q. Can I do multiple sessions? A. Multiple sessions are often encouraged for larger tattoos and for anyone who is sensitive to pain. Please let FLF know if you don’t think you can do more than a certain amount of hours so you can be scheduled accordingly.
Q. Does FLF do cover-ups? A. Due to the fine line style, FLF will not be a good option for a coverup tattoo.
Q. When is the design showed to me for a custom tattoo? A. Generally the design is sent the day before your appointment.
Q. Can the design be changed for custom requests after the design is sent? A. Absolutely! If you requires major changes (ie: changing the whole design to a different idea), this will be done at the appointment and will affect the length of the appointment. If minor changes need to be made, this will be done before the appointment.
