Policies
Required documents
ID (can be a driver’s license, passport, or tribal ID. Must be valid with no missing pieces.)
Any notes from doctors (if you’re taking medications that affect the skin, blood, or nervous system. This includes medications taken by oral, topical, injection, or other methods).
Illness and COVID-19
Please reschedule if you (or anyone you live with) meet any of these criteria within two weeks of your appointment:
Have any symptoms of illness or fever.
Have an exposure to C-19.
Test positive for C-19.
The cancellation fee will be waived if it is due to illness or C-19, but please be considerate and let us know as soon as possible.
We have separate days available upon request for clients who would prefer to only be around fully vaccinated people. Please reach out to us with your availability if this is preferred.
Masks are required at all times, until further notice. We have masks available at no cost.
Rescheduling
Please consider your plans before booking your tattoo appointment. If you need to reschedule, please text us at least 72 hours before your appointment. Our phone number is included in the confirmation email - the subject line is “Confirmed appointment.”
Deposits and cancellation fees
Some of our artists require deposits to schedule an appointment. These deposits will be deducted from the final price of the tattoo.
Other artists do not require deposits, but instead require a valid card number to schedule an appointment. A cancellation fee of $125 will be charged under the same conditions that would result in the forfeiture of deposits.
An artist will either take a deposit OR a cancellation fee, never both.
Deposits will be forfeited, and cancellation fees will be charged under the following circumstances:
The client is a no-call/no-show.
The client arrives without ID, or a doctor's note if applicable.
The client arrives with a sunburn.
The client fails to cancel or reschedule their appointment with at least 72 hours' notice.
The client arrives more than 15 minutes late.
Deposits can be moved once, and cancellation fees can be waived, in cases of illness or COVID-19, but please be considerate and notify us as soon as possible via text. Our phone number is included in the confirmation email, which has the subject line “Confirmed appointment.”
Photo ID
MN State law requires a valid (unexpired) driver’s license, passport, or tribal identification card. If your card is clipped, please bring papers from the DMV.
Medication
If you are taking any medications that affect your skin, blood, or nervous system, we require a note from your doctor. This includes medications taken by oral, topical, injection, or other methods. If you are taking any kind of antibiotic, please wait to get tattooed until after you complete the full treatment.
Numbing cream
The FDA has issued a warning; many numbing creams currently on the market are too concentrated to be used safely. Out of an abundance of caution, we will not be able to tattoo clients using numbing cream until further notice.
There are still options available to make your tattoo session more comfortable, such as using cold packs and taking breaks as needed. Bactine spray is still FDA-compliant, and we will continue to keep this on hand for clients.
If you are still concerned about pain management, please reach out to us directly and ask for a consultation.
Pregnant or nursing
Clients who are nursing will need to bring a note from their doctor stating that they've discussed getting a tattoo, and it has been approved by the doctor. We are unable to tattoo clients who are pregnant.
Sunburn
We are unable to tattoo clients who are healing from sunburn. Please wear sunscreen in the weeks leading up to your appointment. If clients arrive with a sunburn in the area to be tattooed, the $125 cancellation fee will apply.
Recent surgery or major injury
We are unable to tattoo clients who are healing from a recent surgery, or other major injury. Please text us to reschedule as soon as possible.
Changing your design
Please reach out to us via email if you are significantly changing your design at least 72 hours before your appointment. Significant changes to tattoo designs change the price and amount of time needed to complete the tattoo. In some cases, the appointment may need to be rescheduled.
Free touch-ups
Touch-ups are to correct fallout of ink. If you need a touch-up, please fill out our touch-up form here.
Tattoos done by our artists are eligible for one free touch-up* within one year, unless stated otherwise in the email with your estimate. If you’re planning on getting another tattoo at Peach, we recommend getting your tattoo touched-up in the same session (let us know beforehand so we can ensure we have enough time).
*We are unable to provide free touch-ups in the case of negligence (for example, going swimming with a new tattoo, or intentionally picking at scabs).
Studio minimum
The minimum price depends on where the tattoo will be placed.
Arms/legs: $125
Anywhere else (including hands, torso, etc): One full hour at the artist’s hourly rate.
Group appointments
We have a small studio with limited space. We are unable to provide group appointments. Clients are welcome to bring one guest.
Minors
It is against the law to tattoo anyone under the age of 18, or have minors in the studio. Please arrange for childcare.
