Tattoo Description

Hey! Thanks for your interest in getting a tattoo from me! Here's some things to cover before continuing:
All appointments are approved upon sending a deposit. If you already have a deposit with me, choose "Continuation" in the options and you will hold your rate for up to 1 year* to avoid being charged more in the future. 
All appointments are booked at 1pm (unless otherwise communicated). 

Rates: 
1. I charge $160/hr* (for tattooing only, I dont charge for design or breaks)
*Rate will increase every 3-6 months. Those that continue to come back within 3 months will lock in their rate so it'll never increase. 

2. There's a 2 hour minimum (unless stated otherwise). 

3. There is a $100 (NON refundable) deposit* to book an appointment. Sent through here or venmo. 

My Venmo is @N3Tattoos 

*Continuation projects may roll deposits to keep a date in the schedule. 

*Larger projects pay require a larger deposit. 

*The deposit will only be used on the last session to insure the completion of the tattoo. 

-Do I need to book a consultation before the tattoo? 

In-person consultations aren’t always required. 

Projects that may require a consultation:
1. Working closely around an existing tattoo or covering other tattoos. 
2. A large area to base off flow of the body etc. 

Cancelations/Rescheduling:
If an appt needs to be rescheduled by a client and ample notice is given (72 hours) then they will be moved to the next available spot, which is usually within 2 weeks.
If an appt needs to be rescheduled by me then I generally try to book it as close to the original date as possible. 

Artwork/Design: 
Most projects are completed the night before the appointment. 
Occasionally freehand work is what works best for certain things. 
I try to give everyone something original, and design within my own style for the best results. 
If any changes need to be made to the finished design, they usually can be made the day of the appointment, if projects require too many changes, we will reschedule once. 
The best results come from good communication and trust.   

What’s next?
Once the deposit is sent you can book a date and time. More FAQ are on N3Tattoos.com or you can text 517-974-0434

Deposits are non-refundable in case of cancellation or no-show. However, if you reschedule your appointment using the link provided, your deposit will be automatically transferred to your rescheduled booking. If you still have a floating deposit, you are not required to put down another deposit. 

I can’t recommend Nate enough! His talent is unmatched and his creativity brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Nate worked with me on the design, listening to my ideas and adding his artistic touch to create something unique and stunning. The atmosphere in the shop  was relaxed and inviting each time I was there. If you’re looking for a skilled artist who delivers both incredible work and an amazing experience - Nate’s your guy! 

Nate is great, we had to reschedule our appointment But, Nate made sure to communicate this to me in a timely manner and went over my design with me and was open to my input.  Nates designs are awesome and can't wait to wear it.

Nate is an amazing tattoo artist.  He took an inspirational photo of something like I wanted and made it his own and even better than the inspirational photo itself. He’s awesome and 10/10 would recommend to anyone and definitely get tattooed by him again. He is great!!

Fun uplifting atmosphere would highly recommend stopping by 

Nate is nothing short of amazing. Everything you desire in a solid tattoo artist. Respectful, honest, inspiring, quick and a light tough.  I look forward to working with you on this project and future ones. Thank you for all that you do.
