Troshin

• Describe your tattoo idea in full detail and the location on your body where you would like the tattoo.

• Email the images that you would like to use for reference. These images are important because they allow Dmitry to visualize and design the tattoo properly.

• Please also send a photo of the location on your body where you would like the tattoo done.

• Note that we will not use or accept images of other tattoos as reference images as Dmitry will not copy other artists’ designs.

• It is important to ensure the project is a good match for Dmitry before we can discuss available appointment dates and accept deposits.

• At the beginning of your first appointment, we will discuss and finalize your tattoo design. Designs will not be prepared prior to the session. Dmitry will design a first draft with your direct input – we can brainstorm together and see if anything needs to be improved or added. This process usually takes around one to two hours and is a part of the session’s time.

• For larger or more complex projects, we may need to spend your first session working on the design. In this situation, payment will be treated for the design session as it would be for tattooing time at the usual rate.

• • Our rate depends on a project:

  Small projects:(1-3 sessions) - $4,500 per session

  Medium projects: half sleeve, chest panel (4-7 sessions) - $4,000 per session

  Large projects: full sleeve, back piece, front panel, leg sleeve (8-15 sessions) - $3500 per session

  • Dmitry’s average session is around 5 hours.

• Smaller tattoos require our minimum of $2,000 – this will cover up to 2 hours of work. If the tattoo requires time beyond that, each additional hour will be billed at $900 per hour.

• A deposit is necessary to secure your appointment – this is $1500. The deposit will be applied to the final tattoo session if the project requires multiple sessions.

• Payments for tattoo sessions are due immediately at the end of each session.

• If you’d like to skip the line and get tattooed in the next week - we can book you in for our nearest day off; the cost of the session, in this case, will be your current rate x2.

• All large projects must be completed in one year. After that, the rate must be adjusted, as we usually raise pricing once per year. Please plan your sessions accordingly.

• We accept cash and cards as our only payment methods. For card payments, a 3% processing fee will be added to the total payment. Cash payments do not have any additional charge.

• Deposits are non-refundable. The deposit can be paid in cash or online using a credit card. For card payments, a 3% processing fee will be added to the payment.

• Once we agree on all the details regarding your tattoo project, we will send you the invoice for the deposit. If you need to change the date of your appointment due to unforeseen circumstances - please let us know at least seven days prior to the session so we can rearrange our schedules. A new deposit will be required to continue working together if you cancel or reschedule with less than seven days’ notice. You can reschedule your appointment only once without losing your deposit.
