What happens to my deposit if I reschedule, cancel or I’m late?

Most studios keep the deposit if you cancel or don’t show up, but let you move it to a new date if you reschedule with enough notice (often 48–72 hours); arriving very late can count as a cancellation. Black Crown Tattoo hasn’t published its own rules on TatSeek yet — call +27 63 793 0220 or message them to confirm before you pay.

Is the consultation free?

Many studios offer a free consultation, in person or by message; some charge a fee that comes off the tattoo. Ask when you first get in touch.

When will I see my design, and can I change it?

It varies: some artists send the design a few days before, many show it on the day and adjust it with you before the stencil goes on. You can always ask for changes before anything touches your skin.

Is a touch-up included?

Many studios touch up small healing gaps for free within a few months; after that, or for sun-faded work, touch-ups are usually paid. Ask before booking.

Is the studio licensed, and how do they keep things sterile?

Black Crown Tattoo hasn’t listed licence or hygiene details on TatSeek. That doesn’t mean anything is wrong — ask about their licence, single-use needles and sterilisation; a good studio answers happily.

Do I need ID? What is the minimum age?

Expect to show a photo ID proving you are 18 or older. In the US some states allow 16–17-year-olds with a parent’s consent, others don’t allow it at all, and many studios only tattoo adults either way.

How do I pay, and should I tip?

Ask whether they take cards or cash only. Where tipping is customary (as in the US), 15–20% is typical; elsewhere it’s optional.
