♦To a sober, friendly, calm and knowledgeable tattoo artist, who will guide them through their tattoo experience with confidence and assurance.

♦To be tattooed with a brand new, completely sterilized needle, which is immediately disposed of in a medical sharps container (or other safe manner) after use on the tattoo client alone.

♦To know that getting tattooed anywhere besides in a licensed tattoo studio is NEVER appropriate, and is extremely dangerous.

♦To be satisfied with the design they choose, and confident that their tattoo artist's abilities have resulted in a correctly drawn design.

If a tattoo client feels, at any time, that something is wrong with their design or the work that is being done on them, they have the right to stop the tattoo from going any further. If a tattoo client feels the need to stop a tattoo, they should consult the studio owner or manager immediately prior to leaving the studio.
