Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book an appointment with Ms. London?
Send an email to booking.ms.londontattoos@gmail.com and be sure to include as much information about your tattoo idea as possible, such as size (in inches), body placement, and color/black and grey preferences.
You can also visit fallenheroestattoo.com and complete their online booking form.
Can I book an appointment over the phone, in the shop, or through DMs?
Yes and no. You can call the studio to book an appointment if you have a clear idea of what you're looking for and the front desk is able to estimate the amount of time needed to complete your tattoo. If you stop by the studio without an appointment, Ms. London may not be able to speak with you immediately, so it is recommended that you schedule a consultation appointment so that she can give you and your idea the undivided attention you deserve.
Ms. London does NOT answer her DMs or book appointments via social media. Please reach out via email for the quickest response.
How much will my tattoo cost?
Pricing is based on how much time Ms. London will need to complete the tattoo, which varies by size, level of detail, and the amount of color used. Roughly, she works at a rate of $180-200 per hour, but this is not a guarantee of the final cost. When you book the appointment, she or her assistant will be able to give you an estimate of the price, which may be a flat rate (regardless of the time taken) or a range that will be finalized once the tattoo is completed. For example, a small tattoo may cost $100, while a larger piece may be quoted as $400-600 and cost anywhere in that range depending on how much time is needed to complete it.
What is the difference between a concept consultation and a design consultation?
A concept consultation allows you to discuss your tattoo idea with Ms. London in person so that she can take notes to assist her in the design process. A design consultation allows you to see the design Ms. London has created for you. You will still have the opportunity to make adjustments before the tattoo appointment. This can be done in person or via email.
Is a consultation required?
No, consultations are not required. Ms. London can create your design based on the information provided in the booking form. However, we often recommend consultations if you are looking for a coverup, a full sleeve, or a complex design with many parts to be included. If you do not request one and we feel one is needed, we will suggest it.
What is included in my tattoo session?
The tattoo session includes the completion of consent paperwork, final design adjustments, stenciling and placement of the stencil to the skin, completion of the tattoo, any needed breaks, aftercare instructions, and bandaging of the tattoo. A short lunch break will also be included in full-day sessions. Ms. London will work as quickly as possible while maintaining a high standard of quality. We encourage clients to bring water, snacks, headphones, or any other items that can help pass the time and be as comfortable as possible.
What if I need to book more than one session?
We can do that! We can book multiple sessions for you, as long as the requested dates allow for ample healing time in between sessions (generally 2-3 weeks). Your booking fee will be applied to the final session.
Why do I have to pay a booking fee?
A booking fee secures your appointment with Ms. London and helps cover the cost of her time in designing your tattoo. Like most tattoo artists, she completes many of her designs on her personal time. Booking fees are required for all clients and are nonrefundable. No exceptions.
When will I see my design?
Unless a design consultation is requested, you will see your design on the day of your appointment. You will still have the opportunity to make adjustments to the design if necessary, which is also included in the session.
What if I want to change the design before my appointment?
Please reach out to her assistant via the booking email as soon as possible. If the new design request can be completed in the same time frame already booked, then the change can be made. If the new design will be less time, then you will still be responsible for the full balance of the session. If the new design will be more time, then you will be responsible for booking an additional session.
What if I have to change or cancel my appointment?
Please reach out to her assistant via the booking email or call the studio as soon as possible. If notice is given more than 72 hours prior to the appointment, there is a possibility of rescheduling the appointment, depending on availability. If notice is given less than 72 hours prior to the appointment, this counts as a last-minute cancellation and may result in the loss of your booking fee and/or the opportunity to schedule future appointments.
