Touch-up Policy

A touch-up is when an artist will go back into a recently acquired tattoo and make small adjustments to a tattoo (such as inconsistent coloring, broken lines, etc.) that may be required after proper tattoo aftercare has been observed.  If required Living Art Studio offers one free touch-up appointment after the initial application of your tattoo with the exception of any tattoo done on the foot. LIVING ART STUDIO DOES NOT GUARANTEE FOOT TATTOOS!  When you need a touch-up on a foot tattoo you will have to pay for it every time.  We will not guarantee them because we know they do not age very well.  Touch-ups on all other tattoos will only be considered if the tattoo has been properly cared for according to the instructions given to you by Living Art Studio and only after the tattoo has had time to heal completely.  After the first free touch-up, all other touch-up appointments will be priced by our standard hourly rate.
