These policies exist to protect myself as an independent and self-employed artist in the modern world and to honor both my own time, and yours. If there are any questions left unanswered by the text below, please email me (Ash Beyer) at heyashbey@gmail.com before submitting the form.


Flash: Check my website (ashbeyer.com) and instagram (@toothyinhale) for available flash designs. I try not to repeat flash, but if you request a variation, I may design something for you if i feel like it’s a worthwhile project.


Custom: I will likely decline most custom requests, but send it anyway if you think I may not. Keep your requests simple (ex. “Smol chicago dog on bicep, more silly than naughty on the silly-naughty scale"). Please do your best to NOT send me other tattoos as a reference. I like to come up with the way something looks in my own style, and it's easy to be influenced by the wonderful work of others. If there's an artist you really like that somehow feels similar to what has made you contact me vs. them for an appointment, maybe share that with me. Otherwise it gets really close to asking me to copy another artist's work, and it feels icky for all three of us in the end. Don’t do it! 

My appointment minimum is €100. My quotes are based on the time it takes to create designs, set up the workspace, buy materials, pay studio rent, and the essential value of my work. If I say a drawing is worth some amount, it is worth some amount.

Unless we discuss otherwise, our appointment is for one tattoo.


There is a non-refundable €50 deposit to book your appointment that goes toward the total cost of the tattoo. This can be sent by bank transfer, MoneyBeam or Wise (heyashbey@gmail.com). On the day of the appointment, I prefer cash, but will accept electronic payments.

If you need to reschedule or cancel, let me know as soon as possible. My income streams are delicately intertwined and always changing, and your contribution to my self sufficiency is cool and important! If you request to reschedule within 1 week of your appointment, I will require a new deposit. The new deposit does not go toward the total cost of the tattoo. No-shows will be blacklisted.


If I have already begun to design your custom tattoo, the deposit is non-refundable regardless of circumstance. If you change your mind mid-through, switching to a new custom idea or to a standard flash piece, I will require an additional fee to compensate for the time I put into the first design.

Every design comes with a free touchup within the first year.

About a week before your scheduled tattoo, start moisturizing the area regularly, use sunscreen and stay hydrated. We all know bender skin is way gnarlier and tired than vacation skin.

Make sure to eat a proper meal before your appointment.

Try to arrive freshly bathed with the area shaved.

Please follow all modern and Covid-related safety precautions and preventative measures regarding illness, stay aware of how you're feeling and do not come in if feeling ill. If in doubt, reach out.

Please be on time! Your appointment will be cancelled after not arriving within 30 minutes of your appointment. I’m punctual, and I like punctual people.
Punctual people get paid and punctual people get tattoos!

Please bring a photo ID and wear comfortable, loose-ish clothing that allows for the body part to be exposed and tattooed comfortably. Smart layers.

Normally, yes to friends coming along.. but you never really know how someone's bud is going to behave. Let’s say case-by-case. Let me know ahead of time, be flexible and it will work out.
