What is your pricing?

My full day rate for the remainder of 2026 will be $800. This includes a maximum of 6 hours of tattoo time. Starting 2027 a price increase will take effect and my full day rate will be $1000.

Most of the tattoos I do are in the half day range of $400-500.

My customs minimum is $200. I price by piece and am happy to work with your budget.

If you are uncomfortable sitting more than 4-6 hours of tattoo time please let me know and I can adjust your quote for multiple sessions.

If you are unable to finish a tattoo during your appointment the full quoted price of the tattoo is due at your tattoo appointment, and a new quote will be given for the remaining work.


Where are you located?

My primary location is at my private studio in San Pedro, CA (30 mins south of Los Angeles). I also work part time in Orange County at my friend’s shop in Anaheim, CA.

Do you have any available tattoo designs?

Yes I draw flash often and post them on my Instagram @bons.pond and my available tattoo design account @bons.lagoon. I usually only tattoo each design once. If a design you like has been claimed you are welcome to request a sister design. These are customs based on the same concept (ex. pink moth with flowers) but have a new design customized for you!


Do you have any discounted tattoo designs?

I release a discount flash sheet once a month with designs ranging from $150-200.

If I have last minute appointment availability I may post on my instagram story and offer a special rate to fill the spot.

I have one sale a year my Winter Flash Special offering discounted pre-drawn designs I would still like to do but haven’t been claimed. These designs are typically 2+ years old.

What is your deposit policy?

All deposits are nonrefundable go towards the total cost of your tattoo. Deposits are typically $80-$150 depending on the size of the tattoo.

You may forfeit your deposit if:

  • You are more than 15 minutes late to your appointment with no communication.

  • You do not show up on the day of your appointment.

  • You request a major design change (ex. inquiring for a tattoo of a flower then requesting a tattoo of a teddy bear on the day of your appointment).

  • You need to reschedule more than once, or with less than a 48 hour notice.

  • Fail to provide a valid ID that states you are above 18 years old on the day of your appointment.

  • You arrive with bruises, sunburns, or wounds on the area you are to be tattooed on the day of your appointment.

If you forfeit your deposit a new deposit ($80-150) will be required to book a new appointment.


What forms of payment do you accept?

I accept Venmo and Zelle for deposits.

The day of your tattoo I accept payment in cash only. There is no ATM on site.


What if I need to reschedule?

One reschedule is allowed with a 48 hour minimum notice. I can only accommodate reschedules within the next 3 months of the original appointment.

Cancelling your appointment, not showing up on the day of your appointment, or having to reschedule more than once will forfeit your deposit. A new deposit will need to be resent to rebook.
