Wyld Chyld Terms & Conditions
Effective Date: December, 2025
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern all bookings, tattoo services, deposits, payments, gift cards, financing selections, and studio interactions offered by Wyld Chyld Tattoos (“Wyld Chyld,” “we,” “us,” “our”).
These Terms are intended to benefit and protect Wyld Chyld and all covered parties, including the shop entity and its owners, managers, employees, tattoo artists, guest artists, apprentices, and all independent contractors and other contractors who provide services through Wyld Chyld (collectively, the “Wyld Chyld Parties”). By booking an appointment, submitting a deposit, purchasing a gift card, applying for financing at checkout, entering the studio for services, or receiving services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Acceptance of Terms and Related Documents
1.1 Agreement. You agree to these Terms as a condition of booking, purchasing, entering the studio for services, applying financing at checkout, and receiving any services. If you do not agree, do not book, purchase, enter, or receive services.
1.2 Other documents. Any intake form, consent form, release, aftercare acknowledgment, or other document you sign or accept supplements these Terms. If a direct conflict exists, the provision that is more protective of the Wyld Chyld Parties controls to the maximum extent permitted by law.
2. Definitions
2.1 Appointment means any scheduled tattoo session, consultation, or reserved service time.
2.2 Deposit means a booking payment used to reserve time and compensate for planning, preparation, and design work, including work performed before the Appointment.
2.3 Gift Card means any stored-value card or certificate sold by Wyld Chyld for future redemption.
2.4 Wyld Chyld Parties means Wyld Chyld Tattoos and all owners, employees, artists, guest artists, apprentices, contractors, independent contractors, agents, and representatives involved in providing services or operating the studio.
2.5 Project-Priced Piece means a tattoo priced as a defined project total (rather than only a time-based estimate), confirmed by the artist before tattooing begins.
3. Eligibility, Age, and Identification
3.1 Minimum age. Wyld Chyld does not tattoo anyone under 18 years of age. In New York, tattooing a person under 18 is prohibited under New York Penal Law § 260.21, including regardless of parental consent. New York State Department of Health+1
3.2 Identification. You must present a valid government-issued photo identification at the time of service. If you cannot present valid identification, Wyld Chyld may refuse service and treat the Appointment as a cancellation or no-show.
4. Appointments, Consultations, and Booking
4.1 Booking confirmation. Appointments are not confirmed unless and until Wyld Chyld receives required booking information and any required Deposit. Appointment dates and times are subject to artist availability and studio operations.
4.2 Consultations and discretion. Design details, placement, size, and color approach may be finalized during consultation or at the Appointment. Artists retain professional and creative discretion regarding feasibility, placement, and execution, and may decline requests for safety, quality, ethical, or operational reasons.
5. Quotes, Pricing, and Estimates
5.1 Quotes are rough estimates. Any quote provided before your Appointment is a rough estimate only and is not a binding price.
5.2 Final price. Final pricing is determined by the artist and confirmed before tattooing begins. Price may change based on factors including size, placement, body location, color versus black and grey, skin condition, design complexity, revisions, last-minute changes, and the time required for safe execution. This approach is consistent with how many established studios communicate deposit and pricing expectations publicly. BANG BANG+2FINE-STUDIO+2
6. Deposits
6.1 Purpose and application. Deposits reserve Appointment time and compensate for planning and design work, including work performed before the Appointment. Unless stated otherwise in writing, Deposits are applied toward the final service total.
6.2 Non-refundable. Deposits are non-refundable except where required by applicable law. This is consistent with common tattoo studio deposit policies. BANG BANG+2FINE-STUDIO+2
6.3 Transferability. Deposits may be non-transferable between artists and are subject to scheduling availability. Any exceptions must be approved in writing by Wyld Chyld.
7. Rescheduling, Cancellations, Late Arrivals, and No-Shows
7.1 Rescheduling. If you need to reschedule, you must contact Wyld Chyld as early as possible. Rescheduling is not guaranteed and depends on availability. Repeated reschedules may require an additional Deposit or may result in cancellation of the project.
7.2 Late arrivals. Late arrival may reduce session time. If you arrive too late to complete the session safely, the Appointment may be treated as a cancellation or no-show.
7.3 No-shows. If you do not appear for your Appointment, your Deposit is forfeited and a new Deposit is required to rebook.
