Booking with Jill.

Books opening summer.

jillian dawn │@jdawn.tattoo


Please respect my boundaries and do not try and consult me on your ideas when my books are closed (not taking appointments). While I appreciate the interest, I have a very full schedule with clients who need my attention prior to accepting new ones.


- When my books open, on my instagram page, a link to my booking form will be made visible to submit a request to get an appointment with me. (link can also be accessed here on the correct day/time).

-This link is required to be filled out to be considered for an appointment - I do not take tattoo submissions via email or DMs.

-I cannot guarantee you will get an appointment if you submit a request, I am one person and can only take on as many projects as I can handle at a time.

-Submissions/appointments are chosen based on my own interest, they are not chronological.

-I do not offer a waitlist or cancelation list, last minute cancelations are posted on my instagram, and then its first come first serve.

-Ongoing projects and projects that are more in line with my style will take priority.

-Filling out the form correctly and with enough detail for me to follow, will take priority. Refrain from just writing “bird”, “flower”, “animal” - expand on these ideas, what type of bird, what type of flower, be clear and concise.

*(this isn’t to say I won’t tattoo these, they are just less likely to be chosen).

**Please note I do not Tattoo ribs, ears, behind the ears, fingers, and sides/bottom of feet.**

  • You must be 18 years of age to get tattooed, and a valid ID must be presented at the time of your appointment - I do not accept parental consent.

  • I work Tuesday-Friday 10am-3pm, what you see on my calendar is whats only available.

  • do not send me your deposit till you I send you access to my calendar, do not send me photos of your tattoo ideas until I respond.

  • I charge $160/hour plus taxes, you can pay via e-transfer or cash. I do take debit/credit but there is an extra 3.4% charge.

  • If I approve your tattoo request, you will be provided with a link of an appropriate time slot for your piece, you will be able to see my availability and book yourself in based on your own availability. You will be required to pay a $60 deposit to book.

  • if you wish to book for multiple tattoos or with a friend, please keep them all within the same form, please don’t double submit.

    Questions you will be asked on the booking form: name, phone number, email, idea, style (shading, outline, colour), size, placement and approx. budget.

Thank you so much for your interest and wanting to book with me. I truly love what I do and I wouldn’t be where I am today without the support of my followers and clients. I wish I had more time and energy to do more and be able to tattoo everyone, but I only take on what I can handle. I appreciate your support and taking the time to read this over, submit a request, and engaging with my content.
