BOOK YOUR COSMETIC TATTOO
WITH HER VELVET HAND
Thank you for choosing Her Velvet Hand! Please review our instructions, policies and procedures prior to completing the booking process.
The booking process
- Available appointments will be indicated as brown ‘Select’ boxes - if there are no brown ‘Select’ boxes, the artist is fully booked and there is no availability until our bookings reopen.
- New appointments with Courtney Maguire are released on the third Saturday of every month at 10:00AM CT. If you are unable to book an appointment at this time, you may wait until the following month when more dates become available.
- TIP: Please set a calendar reminder for yourself if you are interested in booking an initial cosmetic tattoo session as we have very limited availability for new client appointment bookings.
- All appointments are booked on a first come, first serve basis and must be booked online. We do not offer waitlists for new clients and do not accept bookings over the phone or in person. We do not hold appointment spots.
- A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to secure your first cosmetic tattoo session booking.
- For existing Her Velvet Hand cosmetic tattoo clients interested in booking a Refresher appointment: You must email a clear photo of your current brows/lips with NO makeup to info@hervelvethand.com for pre-approval.
Please Note: A Color Refresher appointment cannot be performed any sooner than 12 months following the last procedure. This is to ensure the quality of your results and the integrity of your skin. Any existing work MUST be lightened a minimum of 65% or more in order to avoid oversaturation of color, overworking the skin and for your results to stay as aesthetically natural as possible.
PRE-APPOINTMENT AND POST-APPOINTMENT CARE
- Review our Policies & Care Instructions pages thoroughly before booking and prior to your appointment date. If you have any questions please contact us.
- Clients who have not followed these instructions will be sent home. A rescheduling fee will be added to the rescheduled appointment.
- If prior to your appointment you begin experiencing cold/flu-like symptoms, have been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, and/or have traveled outside of the country, please contact us immediately.
HOW TO BOOK WITH ARTISTS AT HER VELVET HAND
Here at Her Velvet Hand, your artist is just as unique as you.
When you book with us, you have the option to book with COURTNEY for Cosmetic Tattoo sessions or with ERICA for NON Cosmetic Tattoo sessions. You MUST book with the individual artist with whom you would like to work.
If you do not see your preferred artist on the calendar, this means that their books are closed until they reopen the following month. You will need to return and book at a later time. Please do not book with another artist as sessions are not transferable.

COSMETIC TATTOO POLICIES & PROCEDURES
Deposits
A 50% Deposit is required in order to book and confirm your cosmetic tattoo appointment. Your deposit signifies your commitment to your appointment. Your deposit will go towards the total cost of the service you have booked for. The deposit is non-refundable. If you decide to cancel your appointment, your deposit will be lost.
Rescheduling
If you wish to reschedule your cosmetic tattoo appointment, we require 4 days notice in order to reschedule your appointment. A $75 reschedule fee will be applied after 4 days. You may reschedule your appointment ONE time before the deposit will be forfeited.
Same Day Cancellations
If you call to reschedule or cancel your cosmetic tattoo appointment on the day of, your deposit will be forfeited and you will be required to put down a new deposit to secure a future appointment.
No Shows
Remembering and respecting the appointment time is your responsibility. If you do not show up to your appointment and no notice is given, you will be charged 100% of the appointment. This is true for all appointments at Her Velvet Hand. All services are subject to increase in price at any time. You will pay accordingly to the amount the procedure is when booked.
Arriving late
I understand that things can happen but unfortunately, if you show up more than 20 minutes late to your appointment, your appointment may be canceled and the deposit will be forfeited. If you are going to be late or cannot make your appointment due to unforeseen circumstances, please contact us as soon as possible via email or DM. You may also be required to rebook and pay a new deposit if you wish to continue with your procedure after arriving late or providing a short notice cancellation.
Previous Cosmetic Tattoo work
If you have previous eyebrows tattooed, PLEASE email (inset email) a clear photo of your brows and schedule a in person consultation via our booking app. You MUST get an approval BEFORE booking an appointment. If you fail to do so, we will refuse service and your deposit will be forfeited because not all previous tattoo work from other artists can be fixed or covered.
New Guests
All new guests will be considered as a new set of brows, even with previous tattoo work. Please book accordingly.
Touchups
Are not included and will be a separate fee that ranges depending on how long after the last session is booked. Second session prices are valid 8-10 weeks after your first session only. Additional charges will apply if you book beyond this frame.
All touch ups, including Annual refresher appointments must be booked in person or via email at info@hervelvethand.com.
*Please note that touch up prices are for regular guests that have already had their first 2 procedures with one of our artists.
Consultations
Consultations are a great way to discuss in-person your cosmetic tattoo goals. Prior to any tattooing procedure, we will have an initial consultation to understand your goals and determine which solution is right for you. A 30-minute consultation is $50 and will be applied to the cost of your procedure. Should you decide not to move forward, the consultation fee is not refundable.
Results
Realistic expectations are a priority here at Her Velvet Hand. Additional touch ups may be required to achieve desired results- because there are so many variables to cosmetic tattoos and healing that we cannot control. While we typically have beautiful results and happy guests, we cannot guarantee this procedure totally replaces your makeup or can be completed after 2 sessions. We also cannot guarantee how long this will last on you. Please read all our info section prior to booking. All services provided are non- refundable.
Your results are extremely dependent on how one heals and will vary with each individual guest such as: skin, blood type, lifestyle, existing hair, bone structure, any medications taken and aftercare. Specific results or color requests for tattoos are not guaranteed (especially on those with dark or cool-toned lips, problematic skin or when covering up an old tattoo.) Everyone heals and accepts the pigment differently. We provide the same service for every client but retention is dependent on your skin and lifestyle.
Right to Procedure Refusal
We reserve the right to refuse performing any services. If we feel that you are too indecisive, impulsive about your tattoo, or we deem you as unfit, the procedure will be canceled. Another deposit fee will be required if you would like to book again.
Age Requirement
Per Texas Law, you must be 18 years or older to receive a cosmetic tattoo.
