Contour and Ink Liability Release Form

I do hereby agree to hold Erin Skipley | Contour and Ink, and the location where services are performed, free from any and all claims or suits for damage, for injuries or complications resulting from any beauty service. I understand that any skin revision procedure can result in minor scarring and/or loss of natural skin pigment.

I have been informed of the nature, risks, possible complications, and consequences of permanent skin pigmentation. I understand that there are known and unknown complications that can be associated with minor invasive skin treatments, including but not limited to: infection, scarring, inconsistent color, pigment migration, fanning, and fading. I understand that the actual color of the pigment may be modified slightly due to the tone and color of my skin. I fully understand that this is a tattoo process and therefore not an exact science, but an art. I request the permanent/semi-permanent skin pigmentation procedures and fully accept the permanence of the procedure as well as any complications and consequences of the said procedures.

I understand that tattoo inks, dyes, and pigments have not been approved by the Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the health consequences of using these products are unknown. Tattooing is permanent, and if I choose to have it removed, it may be expensive and leave scars. The nature and purpose of beauty services, the risks involved, and the possibility of complications have been fully explained to me. I understand that no guarantee of assurance has been given as to the results that may be obtained.

I understand that taking before and after photographs of the said procedures is a condition of such procedure. I grant permission for use of the photographs or electronic media as identified in any presentation of all kinds.

I am not under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and I am voluntarily submitting to be tattooed without duress or coercion.

I agree to immediately notify the artist in the event I feel lightheaded, dizzy, and/or faint before, during, or after the procedure.

I have received pre and post instructions and will strictly adhere to them. I understand that my failure to do so may jeopardize my chances for a successful procedure.

THE TATTOO INKS, DYES, AND PIGMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED BY THE FEDERAL FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION (FDA), AND THE HEALTH CONSEQUENCES OF USING THESE PRODUCTS ARE UNKNOWN. TATTOOING IS PERMANENT AND IF YOU CHOOSE TO HAVE IT REMOVED, IT MAY BE EXPENSIVE AND LEAVE SCARS.

I certify that I have read and understood the above paragraphs and have had this consent and procedure explained to my understanding. I accept FULL responsibility for the decision to receive this service.
