Welcome to Life Is A Trash Can. These Terms & Conditions govern your use of our website www.lifeisatrashcan.uk, your booking of tattoo services, and any purchases made through our website, including gift vouchers.
By using our website, booking an appointment, or purchasing goods or vouchers, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our website.
1. Booking Tattoo Appointments
Tattoo appointments are arranged via email using the booking form on our website.
All bookings require a non-refundable deposit, typically between £50–£100, which is deducted from the final cost of your tattoo.
Your appointment is not confirmed until your deposit has been received and we have emailed you confirmation.
Deposit amounts may vary depending on the size, duration, or custom nature of the tattoo.
Deposits are non-transferable unless agreed in writing.
2. Appointment Changes & Cancellations
To reschedule or cancel an appointment, please provide at least 72 hours’ notice.
Failure to give sufficient notice may result in the loss of your deposit.
No-shows or same-day cancellations will automatically forfeit your deposit.
In cases of genuine emergency, please contact us as soon as possible—we may offer a one-time reschedule at our discretion.
3. Eligibility for Tattoo Services
You must be 18 or older to be tattooed. Valid government-issued ID is required.
We reserve the right to refuse service for any reason, including (but not limited to) health concerns, abusive behaviour, or intoxication.
Please notify us in advance of any medical conditions, skin sensitivities, or allergies that may affect your tattoo session.
4. Tattoo Design & Custom Work
All tattoo designs are the intellectual property of Life Is A Trash Can and may not be reproduced or reused without permission.
If you request a custom design or provide your own reference, you confirm you have the right to use that image and that it doesn’t infringe on copyright.
We do not guarantee exact copies of reference images—each tattoo is an original interpretation.
5. Gift Vouchers
Gift vouchers are available for purchase via our website or in person.
Vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.
Vouchers are non-refundable, not redeemable for cash, and non-transferable.
Vouchers can be used toward tattoos or merchandise.
Lost or stolen vouchers will not be replaced—please treat them like cash.
6. Online Store
By placing an order, you agree to provide accurate billing, shipping, and contact information.
Orders will be processed within 3-7 business days.
Delivery times may vary based on location and shipping method.
If an item is lost or damaged in transit, please contact us within 7 days of delivery.
You have 14 days from the date of delivery to request a return or refund, provided the item is unused and in original packaging (exceptions apply to custom or hygiene-sensitive items).
7. Pricing & Payment
All prices are listed in GBP (£).
Prices for tattoos are estimated during the booking process and final costs may vary based on time and complexity.
Deposits are payable via bank transfer and the details are provided over email after your initial booking form request.
Online product and voucher payments are processed securely via Stripe.
