A Tuesday at a tattoo and piercing studio
The booking commitment through aftercare.
An ordinary Tuesday. Maya owns the studio and tattoos, Jordan is her second artist, and Emily pierces.
Illustrative day · Northside Studio
- 7:20 AM
A client books a session online.
The service asks for a deposit, so the time is held until they pay by card on the booking page. Then it’s confirmed.
Deposits & no-shows - 9:30 AM
The consent comes back, initialled and signed.
It opened from the link with no login, saved as they went, and took initials and a signature.
Forms & consent - 3:40 PM
Aftercare goes out.
With the routine enabled, send your saved aftercare when the visit completes, subject to contact consent and sending checks.

More moments from the day
- 7:21 AM
The confirmation page lists your consent.
The form is linked to the service, so the page they land on lists it with a link to fill it in.
Forms & consent - 10:00 AM
Maya reads it before the session.
She marks it approved; the reading is hers, not the software’s. Approval locks answer edits; later template changes can still affect older questions and labels.
Forms & consent - 1:00 PM
Someone walks in for a piercing.
Booked on the spot with Emily. The client record can come after.
Appointments & calendar - 3:30 PM
The finished piece, photographed.
Taken at the visit, straight to the client’s record, tagged with the area.
Media library - 3:35 PM
“Can we post this?”
Each photo shows what the client told your team about marketing use: given, declined or withdrawn. Your team records the answer; the client doesn’t sign it here.

And when someone doesn’t come, the deposit is forfeited if you’ve chosen to keep deposits on no-shows.

- Deposits & no-shows
Ask for a deposit online. Keep it when they don’t show.
Ask for a deposit on a particular service, paid by card straight after booking online. Your policy decides what happens if they cancel or don’t come.
Deposits & no-shows - Forms & consent
Paperwork before the visit.
Build your consent in the form builder, with initials, signatures and photo fields. Link it to a service, and its active required forms appear with the visit.
Forms & consent - Media library
Every photo in its place.
Photos of the finished work on the client’s record, tagged by area, with their answer about marketing use on each one.
Media library - Routines
Keep the care going between visits.
Write the aftercare on the service once. Enable the routine to send it after completion, subject to contact consent and sending checks.

Before you decide
Not available yet
There is no ready-made tattoo or piercing consent yet; you build yours in the form builder. EstheticSense doesn’t check a client’s age or ID, and a form can’t yet stop a booking. Deposits for appointments your team books come later.
