Terms of Service

1. About these terms

These terms apply to booking requests made through The Fox Den Amsterdam and to appointments with the artists working at our studio. The Fox Den Amsterdam is a trade name of L&R Art and Media V.O.F. (KvK 93540728), Nieuwe Nieuwstraat 16, 1012 NH Amsterdam, the Netherlands. By sending a booking request or booking an appointment, you agree to these terms.

2. The studio and the artists

The Fox Den is a studio that facilitates independent tattoo artists: our resident artists and international guest artists. Your appointment is booked with the artist who makes your tattoo, and your agreement for the tattoo is with that artist. The Fox Den only facilitates: we receive booking requests, forward them to the artist, provide the studio and workspace and, in some cases, collect a booking fee or a deposit on the artist’s behalf. Each artist sets their own payment options, deposit, cancellation and touch-up policy.

3. Booking requests and appointments

We forward your booking request to the artist you choose, or to a suitable artist if you choose “No preference”. A booking request is not yet an appointment: your appointment is confirmed by your artist once you have agreed on the date, design and price, and paid a deposit or booking fee if one applies.
Walk-ins are sometimes possible but never guaranteed. Call us in advance to check same-day availability.

4. Age and ID

You must be 18 or older to get tattooed. Bring a valid photo ID; we ask for it whenever there is any doubt about your age. We make no exceptions.

5. Prices and payment

The minimum charge for a tattoo at The Fox Den is €100.
The final price depends on the artist, the size, placement and complexity of the design and the time needed.
Quotes are based on the details agreed with your artist. Changes to size, placement or design may change the price, and some tattoos need more than one session, at an additional cost.
Payment options are set by your artist. All our artists, resident and guest, handle their own payments, so please check with your artist how you can pay. For tattoos by our resident artist Foxy, you can pay by cash, debit card (PIN) or credit card.

6. Deposits, booking fees and cancellations

Deposits, rescheduling and cancellations are arranged with your artist. Each artist sets their own deposit, rescheduling and cancellation policy, so please check it with your artist when you book.
For tattoos by our resident artist Foxy: a deposit is required to confirm your appointment and is deducted from the final price of your tattoo. Deposits are non-refundable and cannot be transferred to another person or project. You can reschedule once if you let us know at least one week before your appointment; a second reschedule, or cancelling after rescheduling, means you lose your deposit.
In some cases The Fox Den collects a booking fee, or a deposit on behalf of your artist. We will always tell you which of the two applies before you pay.
A booking fee is charged by The Fox Den for handling your booking. It is not a deposit and is non-refundable.
A deposit collected by The Fox Den is received on behalf of your artist only. Your artist’s deposit, rescheduling and cancellation policy applies, and any refund of a deposit is the responsibility of your artist.
Need to change or cancel your appointment? Let your artist know as early as possible. You can also contact us and we will pass your message on.

7. Designs

Every tattoo is a custom design based on your inspiration. We do not copy other people’s tattoos or existing designs.
Designs and drawings remain the property of the artist who made them and may not be used by others without the artist’s permission.
Artists may decline a design, size or placement they consider unsuitable, for example when fine details will not hold up over time.

8. Your health and safety

Tell your artist about your health, medication, allergies or skin conditions before you are tattooed.
Come rested, well fed and sober. Do not drink alcohol or use drugs before your appointment.
Your artist may postpone or refuse a session if tattooing is not safe, for example if you are ill, sunburned or under the influence.
Because of GGD hygiene regulations and our insurance, only the client is allowed in the working area during tattooing. One companion may be present during the design and stencil stage if the artist agrees.

9. Aftercare and touch-ups

Follow the aftercare instructions you receive from your artist. The final result also depends on your skin and how well you look after your tattoo.
Touch-ups are arranged with your artist. Each artist has their own touch-up policy, so please check with your artist.
For tattoos by our resident artist Foxy: if a touch-up is advised, it can usually be scheduled within 6 months of your appointment. Touch-ups are not provided after improper aftercare, sun damage or other causes outside the artist’s control.

10. Photos

We may photograph your tattoo for our portfolio and social media, only with your permission. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your personal data.

11. Liability

Your appointment and your agreement for the tattoo are with the artist. The artist is responsible for the design, the tattoo itself, working safely and hygienically during your session, and the aftercare advice they give.
The Fox Den only facilitates: we handle booking requests, provide the studio and workspace and, in some cases, collect booking fees or deposits on behalf of artists. Our liability is limited to this facilitating role. We are not liable for the tattoo work itself, for agreements between you and your artist, or for refunds of deposits collected on an artist’s behalf.
Tattooing always carries some risk, such as allergic reactions, infection or differences in healing. Problems caused by incomplete health information, improper aftercare or not following your artist’s instructions are your own responsibility.
These limitations apply to the extent permitted by law and do not apply in case of intent or gross negligence.

12. Website content

All photos, designs and texts on this website belong to The Fox Den Amsterdam and its artists and may not be used without permission.

13. Applicable law

These terms are governed by Dutch law. Disputes will be submitted to the competent court in Amsterdam, without affecting the rights you have as a consumer under the law of your country.
