Touch-up & Warranty Policy

At Bosphorus Ink, the quality of your tattoo is our priority. Our touch-up policy depends on the cause of the issue.

Issues Caused by Bosphorus Ink

If an issue results from an application error on our part (colour/shading not holding, line irregularities, etc.), the touch-up is always free of charge, with no time limit.

Issues Caused by the Client (Insufficient Aftercare, Fading)

For fading or similar issues resulting from aftercare not being followed as instructed:

• Touch-ups requested within the year the tattoo was done — regardless of timing, including within the first 3 months — are charged 25% of the tattoo's price.
• For touch-ups requested in the years following the year the tattoo was done (year 2 and beyond), no fixed rate applies — our studio assesses the tattoo's current condition and offers a personalised quote.

Why Aftercare Matters

How well your tattoo ages largely depends on the first 30 days of aftercare. See our Tattoo Aftercare Guide for full instructions.

For a touch-up request, reach us on WhatsApp with a photo of your tattoo and we will assess it together. For booking terms, see our Deposit & Cancellation Policy.
