PMU MODEL CALL POLICY

PMU model call services are offered at a discounted rate in exchange for participation in content creation, education, and training purposes. By booking a model call appointment, the client agrees to all terms outlined below.

Purpose of Model Call

Model call appointments are discounted because they are used for:

  • Filming the full procedure process

  • Before & after photography

  • Full-face photos and videos

  • Use of content for social media, website, portfolio, advertising, and educational materials

By booking, the client grants full, unrestricted consent for the use of images and videos without limitation.

Eligibility & Client Responsibilities

  • Client must be 18 years or older.

  • Client must have healthy skin suitable for PMU.

  • Prior PMU, tattoos, or residual pigment must be disclosed and approved.

  • Client agrees to artist-selected shapes, styles, and techniques.

  • Client must be comfortable being filmed and photographed throughout the appointment.

  • Client agrees to arrive on time and prepared for filming.

The artist reserves the right to refuse or discontinue service if requirements are not met.

Rescheduling & Cancellations

  • Model call appointments are non-transferable.

  • One reschedule may be allowed with at least 24 hours’ notice.

  • Late arrivals may result in cancellation without refund due to filming and scheduling requirements.

  • Cancellations or no-shows within 24 hours of your appointment will result in:

    • A 50% charge of the remaining balance (e.g., if your final balance is $100 after deposit, you will be charged $50),

    • Forfeiture of your deposit,

    • A new deposit will be required to rebook .

  • If you reschedule within 24 hours, the 50% fee will still apply, but your original deposit may be credited toward the new appointment.

  • No-shows are treated as late cancellations and will incur the same charges.

  • Repeated no-shows or late cancellations may require full prepayment for future bookings.

  • Clients who fail to disclose any medical conditions, current medications, use of specific skincare (such as, Retinol) or recent caffeine intake prior to their appointment — and as a result must reschedule or cancel at the time of the appointment — will be charged 50% of the service total as an inconvenience fee. To avoid this situation from occurring, please let us know of anything you’re unsure of.

Pricing & Payment

  • Model call pricing is significantly discounted from standard service rates.

  • The discount reflects the exchange of services for filming, photography, and educational use.

  • No additional discounts or promotions apply.

  • A non-refundable deposit is required to secure the appointment with the remaining balance due on the day of the appointment.

  • Touch-ups are NOT included in the model call price.

  • Model call clients are eligible for discounted touch-up pricing.

  • Final healed results cannot be accurately assessed without a touch-up session.

  • Results vary based on skin type, lifestyle, healing response, and aftercare compliance.
