What is the purpose of a waiver?

A waiver is an essential document that protects both the client and the tattoo studio. It ensures that every session is safe, transparent, and legally compliant.

Why waivers matter

Before starting a tattoo, every client must complete and sign a waiver. This confirms that they understand the process, agree to the terms, and provide consent for the tattoo to be performed.

In Wavrr, the entire process is digital — quick, secure, and automatically saved to each client’s profile.

A waiver ensures that:

  • The client gives informed consent before getting a tattoo.

  • The studio and artist meet legal and safety requirements.

  • All details and used products are digitally documented.

  • Both the studio and client receive a digital copy for their records.

Why it’s important

Having a signed waiver in place protects both parties in case of misunderstandings or medical issues, while also keeping the tattoo process fully transparent and compliant with health regulations.
