    The studio problem

    Sound familiar?

    Inquiries sit in your DMs and go cold.

    A new piece request lands in your Instagram DMs at midnight, gets buried by morning, and the client books with the studio that replied first.

    No deposit means no-shows.

    You hold a half-day for a big back piece, the chair sits empty, and there's no deposit to cover the gap — every cancellation is money straight off the books.

    Artists' books aren't full and the waitlist is chaos.

    One artist is slammed while another has open chairs, and the waitlist lives in a notes app nobody checks. Filling cancellations is a guessing game.

    Reviews and follow-up are scattered.

    Healed-photo check-ins, touch-up reminders and review requests get done when you remember — which is never — so repeat work and word-of-mouth slip away.

    What changes

    One platform that books artists and secures deposits.

    Capture the consult

    Every consult and deposit, one clean form.

    Placement, size, reference images, budget and a deposit — captured in one form instead of pieced together from DMs. The chair only gets held once the deposit's down.

    Fill the chairs

    Booking & waitlists that fill the calendar.

    Let clients request a slot with the right artist online and reserve a real time — and when a cancellation opens up, the waitlist gets pinged automatically so chairs don't sit empty.

    The studio flow

    From first DM to regular in your chair.

    01 / Book the consult

    Consult forms and online booking capture placement, references and the deposit in one place — so the chair's only held once a client's serious.

    02 / Run the session

    Confirmations, reminders and aftercare instructions go out automatically, so the appointment runs smooth and the client leaves looked after.

    03 / Bring them back

    Touch-up reminders, rebooking nudges and review requests reach out at the right moment, turning a one-off piece into a regular in your chair.

    “The deposit form ended the no-shows — chairs only get held once the money's down. And the waitlist fills cancellations on its own while we tattoo. Our artists' books have never been fuller.”

    Questions

    Tattoo studio software questions, answered

    Can PandaDash capture tattoo consult details and deposits in one place?

    Yes. A single consult form collects placement, size, reference images, budget and the deposit — so you never hold a half-day for someone who hasn't committed. Every detail lives on the client's record before the needle touches skin.

    How does the waitlist work for filling cancellations at a tattoo studio?

    When a slot opens up, PandaDash automatically pings waitlisted clients so the chair gets filled instead of sitting empty. Artists' books stay as full as possible without anyone working the phones during a session.

    Does PandaDash handle healed-photo check-ins and touch-up reminders?

    It does. You set up the follow-up sequence once and PandaDash sends healed-photo check-ins and touch-up reminders automatically after each session — keeping the relationship alive and making it easy for a client to book their next piece.

    How much does PandaDash cost for a tattoo or piercing studio?

    It's $1 for full access for 30 days, then $97/month with every feature included on one sub-account — no tiers, no per-feature upsells. You can cancel anytime, so you're only ever out a dollar if it isn't a fit.

    Do I need separate tools for DMs, booking, and reviews at my studio?

    No — PandaDash replaces 10+ separate tools in one platform. Instagram DMs, texts and emails land in one unified inbox, online booking and waitlists fill the calendar, and review requests go out automatically after every session.

    Ready to fill the chairs without the chaos?
