Tattoo Design and Session Record
A free printable tattoo session record sheet — one card per tattoo with the design as agreed, a placement sketch, and every sitting with needles and inks used.
Download Free · no sign-up
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.

The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
What this sheet is for
Match a second sitting or a touch-up to the first, because the needle configuration, the ink brand and colour and the lot number are all written down against the date.
Who it is for
Tattoo artists, whether in a studio or working guest spots, who want one card per piece rather than a diary entry.
How to use it
- Fill in the client, artist and the checks your studio policy asks for at the consultation.
- Describe the design, placement and size as agreed, and sketch the placement in the grid.
- Add a row for each sitting: work done, needles or cartridges, inks with lot numbers, time on skin.
- Record the healed check and any touch-up on the same card.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One card per tattoo — the design as agreed at consultation, a space for the placement sketch, then every session logged with the needles and inks used, so a touch-up or a second sitting matches the first.
Your policy fills the blanks. Deposit amount, minimum age, ID and consent wording all come from your own studio policy and the rules where you work. The blanks below are for your figures and your checks; nothing here says what they have to be.
Write-on lines: Client · Contact · Artist · Consultation date · ID / age checked (per studio policy) · Consent form signed · Deposit taken · Medical / allergy notes on file
Design as agreed
Write-on lines: Description / subject · Style · Colour or black & grey · Placement · Approx. size · Reference / stencil ref. · Cover-up or existing work
Squared grid: Placement sketch
Sessions — one row per sitting, including touch-ups
Table, 4 rows: Date · Session · Work done · Needles / cartridges · Inks (brand, colour, lot) · Time · Healed check · Artist
Questions
Why are the ID, consent and deposit boxes blank rather than pre-worded?
Because the age you can tattoo, the ID you accept and the consent wording are set by the rules where you work and by your own studio, not by us. The blanks record that your checks were done.
Where does the aftercare go?
On the Tattoo Aftercare Handout Record, which logs which version of your handout the client was given. Keeping it separate keeps this card about the work itself.
