Legal Question in Consumer Law in Florida

My father wanted a tattoo so a group of us went to a tattoo parlor. My wife had wanted to get a tattoo and talked to an artist. She went separate from us and got talked into a tattoo (she was intoxicated), she paid for it but before they started to tattoo her I told her we were not staying, since my father scheduled his tattoo for the next day. The artist scheduled her for the next day. After having time to think about it she decided (soberly) that she did not want the tattoo for various reasons and called them to cancel the service. They said the would not refund her money since their policy states no refunds, no exchanges. We went to our bank and explained what happened and they gave us our money back, however the tattoo parlor has just filed and won an appeal of their own. My question is does Florida law allow for a refund of money if services are paid for ,but after a second thought, those services are not provided?

It depends on the policy of the service provider. If they had a no cancellation no refund policy, then, when you bopught it, you bought it. Soundfs like everyone was out having a good time. This is part of the price you paid. You reserved time and an artist and they may have foregone another customer.
