Piercing and Tattoo FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does getting a piercing hurt?
Pain varies by placement and individual tolerance. Most describe it as a quick pinch. Our piercers ensure it’s swift and professional.
What jewellery do you use?
We only use implant-grade titanium, which is hypoallergenic and promotes safe healing.
Can I swim after a piercing?
It’s best to avoid swimming pools, hot tubs, saunas and open water during healing to prevent infection.
Do you use piercing guns?
No. Never. We use single-use sterile needles for all piercings — safer, cleaner, and less traumatic.
Can I get pierced while pregnant?
We will not pierce or tattoo you if you are pregnant or breast feeding. We highly advise against getting pierced or tattooed during pregnancy due to elevated infection risk and slower healing.
How do I care for my new tattoo?
Keep it clean, moisturized, and out of direct sunlight. Avoid swimming for 2-3 weeks. We’ll provide full aftercare instructions.
Do tattoos fade?
Tattoos naturally fade over time, but proper aftercare and sun protection can keep them looking sharp for years.
Can I bring my own tattoo design?
Yes! We welcome your ideas and our artists can adapt or refine them into something custom just for you.
Do you tattoo under 18s?
No. The Tattooing of Minors act 1969, UK law prohibits tattooing anyone under 18, even with parental consent.
How much does a tattoo cost?
Prices depend on size, detail, and placement. We offer consultations via our consultation form or WhatsApp to give you an accurate quote.
