Can i be pierced with a ring straight away?
Due to there being so many risks and the longevity of the healing process, we choose to opt for a bar where we can to make the whole healing journey better for everyone involved.
Do you use freeze spray?
We do not offer freeze spray for our clients, however if you wish to use something like numbing cream beforehand you are more than welcome.
Do i need to bring ID?
Yes, ID is required for all piercings aged 16+. This needs to be a valid government approved ID such as a (provisional) driving licence, or a passport. We do not accept student cards. Any piercing for children between the ages of 10 - 15 must be accompanied by a parent
How do i look after my new piercing?
The healing journey is the most important part of your new piercing. To care for your piercing, we recommend using a sterile saline solution (sold in store) for your new piercing. With this, you simply spray it on your piercing 2-3 times a day, and leave it to soak in, and voila! Another very important thing to do is to come back for your downsize, as keeping a long bar in your piercing once the swelling has gone down can lead to irritation and sometimes even migration. Last, but certainly not least, DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PIERCING. Even though it is very tempting to twiddle and mess with the jewellery, all this creates is irritation, soreness, jewellery falling out, and sometimes infection.
Why don’t you use piercing guns?
A while ago, it was common practise to use piercing guns. We use modern techniques of using single use needles as they are more precise, cleaner, and less painful.
All our piercings are done using single use needles, and sterilised clamps and jewellery.
what jewellery do you use?
All jewellery we use is titanium, which is hypoallergenic and suitable for body piercing. We offer a range of attachments and rings to choose from which are all titanium too.
Do i need to book?
No pre-booking for piercings are necessary - all piercing slots are operated by a walk in system. You are always welcome to call or message beforehand to get an idea on waiting times if needed.
Do you sell jewellery?
We do yes! All of our jewellery is available to purchase, and to be fitted for no extra cost. We are also happy to custom order any jewellery that you have your eye on too!
