If you already have an idea for your tattoo, or if you would like some guidance and inspiration, we are happy to talk you through the process. Based on your design, we will provide an estimated sitting time and price.

You can contact us here.

Due to the artist’s popularity, the current waiting time is approximately 1–7 months between initial booking and your first appointment. Should any cancellations arise, we may be able to offer you an earlier slot.

You will receive a reminder ahead of your appointment, and our team is always available should you have any questions.

To secure your appointment with your chosen artist, we require a non-refundable booking fee. This can be paid in studio by BACS transfer or cash only.

If you need to reschedule, your booking fee can be transferred to a new date provided we receive at least four weeks’ notice. The remaining balance is payable in cash on the day of your appointment.

Pain is subjective and varies from person to person. Most clients describe the sensation as a light scratching or prickling. Areas closer to bone may feel more intense due to vibration.

Tattoo placement also plays a role, as some areas of the body are more sensitive than others. While we can offer guidance based on experience, only you know your own pain threshold.

Our priority is always to ensure your experience is as comfortable and safe as possible.

The time required depends on the size, style, and complexity of your design. Larger or more detailed tattoos naturally take longer. During your consultation, we will advise how many sessions your tattoo is likely to require.

Proper aftercare between sessions is essential for healing, infection prevention, and achieving the best possible result. Your artist will explain the aftercare process in detail, but it is important that you follow these instructions carefully.

Typically, there is a healing period of 3–4 weeks between sessions.

Yes, we can cover most existing tattoos. A consultation is required so we can assess the piece in person. If a cover-up is not suitable, we also offer laser treatment to lighten or remove the tattoo in preparation for a new design.

Please note that cover-ups are priced differently to fresh skin.

Following the correct aftercare is essential to ensure proper healing and long-term quality. We will provide full aftercare guidance and you will leave with a clear plan to follow at home.

For health and safety reasons, we do not tattoo clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If this applies and we are informed, we reserve the right to refuse treatment, and the booking fee will be retained to cover loss of earnings.

We only pierce with a brand new, completely sterilized single-use needles. The reason we use needles is because it’s so much safer, more hygienic and causes far less skin trauma than using a reusable ear-piercing gun.

Yes, we will need to downsize the initial jewellery approximately 4 weeks after your piercing to help continue the healing process. We will discuss the time needed to downsize upon your piercing appointment, Each area of the body will need to be downsized at a different time.

A piercing can take up to a year to fully heal but each person is different and how quickly you heal depends on many variants. Making sure you stick to the aftercare regime will affect healing time too and can speed the healing time up significantly.

It’s tough one to answer, as there are a couple of things to consider when it comes to pain:

1. Pain is personal. Not everyone feels the same pain, or in the same places.  We can give you a guide based on what other people have said, or if we’ve experienced the same piercing, our perspective, but only you know your body and your pain threshold.
2. Not all piercings feel the same; the position of the piercing can make a difference, because some parts of your body are more sensitive than others.

The most important thing to remember is we do everything we can to make the process as quick and safe as possible. It's all over in a flash and before you know it you’ll be the proud owner of a new piercing.

Be prepared to expect some swelling after the piercing - it’s perfectly natural. You can take pain relief if it helps and don’t forget to follow our aftercare advice.  

Piercings rejections can sometimes happen. Rejection is more common in the following types of piercings: eyebrows, belly button surface piercings (nape, hip,)

The symptoms that your body is rejecting a piercing are 

• The jewellery has noticeably moved from its original place
• The amount of tissue between the entrance and exit holes gets thinner
• The entrance and exit holes increase in size
• The jewellery starts to hang or droop
• The skin between the entrance and exit holes are red or inflamed, calloused-looking or unusually hard, nearly transparent (you may see the jewellery through your skin)

If you are worried or unsure that your piercing is healing correctly we will book you in for a check up and advise how to go forward.
