Frequently asked questions

Deposit
Do I need to make a deposit for a tattoo appointment?

To confirm your appointment, we require a deposit of €100. This will be deducted from the total amount at checkout. We ask for a deposit to confirm your appointment.

If I have paid the deposit, can I still cancel or reschedule my appointment?

You can reschedule or cancel your appointment up to 72 hours before the start of your appointment while retaining your deposit.

Why do I need to make a deposit?

 All our artists are self-employed. If you don't show up for your appointment, they often cannot fill the slot anymore. The deposit compensates for the artist's lost time.

Inclusivity
Do you have a separate room for piercings?

Yes, you can get your piercing done in complete privacy with us. We automatically close this room for intimate piercings, but feel free to request this for other piercings due to religious reasons or simply because you prefer it!

Kan ik vragen om een vrouwelijke of mannelijke piercing artiest? 
Bij ons zijn alleen vrouwen werkzaam als piercer. Mocht je graag een mannelijke piercer willen, helpen we je graag met aanbevelingen.
Are you a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community?

 Absolutely, everyone is welcome here. Additionally, our consent forms are adapted to these norms. For example, you can indicate which pronoun you wish to be addressed by during your appointment.

Is the studio wheelchair accessible?

Our door opening is 95 cm wide. Depending on the type of wheelchair and your mobility, our toilet is accessible. Please send us an email, and we will be happy to assist you! We can provide video material and answer your questions.

Do you have a gender-neutral toilet?

 Yes, our toilet is gender-neutral.

What is the maximum weight limit for your treatment tables?

Our treatment tables support up to 150 kg. If you have concerns about the weight limits of our treatment tables, please send us an email. We are very happy to think along with you.

The sizes in this guide are based on fully healed piercings and serve as a general guideline. Your ideal size may vary based on skin thickness, placement, and healing process. When a piercing is first done, longer bars (posts) are used to accommodate swelling. After 2 to 3 months, depending on the piercing location, the bar can often be shortened.

Note: The piercing is not fully healed yet after 2 to 3 months. Doubting? Book a Fitting Room Session in our studio for expert advice!

Additional information about piercings.
Do you provide piercing services for children?

We do pierce children, provided they can give verbal consent themselves. We don’t use piercing guns in our studio, also not for children. We offer extended appointments when piercing children. We recommend booking an appointment online for children.

Is a piercing gun used?

We don’t use piercing guns in our studio, because they create more trauma and offer less precision. Piercing guns are also not suitable for cartilage piercings.

Any tips for my piercing appointment?

Make sure you have eaten and drunk well before your appointment. If you'd like, you can bring someone along to your piercing appointment. If you're feeling nervous, let the piercer know, and they will help you feel more at ease. Every body reacts differently: some people experience no discomfort during the piercing, while others do. If you don't feel well after the piercing, always inform the piercer. It's normal to feel a bit faint due to nerves or the sensation of the piercing. Quick sugars, like dextrose or apple juice, can often help with this feeling, and we always have these available in our studio. Our piercers are trained to handle this and will take the time until you feel completely yourself again!

For piercings that are covered by clothing, such as a navel piercing, we recommend not wearing tight clothing so that the piercing is not irritated or uncomfortable.

What material is used for piercings?

We use ASTM F-136 certified implant-grade titanium or 14K/18K gold, as advised by the Dutch Health Department. There is no nickel in our jewelry, but if you're allergic to specific components, we have test reports available that show all the components of our piercing jewelry.

What is the minimum age for a piercing?

For non-intimate piercings, the minimum age is 16, and for intimate piercings, it is 18. if you’re under 16, a legal guardian must be present

I got my piercing done at another shop, but I need assistance.

That is no problem. even if you had your piercing done at another shop, we're happy to assist with any issues or concerns you have. just stop by our studio, and we'll take a look!

Additional information about tattoos
Tattoos made exclusively with white ink.

At our studio, we do not create tattoos using only white ink. While the tattoo may initially appear white, it tends to develop a yellowish hue over time. Additionally, entirely white tattoos often fade almost completely. However, we do use white ink for adding details to our tattoos. 

Why are tattoos on hands, inside fingers, the side of the foot, and toes not reccomended?

We discourage tattoos on fingers and hands due to the higher risk of faster fading and less favorable healing in these areas. Because your hands are more exposed to sunlight and constant movement, the likelihood of fading is greater, especially on the sides and inside of the fingers and hands. Similarly, tattoos on the side of your foot and toes may experience quicker fading or less effective ink adherence. This doesn't mean that we won't perform these tattoos or find them aesthetically pleasing, but we do advise careful consideration before making a decision.  

Any tips for my tattoo appointment?

Make sure you've eaten and drunk enough before your appointment. It's important to stay hydrated. You can also bring something tasty to snack on if you need a break. We always have drinks available in our studio, such as coffee, tea, or something refreshing. Our floor managers will always offer this to you.

It's also a good idea to wear comfortable clothing, especially for a long session. We recommend wearing dark clothes, as tattoo ink can leave stubborn stains on white clothing.

During a long session, it can be nice to watch a series on your phone or listen to your own music. Feel free to bring earbuds or headphones. You are welcome to put them on to make your appointment as comfortable as possible!

Are touch-ups included?

It can happen that some lines of your tattoo become lighter than others after the healing process. This is normal and can often be corrected with a touch-up. If you experience this, you can request a free touch-up within 3 months of getting your tattoo. Contact us to schedule an appointment.

What is the minimum age for a tattoo?

The minimum age to get a tattoo without a legal guardian present is 18. For those aged 16 to 18 a legal guardian must be present. We do not preform tattoos on visible areas for individuals under 18.
