Your Safety Matters
We follow the highest industry standards so you can focus on how your new piercing looks, not how it feels to get it done.
Every surface is sanitized between clients. Our studio meets or exceeds all local health regulations for body modification.
Every needle is opened from a sealed package in front of you and disposed of immediately after use. Nothing is ever reused.
You'll leave with clear, written aftercare instructions and the contact info to reach us if you have questions during healing.
