Q: HOW DO I CARE FOR MY NEW PIERCING?

Q: CAN I CHANGE MY JEWELRY BEFORE THE PIERCING IS FULLY HEALED?

A: If you suspect an infection, such as redness, swelling, or discharge, contact us immediately. Keep the area clean and avoid removing the jewelry until you’ve spoken to a professional.

A: Absolutely. We use sterile, single-use needles for every client, and our equipment is thoroughly sanitized between appointments. Our artists and piercers follow strict hygiene and safety protocols to ensure your well-being.
Q: CAN I GET A TATTOO OR PIERCING IF I’M PREGNANT?
A: We recommend waiting until after pregnancy to get a tattoo or piercing. Hormonal changes and potential complications can make the process riskier during pregnancy.
Q: DO YOU TATTOO OR PIERCE MINORS?
A: We do not tattoo anyone under the age of 18 without parental consent. For piercings, we require parental consent and presence for minors under 16. ID verification is required for both the minor and the parent/guardian.
Q: WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I HAVE A MEDICAL CONDITION?
A: If you have any medical conditions, such as diabetes, heart issues, or are taking blood-thinning medications, please consult your doctor before getting a tattoo or piercing. Inform our staff so we can take any necessary precautions.

Eu amei tudo, ambiente limpo confortável, onde fiquei super a vontade para fazer minha tatuagem. Obrigada Anderson pela paciência, atenção aos detalhes e o profissionalismo. Super recomendo Mary Maxwell19/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came from Alaska for a bucket list adventure. One of the things I wanted was a Celtic dragon tattoo done HERE! I walked in and had an amazing first impression! So welcoming and very fun atmosphere. My artist was Lulli and she was so great! Asked so many questions about where I wanted it and why. Went over placement with me. Very professional and VERY good artist. Seemed like everyone getting inked was loving life and all the artists were also. Each totally into what they were doing. Several artists came over to Lulli’s station asking what we were doing and all exclaimed LOVE IT! I wanted to get another one but my time in Dublin was very short. If they read this, my utmost gratitude for everything! The person who checked me in, the person who offered me water, the atmosphere and especially my artist. The whole thing was a great experience! 1,000% recommend this place. All the pieces I got to see were incredible! Mary From Alaska Loretta Young09/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional; as soon as you walk through the door you’re greeted and assisted with your request. My request was not too complicated, and the tattoo artist, Lucas, came up with a design pretty quickly, and we were on our way. He did a great job, and I am completely satisfied with my new tattoo! Kayce VanTassell09/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bruno was my hero this last night on vacation in Dublin! He went out of his way after hours to ensure I got this very sentimental piece done before I left to go home. He absolutely nailed it! Simple, but exactly what I wanted. Thank you again Bruno! ♥️
