COVID-19

Whilst we’ve been closed we have been busy making changes to the studio to ensure you have the safest possible visit. However there are a few things that I need to ask of you;

Firstly please only come to the studio if you have an appointment. We have had an intercom entry system fitted and you will need to press the buzzer to be admitted. If you do not have an appointment unfortunately we will be unable to let you in.

If you are awaiting Covid-19 test results, have been within 2 metres of an individual with Covid-19 symptoms or yourself have experienced symptoms within the past 14 days please get in touch to rearrange your appointment. Anyone visibly ill will be asked to go home

Any enquiries/bookings/deposits etc can be dealt with via my website, email or over the phone.

I would also ask that you try not to arrive too early for your appointment or there may be no-one available to let you in.

Also please try to come to the appointment alone, friends and relatives may be unable to come with you to your appointment. Minors getting pierced may bring with them 1 appropriate adult.

Can I return jewellery?

I cannot accept returns or exchanges on jewellery for hygiene & safety issues. Please only purchase jewellery online if you are 100% certain it is the correct style, size etc.

However all of my jewellery is covered against manufacturer defects, if there is an issue with any jewellery please get in touch & we can assist in getting this repaired for you. Any repairs outside the realm of manufacturer defects may incur charges.

Do I need to make an appointment?

Yes appointments are necessary for all services.

Appointments can be obtained by completing the online booking form.

Do I need to pay a booking fee?

Yes, due to having to limit my number of appointments, rising PPE costs & clients not cancelling appointments when they cannot attend I have had to introduce a booking fee. However please do not worry, it comes off your total on the day.

What is your cancellation policy?

If you cancel your booking regardless of notice given you will forfeit your booking fee. If you reschedule within 24 hours of your appointment you will forfeit your booking fee. If you are late to your appointment or do not bring appropriate I.D I may not be able to see you & you will forfeit your booking fee.

Do you use a piercing gun?

No, never!

How old do I have to be?

18+ with photo ID for all piercings
8+ with parental consent for lobe piercings.
14+ with parental consent for; lobes, basic cartilage & nostril piercings. (Other cartilage piercings may be performed at the piercers discretion).
16+ with parental consent for; all other ear piercings, eyebrows, septum’s & navels.
In order to receive a piercing under the age of 18 the piercee must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. Photo ID (passport, driving licence, citizen card) will need to be provided for the piercee and the parent/guardian. If for any reason your surnames differ we will need documentation showing why (i.e. name change/divorce) or some other legal documentation supporting guardianship.

Does it hurt?

It’s never as bad as expected! This is the single most uttered comment after getting pierced, the thought beforehand is much worse than the actual piercing. The piercing itself is over almost immediately, so even if you are worried we can assure you by the time you’ve taken a look in the mirror at your new piercing you’ll have forgotten all about it.

How much does it cost?

I hold a large selection of jewellery for you to choose from, ranging from basic implant grade titanium to solid gold! I also have the ability to custom order almost anything your heart desires, so is therefore difficult to give a set price for each piercing, it all depends on what you choose! Starting prices can be seen on my price list.

Can I bring my child/ren with me?

Unfortunately the only time we can allow children in the studio is when they themselves are getting pierced. My attention needs to be solely with you during the piercing so for that reason we cannot allow children in the studio.

Can I bring a friend with me?

Due to current restrictions you will need to attend the appointment alone with the exception of a parent/guardian accompanying a minor.

Can I photograph/film the procedure

I do ask that you refrain from any videos, if you wish to take photos please ask and I will allow for an opportunity if suitable.

Can I bring my own jewellery to be pierced with?

I can only pierce you with jewellery supplied by myself. I cannot verify the quality or origins of unknown jewellery and this could cause complications with your new piercing.

How long until I can change my jewellery?

Simply put, who knows? It’s hard to say for definite when you’re piercing will be ready for a downsize/jewellery change. I will give you an idea of healing times during your piercing and will recommend a check up appointment, this is where I can give you more information on your healing progress.

I’m pregnant/breastfeeding can I still get pierced?

Unfortunately it is not advisable to undergo any body art procedure during this period so we wouldn't be able to accommodate any piercings. It is best to let your body concentrate on the complex task at hand. If you are however having any issues with existing piercings during this period please do get in touch for advice.

Can I still breastfeed after having my nipples pierced?

You sure can, nipple piercings should have no impact on your ability to breastfeed, but we do advise you remove the jewellery beforehand!

I’m going on holiday, can I still get pierced?

This all depends on when the holiday is & the type of holiday. If you have a holiday coming up within the next 12 weeks please mention it during the booking process & I will advise further.

I’m going swimming/in a hot tub/on a spa day, can I still get pierced?

Again, this all depends, where, when & on the piercing. Please mention during the booking process and I will advise further.

I have an illness and/or am taking medication, can I still get pierced?

99% of the time yes! However there are a few exceptions, in these small instances we may need you to seek clarification from your GP.

If you have a rash, sunburn etc in the area you are looking to get pierced you will need to allow the area to fully heal before continuing.

I’ve been told I can’t get my ………… pierced is that true?

All piercings are anatomy dependant & all piercers perform piercings in different ways & have different skill sets. It is true that you may not be suitable for all piercings but an in person consultation with me can determine this for you.

I’ve got a bump! What shall I do?

Firstly, don't panic! Piercing bumps are generally harmless and there is usually a simple explanation behind them. Continue with the aftercare as advised and make arrangements to come and see me and I will assist.

Is it rejecting?

This is a possibility with all piercings however some are much more likely to than others (navels/eyebrows/etc), however it may just be irritated! An in person consult will be best to determine what’s happening.
