WHAT SHOULD I DO BEFORE MY TATTOO?
Make sure you eat within 4 hours of your appointment starting. Your skin (where you are getting tattooed) should be clean and free of any fake tan or make up. Wear comfortable clothes that give access to the area being tattooed. Bring sugary snacks to keep you going. If you want to use numbing cream please discuss this with the artist when you book in.

We are based on the Lisburn Road in Belfast, facing City Hospital and one door up from Nico's Pizzeria. We have a black front door with a large 56 in the window above the door.
There is parking available on side streets, we are in based in a busy university area so please allow plenty of time to get parked.

COVID
Restrictions has eased in Northern Ireland, it is your personal choice to wear a mask. Our artists will wear a mask if you would prefer. Tattooing is close contact for a prolonged period and we want to keep our artists and customers as safe as possible. Please make sure you frequently sanatise your hands and carry out regular lateral flow tests if possible.
HOW DO I LOOK AFTER MY TATTOO?
The artist will run through aftercare with you at the end of the appointment. Our general guidance would be to remove the clingfilm after 2 hours and give it a warm soapy wash, pat it dry then apply a minimal amount of cream (our artists recommend cocoa butter).
No swimming, baths, saunas, sunbeds, direct sunlight or fake tan for two weeks.
