Can I get tattooed, pierced, or have removal if I’ve been drinking?
For all services — absolutely not.
Alcohol thins the blood, increases swelling/bleeding, and lowers pain tolerance.
We reserve the right to refuse service. -
Can I get a tattoo or piercing after tattoo removal?
Yes, once fully healed:
Tattoos: Cover-ups look MUCH cleaner after a faded or partially removed tattoo.
Piercings: As long as the removal area does not interfere anatomically.
Tattoo Removal: Many clients start removal specifically to prepare for a brand new tattoo.
