This will be my first tat­too. Do they hurt?
Yes, they do. But they have never killed any­one yet! It is a bear­able kind of pain: it’s uncom­fort­able, but noth­ing serious.

Do you reuse nee­dles?
No! All nee­dles I use are indi­vid­u­ally packed and ster­ilised. They are  dis­posed of after each tat­too. It is not only required by the health depart­ment, but is com­mon sense. You should never go to a tat­too artist who does otherwise.

How old do you have to be to get a tat­too?
You must be over 18 years of age to get a tat­too. Proof of age is required.

Can I bring in my own design?
Yes, you can. I do a lot of cus­tom work.

How long do tat­toos take to heal?
It nor­mally takes between 10 days and a fort­night to heal, if looked after properly.
