Should I get tattooed or pierced when I’m sick?

 If you have any kind of communicable disease or infection, we ask that you please stay home for our health and yours! Also for the well being of that beautiful tattoo or piercing you’ve been dreaming of. Any time you are sick or are nursing a wound, your body is sending white blood cells and antibodies to whatever it’s fighting. Your body will only have to work harder if you are healing a tattoo or piercing at the same time while your immune system is compromised. We also ask that you be considerate and not bring your illness into the shop and risk passing your germs onto our staff who may be healthy and needing to work. We would be more than happy to reschedule your appointment and you will not lose your deposit.
