Preparation
Tattoo & Piercing Appointment Preparation:
-
Ask as many questions as you’d like! The only silly question is the one not asked! We want you comfortable and confident with your procedure.
-
Practice good hygiene! Shower, brush teeth, wear deodorant, etc. Cleanliness will not only benefit you, but your artist or piercer as well.
-
Wear appropriate attire. Think about the area you are getting tattooed or pierced and wear something that makes that area easily accessible while keeping you appropriately covered to your comfortability. Think about how tight the clothing will be in that now sensitive area, wear something loose. If you are getting tattooed it is not recommended to wear anything white or brand new, there is always a possibility of ink getting on it.
-
Eat and drink water before your appointment! Try to eat a full meal and drink plenty of water. A little sugar also goes a long way if you are prone to getting light-headed or passing out.
