Body Piercing
-
We start piercing clients at age 14 with proper ID and guardian consent. Some piercings are age-restricted, so please check our minor policy before booking.
-
Yes. Anyone under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian present, along with valid identification for both parties. Guardians must provide proof of guardianship if they are not the biological parent.
-
A valid government-issued photo ID is required (driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID). For minors, a school ID combined with a birth certificate can also be accepted.
-
Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but most clients describe the sensation as quick and manageable. We focus on keeping you comfortable and relaxed throughout the process.
-
Healing times vary depending on the piercing. For example, nostrils typically take 3–4 months, navels 6–9 months, and ears anywhere from 6 weeks to several months. We’ll provide a personalized aftercare guide at your appointment.
-
We only use high-quality implant-grade titanium, gold, and other APP-standard verified jewelry. This ensures safety, comfort, and long-term wear.
-
The State of Kansas does not allow for outside jewelry to not used for initial piercings. We only pierce with jewelry purchased directly from our studio. This guarantees proper sterilization and material quality.
We do not accept outside jewelry for installation. All jewelry must be purchased directly through our studio to ensure proper sterilization and material quality.
-
Prices vary depending on placement and jewelry choice. Please contact us or stop by for a full breakdown.
-
All piercings are by appointment only. If a scheduled appointment does not show and time allows, we may be able to accommodate a walk-in, but this is not guaranteed.
-
Clean twice daily with a sterile saline solution, avoid touching with unwashed hands, and don’t remove or twist your jewelry during healing. We’ll give you detailed aftercare instructions before you leave.
-
Not until your piercing has fully healed. Changing jewelry too soon can cause irritation or prolong healing. We’re happy to help with safe jewelry changes once you’re ready.
-
Don’t panic—irritation is common. Contact us for guidance before removing jewelry. Infections are rare but should be taken seriously; we can recommend the proper steps or when to seek medical care.
-
We do not use topical numbing agents, as they are ineffective for piercings. Our techniques are quick, precise, and designed to minimize discomfort naturally.
-
Yes, we do not offer surface anchors, horizontal tongue piercings, cheek piercings, or genital piercings. All piercings and services offered are at the practitioners discretion.
-
Always a single-use, sterilized needle. Piercing guns are unsafe and not used in professional piercing studios.
-
Healing is complete when there is no soreness, discharge, or swelling for several weeks. Even then, tissue may still be sensitive inside, so always check with us before making changes.
-
Light activity is fine, but avoid submerging your piercing in pools, lakes, or hot tubs until healed. Always clean your piercing after workouts or sweat exposure.
-
All jewelry sales are final for safety reasons. However, manufacturer warranties may apply if a piece is defective—please bring it back with as much of the original jewelry as possible.
-
We offer a wide range of hypoallergenic options, including implant-grade titanium and solid gold. Let us know your concerns, and we’ll help select the safest option.
-
Simply remove the jewelry and allow the hole to close naturally. In most cases, the body will heal over time, though some piercings may leave a small scar.
-
No. We do not perform piercings on clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Your body is more vulnerable to complications during this time, healing can be harder, and there is an increased risk of infection. For your safety and your baby’s well-being, it’s best to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding before getting pierced

-
Yes, some discomfort is expected. The level of pain depends on placement, size, and your personal tolerance. Most people describe it as a scratching or burning sensation rather than unbearable pain.
-
Yes, we offer tattoos starting at age 16 with the proper consent and documentation. Certain placement restrictions apply for minors, and these will be discussed during your consultation. For more details, please review our Minor Requirements page before your visit.
-
Initial healing usually takes 2–3 weeks, but the skin can take up to 2–3 months to fully settle. During this time, your tattoo may peel or itch — this is normal. Proper aftercare helps ensure the best results.
-
Pricing varies depending on size, detail, placement, and artist. Smaller tattoos may have a shop minimum, while larger or more detailed work is usually charged hourly. Always ask for an estimate during your consultation.
-
Absolutely. You can bring in ideas, sketches, or reference images. Your artist will work with you to refine the design, ensure it fits the placement, and make it tattoo-ready.
-
No. We do not tattoo clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. This is to protect both you and your child — your body’s immune system is already working harder, which can make healing more difficult, and there is also a small but real risk of infection or complications. In addition, pigments, aftercare products, and the stress of the procedure can potentially affect your baby. For your safety, it’s best to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding before getting tattooed.
