RAISING THE STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE IN OUR INDUSTRY

One that is safe, and where all people know they are welcome.
Positions
Body Art Consultants
At many other studios, this position is called “counter person” or “counter”. We decided that our people offer so much more than standing at a counter and deserve much more respect than this position has historically received in traditional studios. This position is our first impression with the client, the first person who is knowledgeable enough to offer suggestions and answer questions, they help direct clients to the person who can help them best, and do everything they can to ensure that clients feel welcome and satisfied. They do a tremendous amount of work to help the tattooers and piercers and are invaluable to us. For this reason, our BACs (Body Art Consultants) are on the same level in the business as the tattooers and piercers.
Piercers
We look for the best in the industry. APP (Association of Profesional Piercers) members, highly trained cross-contamination and bloodborne pathogens prevention and passionate about learning the newest and best techniques and education available. They value doing piercings the absolute best way possible and using the highest quality jewelry available on the market. They are relentless in treating clients with respect and helping them feel safe and welcome. We only use the best jewelry and hire the most professional and friendly piercers because our clients deserve it. We enjoy the APP Conference every year and work to learn the most cutting edge techniques and information. We are almost entirely disposable to provide the cleanest possible piercing experience.
