ACCESSIBILITY

Entrance and Tattooing Space
  • The front entrance is 105cm wide with one 10cm high step. 
  • We have a pair of 15cm wide telescopic ramps that can be placed to accomodate wheeled mobility aids of any width. They are weight rated for 270kg.
  • The downstairs tattooing area has 4 stations. The furniture in all stations is collapsable, so there is plenty of space for manoeuvring.
  • There is seating available in the waiting area.
  • All floors are timber laminate.
  • ​Some of our artists work upstairs, so please let us know in your appointment form if you have accessibility requirements. We can ensure the requested artist is working at a suitable station on the day of your appointment.

 Bathroom
  • Our bathroom is not wheelchair accessible.
  • PLEASE NOTE: Due to plumbing issues, our downstairs toilet is out of order until February 2025. The upstairs toilet is still working and available for client use.
  • The closest wheelchair accessible toilet is at the Flemington Library - 50 metres from the studio. When you enter the library there is an elevator on the left. The toilets are on the first floor (the level above the ground floor). Turn left when exiting the elevator and you will find the toilets at the back of the building. Check here for Flemington Library's opening hours.
  • The Library is closed on Sundays, but there is a fully wheelchair accessible Exeloo public bathroom in Pridham Plaza - 100 metres from the studio.

Tattooing Furniture
  • We have privacy screens available. If you’d like your artist to set up a privacy screen during your tattoo please don’t hesitate to ask.
  • Our folding chairs are user weight rated for a maximum of 150kg.
  • Our standard tattooing beds are user weight rated for a maximum of 230kg. We have a wider bed with a user weight rating of 250kg which can be utilised at client request. The height of the beds can be adjusted from a minimum of 60cm tall to a maximum of 80cm tall.
  • Please don't hesitate to contact us if you feel our current tattooing furniture will not accommodate you. We can make arrangements to source something suitable.

Scents
  • We occasionally burn incense in the studio, and mop our floors with Dettol every morning.
  • We use a scent-free product called Viraclean to disinfect all surfaces, but may use Dettol for cleaning skin before applying tattoo stencils.

Sounds
  • We play music in the studio. Each room has its own speaker which can be turned off at client request.
  • The majority of our rooms are shared, so there is likely to be conversational noise and the drone of tattoo machines.
  • Feel free to bring ear-plugs or noise-cancelling headphones.
  • If you would like to be tattooed in a private room, please advise your artist when filling in the appointment form. 

Allergies
  • By default we use latex gloves, but your artist can wear nitrile gloves if requested.
  • Please advise if you have any reaction to adhesives. This will influence the aftercare method your artist will use.
  • We may also use witch hazel and aloe vera during the tattoo process, however the process can be adjusted if required.
