Before you ask

Does it hurt?Yes, a bit. Outer forearm and thigh are the easy ones; ribs, sternum and inner arm are not. Most people find it's more boring than painful after the first twenty minutes.

I haven't got a design.Good. Most people don't. That's the part he does.

Can I not talk the whole time?Bring headphones. Genuinely, that's fine.

Is it clean?Single-use needles and tubes, opened in front of you, and everything else autoclaved. Studio is licensed for infection control.
