About Us

Custom studio

abody tattooing is a custom studio. This means that we design your tattoo especially for you. Most of the time we work on appointments only.

First we'll talk about your design. If you have a drawing this always helps. Even when you can't draw they help us understand where you want to go with your tattoo.

Next step is that we make a design for your tattoo. When you are sure about the design we make an appointment to get you tattooed. We do take a down payment for the drawing; this is taken off the tattoo price later.

Design

It is important for a tattoo to go with the shape of your body. Not every shape fits every part of the body.

A tattoo has to be unique for you, it has to fit you. Maybe you have this favourite painting / picture / image and you would like to make a tattoo out of this. There are a lot more possibilities then you might think of at first. Check out our gallery for ideas!

We can't say this often enough: THINK BEFORE YOU INK!

Hygiene

We work according to the guidelines of the Leicester City Council, which means for instance a clean and sterile environment, new needles for each customer, hand gloves that get changed every time we touch anything else other than the tattoo machine or your skin.

FAQ

Does it hurt?

Yes tattooing hurts, but the pain is very bearable. Some places are more painful than others. But please don't take this under consideration when choosing the spot you want to get tattooed. Pain is just temporary, in the end your new tattoo has to be on the spot where you like it the most and where the design fits your body.

What to do before you get tattooed?

Rest well, don't go to bed to late, don't drink the night before or on the day you get tattooed, get a good meal prior getting tattooed. These things will make the tattooing easier on you and will help the healing process!

Things we don't do

• We don't tattoo people under the age of 18 years old.
• We don't tattoo racist texts or designs.
• We don't tattoo people who are under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
• We don't tattoo faces or hands and may sometimes deny tattooing a design that in our opinion will not stay beautiful.

Appointments

If you want to make an appointment you need to make a down payment. (If you didn't already made a down payment for a drawing). If you don't show on your appointment and you don't tell us 7 days prior to your appointment you will lose your down payment!. DON'T CALL=LOSE DOWN PAYMENT
