Hey there! I’m so excited you’re here to explore the beautiful and unique world of play piercing.
Play piercing is the art of creating temporary body modification using needles or other piercing implements for aesthetic or sensory purposes. Unlike traditional piercings, play piercings are designed to be temporary—meant to be enjoyed for a few hours—and are typically not meant to heal as permanent fixtures. This means you can experiment with different looks and designs without the long-term commitment of a tattoo.
The possibilities for play piercing are truly endless, from simple, elegant touches to intricate, wild patterns that transform your look for a special moment or experience. It’s a fantastic way to express yourself, push boundaries, or simply explore a fascinating art form. While play piercing will leave some very light scarring, for smaller gauges it will be next to none. Larger gauges might leave a bit more, but this can often be tattooed over someday if you choose.
We’ll start with an initial online consultation. This is where we truly understand your vision, discuss preferred placement, explore design ideas, and address any safety considerations specific to your anatomy and desired outcome. If after our online chat you’d prefer an additional, in-depth in-person consultation, we can certainly arrange that!
During your in-studio session, all piercings are performed using sterile needles and strict aseptic techniques, always adhering to the highest standards of cleanliness and safety. I’ll make sure you’re comfortable and informed every step of the way.
Once your temporary art is complete and you’ve had a chance to enjoy the moment, we’ll remove all needles before you leave. Your fresh piercing sites will then be wrapped and bandaged with sterile gauze pads. I’ll provide you with clear, easy-to-follow aftercare instructions on how to keep those areas clean and comfortable for the next few days. You’ll also go home with any jewelry we might have used, along with any non-sharp supplies, as I’m not going to be using them on anyone else!
Let’s Chat First! To get started, we’ll schedule an initial online consultation. Seriously, for anything, especially bigger or custom ideas, this is the best first step. We can figure out exactly what you’re dreaming of, and I’ll give you a clear quote tailored to your vision. No surprises!
Optional In-Person Consultation: If after our online discussion you’d prefer to meet in person to finalize details or explore options, we can absolutely arrange that.

When it comes to play piercing, the investment goes far beyond just a temporary body modification. My pricing reflects the intricate skill, meticulous care, and comprehensive experience you receive. It’s about ensuring every aspect of your session contributes to a beautiful, safe, and memorable artistic journey.
Your price covers:
My Specialized Skills & Artistry: With over 12 years of experience within the body art industry and 2 dedicated years focusing specifically on the art of play piercing, my unique creative vision and meticulous precision are poured into every single piece. This isn’t your everyday piercing; it’s a bespoke art creation.

Our Awesome Team & Documentation: Sometimes I’ll have a skilled helper or photographer with me. They ensure everything runs smoothly, you’re super comfortable, and (if you’re down for it!) we capture stunning images or short video clips of your unique piece. This allows me to focus purely on the artistry while everything else is handled seamlessly, documenting your experience.
We love to capture the beautiful, temporary art we create! Documenting our work helps us update our portfolio, share our passion on social media (like Instagram), and showcase the unique possibilities of play piercing on our website.
During your session, I may have a dedicated helper or photographer present to respectfully capture images or short video clips of the design process and the final piece.
However, your comfort and privacy are always our top priority.
Your explicit consent is always required before any photography or filming takes place. We will discuss this with you fully during your initial online consultation and again before your in-studio session begins. You will have the complete freedom to:
Consent to photos/videos being taken.
Decline all photography/filming – no questions asked.
Consent with specific limitations, such as ensuring your face is not shown, or that any unique tattoos or identifying features are not visible in the final images.
Your decision regarding photography or filming will never affect the quality of your service or your experience with me. We respect your privacy completely.
