There are always a lot of questions regarding body modification as well as a lot of disappointed people who walk into our shop expecting us to do just about anything on them.  We love that certain forms of body modification have begun to grow in popularity, but with this we remain cautious as to what services we perform, how we do them, and who we do them on.

Our in-house rules start with the client being at least 18 years of age.  Yes, for piercings if you are under the age of consent (in the state of new york) you can have a parent come and sign for you.  This does not hold true to any sort of body modification procedure.  Yes, this is our rule.  Yes, this may be unfair.  We dont care.  To us, even at the age of 18 some people are still immature, will rush into getting something that is “cool” and most likely not take care of it.

If you are 18+ you MUST complete an in-store consultation with Paul.  Yes, this is a requirement.  There are certain things we need to know before we can assess whether or not you can get the modification you have in mind.  We also want to know you live a healthy and clean life.  That work and such wont interfere with the procedure.  Placement, procedure type, and other things of that nature.

This all goes hand in hand with our “image” as a business.  We think we have a great reputation and we want to keep it that way.  Picking and choosing who we do work on may come across as a negative thing but we want to work on people who we feel will heal it, take care of it, and most importantly take the necessary steps AFTER the procedure to ensure proper healing.  We REQUIRE that we see the mod 2 to 3 times during the healing process.  The first time should be at least 2 weeks after the modification is complete.  After the first meeting we will schedule you for subsequent appointments.

In conclusion these rules are in place to ensure that the client is serious and dedicated to getting the procedure done, healing it, and taking the necessary steps afterwards.  These rules also help to build an understanding and a friendship between myself and the client.  With friendship comes comfort and if the client is comfortable even if there is a tiny problem, question, or concern we are at ease with the knowledge that the client will get in touch w/ us by any means necessary and will feel comfortable doing so.

Thank You

Paul
