FAQ

we understand that making a tattoo may be a bit stressfull for some people and we are here to help making it easier ♥️

if you have any questions, let us know

is a vegan tattoo a real tattoo?

absolutely! the diference of a vegan and a "tradicional" tattoo is that it's not tested on, not contain animal derived ingredients, such as bone char, gelatin, glycerin, shellac or lanolin

we use only the best quality supplies and we're very proud to say it's 100% vegan

are the biodegradable supplies used at the studio going back to the land?

the plastic materials we use during our sessions are made of cornstarch PLA or wheat, and after used they're infected so it has to be incinerated

we believe it's a much better solution than the tradicional plastic cause it uses 65% LESS energy to be produced and generates 68% FEWER greenhouse gases and NON toxic fumes when incinerated

although getting a tattoo has it's impact, we've managed to considerably reduce the environmental footprint through the solutions we've found
