Tattoo Procedure

  • IRONBUZZ is a people-first tattoo brand that understands you and the permanent art you want in collaboration with our artists. We don’t just want to make beautiful tattoos—we want to make beautiful tattoos that leave a mark.

  • Yes, tattoos are generally safe when done by licensed and experienced professionals who follow proper hygiene and safety protocols.

  • Custom means we do not provide you with a range of ready made tattoos to choose from, we try to provide each client with a personalised tattoo based either on their personality, their likes or their memories instead.

  • We do understand the anxiety when deciding to get a tattoo done for the first time but always listen to your artist. Reason with them why getting a tattoo in a particular size matters.

  • Tattooing can cause some discomfort, but the level of pain varies for each person and depends on factors like your pain tolerance and the placement of the tattoo.

  • It is important you get a good nights sleep before coming in to have your tattoo done, getting tattoos can be stressful and you will be nervous so if your rested this will aid how you're feeling. Do not drink too much caffeine or energy drinks. They make you tense and will not help stress levels. Shower and wear clean clothes to your appointment, careful hygiene practice starts the minute you walk in the door. Be aware that depending on placement of your tattoo, you may be required to take off certain items of clothing, to make things more comfortable for you we suggest bringing a bikini top or shorts in preparation if necessary. 

  • It's not recommended to drink alcohol before getting a tattoo, as it can thin your blood and affect the healing process. It's best to avoid alcohol before your appointment.

  • Fainting is rare, but it's a good idea to have a light meal and stay hydrated before your appointment to minimise the chances.

Consultation

  • Different pieces require different types of consultations, consultations aren’t required for smaller tattoos. For larger tattoos we usually book you a week in advance of your tattoo appointment to discuss your tattoo with your artist, here we can take size maps and any other information your artist may need.

  • Bring all the images or references you have saved or printed off to show your artist. This helps your artist have a better idea of what you're actually looking for. If you don’t have any reference images, just prepare yourself to give a clear description of what you're looking to have done. You will also need a deposit, the deposit ranges from Rs.3000- Rs.20,000 depending on the size of your tattoo.

Other questions

  • We do indeed. But it is important to keep in mind that not all tattoos can be fixed or covered. For more information on cover ups and touch up’s you can message us directly by filling in the form on our website.

  • Laser tattoo removal is a process where a high powered light penetrates through the top layers of skin and hits larger molecules of ink subsequently breaking them down to be absorbed by the body. Ideally, laser removal will remove all evidence of a tattoo with no marking or scarring. Although some types of ink are harder to remove than others, and complete removal is not always possible.

  • Wear something comfortable and appropriate for the area you're getting tattooed. Loose-fitting clothing is usually a good choice.
