Kiran was amazing! Her attention to detail and reassurance throughout the whole process was incredible. She spent time going over the design with me and made sure everything was perfect.
Got my helix pierced by Prerna and she did an absolutely amazing job!! Also had issues with a different piercing and she fixed it in a matter of seconds!
Lab means precision. These are the parts you can check.
Every station is set up with sterile, single-use needles and cartridges. If you want to watch anything opened before we start, ask. We would rather show you than tell you.
If an idea will not age well, or a cover-up is not worth doing, you will hear it at the consultation. Nothing goes on your skin until you have seen the drawing and said yes.
Idea, placement, rough size, reference photos and your dates, all in one form.
We recommend the right artist and reply with an honest plan.
Your artist confirms the amount. It comes off the final price and moves with seven days’ notice.
Bring photo ID. Leave with written aftercare, and call or text 902-448-2211 with any healing question.
Visit Tattoo Lab221 Herring Cove Rd, Halifax, NS B3P 1L3.
Open every day, 11 AM to 10 PM. Your artist or piercer confirms your appointment time.
Free parking on site, though space is limited. Halifax Transit 9A, 9B and 24 stop nearby.
Walk-ins depend on who is working. Piercings are usually easier to fit in. Call or text before you come in and we will tell you who is in and whether there is a wait.
Send the idea now, or keep looking. Nobody here is annoyed by questions.
