FAQs
Who can get a piercing and at what age?
our studio offers all piercings to adults 18 years and up. select piercings are available for minors 13-17 years with a parent or legal guardian present at the time of piercing. if you cannot have a parent/guardian present and both show valid identification (birth certificate, legal guardianship) then unfortunately you cannot get pierced at Sink or swim. Lobes are available for minors 10+ with the same requirements.
What do I need to bring to my appointment?
please arrive on time and be ready for your piercing service. that means don’t come on an empty stomach, wear comfortable clothing that allows access to your piercing location, and ensure proper personal hygiene. You will need a physical copy of a Valid ID (license/passport) in order to check in for your appointment. any minor will need some form of ID (school, permit, birth certificate…) and a parent/guardian must be present.
Can you do a dermal?
yes, we offer various surface piercings. since these piercings can have some risks, we advise if you are under 18 you stop in with a parent or guardian to discuss these with our piercer. you can book an appointment using the link and select “dermal/surface”. at your appointment you can discuss your goals and our piercer will answer all your questions.
how much is a _____ piercing?
our pricing structure is designed to allow our piercer to get you exactly what you need, when you need it. the piercing fee you see when you book is for the service you’re requesting. our standard jewelry starts at $30 and aftercare is available also. So while this is a complex question and answer, the best advice is to plan a minimum of $75 for a single piercing, $110 for a pair, $115 for a dermal.
