Worth asking anywhere
Safety, Sanitation & Licensing at Pink Ink Vancouver
Cosmetic tattooing is skin-breaking work, and you should hold every studio — this one included — to the same standard. Fawn works “in a professional and clean environment,” in her own words, and this page exists to put specifics behind that sentence.
The questions worth asking any artist
Before anyone tattoos your face, you are entitled to clear answers to all of these — from us or from anyone else:
- Are you licensed for tattooing and permanent cosmetics in this state, and can I see the license?
- Is your bloodborne pathogen training current?
- Are needles and cartridges single-use, opened in front of me?
- What happens to the station, surfaces and equipment between clients?
- What pigments do you use, and can you tell me what is in them?
- What is your policy when my skin or health history makes a service a bad idea?
An artist who welcomes those questions is telling you something; an artist who deflects them is telling you more.
What we publish here, and when
We are compiling Fawn's license details, certifications, bloodborne pathogen training record and station protocol for publication on this page, and we would rather ship it late than ship it vague. Until each item is confirmed with the issuing records, it does not appear here — this site does not do approximate safety claims.
In the meantime, ask any of the questions above at your appointment or get in touch — direct answers, in person, about the exact setup that will be used on you.
What semi-permanent honestly means
Everything on the menu is semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing: results soften and fade over one to three years depending on your skin, lifestyle and sun exposure. Skin heals individually, so no honest studio promises a specific result — and a studio that does has already answered the questions above for you.
