Studio Protocols
Additional information about our safety protocols.
Safety is our first priority.
Please use hand sanitizer upon entry.
Doors, counters and other high touch areas are disinfected multiple times a day using appropriate cleaning equipment (Optim, Lysol Wipes, Etc.)
We ask that you come to your appointment on time, or five minutes early. Parking downtown can sometimes take a minute. There is ample parking on the street as well as in the parkades located on Seymour and Lansdown Street.
Expect your appointment to take 30-45 minutes.
If you are, or have been feeling unwell, please postpone your visit.
Government issued photo ID is required for all piercings.
Anyone getting pierced must bring a valid government issued photo ID to their appointment. Ex: Drivers License, Passport, Status Card, PAL.
Minors who are 16 years old or over can sign for themselves for certain piercings if they have a valid government issued photo ID.
Minors who are 15 years old or under must be accompanied by their Legal Guardian. The Legal Guardian must bring a valid government issued photo ID and a government issued ID that shows the name and birthdate of the minor. Ex: BC Services Card, Birth Certificate, Passport, Status Card.
If you have any questions about IDs or procedures, please contact us.
Thank you for your consideration.
We are looking forward to seeing you.
With love and respect,
~The whole Instinct team
