Hygiene and Safety: Your Tattoo Artist's Standards in Metz

Hygiene and Safety: Your Tattoo Artist's Standards in Metz

25 March 2024

Choosing a Tattoo Studio in Metz

Choosing a tattoo studio in Metz should not be based solely on artistic style. Health and safety is criterion number 1. At Owink Studio, we make no compromises on your health.

Training and ARS Certification

In France, and specifically in Moselle, every tattoo and piercing professional must have completed mandatory training in hygiene and sanitation conditions. All our artists are certified and registered with the Regional Health Agency (ARS).

Our strict protocols

1. Single-use materials

We exclusively use sterile single-use needles, tips, and protective barriers. Everything that touches your skin is opened in front of you and disposed of in DASRI containers (Medical Waste with Infectious Risk) after your session.

2. Surface disinfection

The work station is fully protected by plastic barriers and disinfected with fungicidal, bactericidal, and virucidal solutions of hospital grade between each client.

3. Certified inks

We use only inks compliant with the European REACH regulation, guaranteeing the absence of carcinogenic or toxic substances.

What you can verify when you arrive

  • Is the studio visually clean and organized?
  • Does the artist wash their hands and put on fresh gloves?
  • Are the needles removed from their sealed packaging in front of you?

In Metz, choose safety. At Owink Studio, your health is as precious as your skin.
