The main tattoo room at Fat Fugu: two black leather chairs set up side by side under the studio's name rendered in white string art on a black wall, black tiled dado, hexagonal LED lights and articulated lamps overhead.

SERVICES · THREE CUTS, ONE STANDARD

There are three ways to change a body in this building — mark it, pierce it, or clear it — and one standard for all three. Every service starts with a free consultation, every price is agreed out loud before anything touches skin, and every healing is followed to the end. The needle is different in each room; the hands are held to the same licence. And when the work is done, the fourth room — the Fugu Lounge — pours the drink.

01 · TATTOO — THE FLAGSHIP · BESPOKE ONLY

Tattoo

Nothing off the wall. Every piece here starts as a conversation and gets drawn for one body — yours. Single-needle through Japanese full-back, five residents and a guest chair. The process is numbered so you always know exactly where you stand.

01

Enquiry

One form — the only one in the building. Subject, size, placement, and your budget; honesty is welcome in both directions. A human replies inside three working days, never an autoresponder.

REPLY · < 3 WORKING DAYS
02

Consult

Thirty minutes with your artist — free, in the lounge or on a call. Placement, scale, sessions, and the real price, agreed out loud before any deposit changes hands.

CONSULTATION · FREE
03

Design

Drawn for you alone and never resold as flash. One round of revisions included; final tweaks happen at the stencil, where they belong.

REVISIONS · 1 ROUND INCL.
04

The Chair

Eat first, arrive ten minutes early. Pauses are yours to call, the lounge holds your people, and the aftercare walkthrough happens before you leave — not on a leaflet.

02 · PIERCING — WALK-IN · WED–SAT

Piercing

APP-trained piercers, implant-grade titanium as standard, gold once you're healed. Walk in Wednesday through Saturday or book a slot — either way the price is on the list below, not a surprise at the till.

PRICE LIST · JEWELLERY INCLUDED
  • Lobe £25
  • Nostril £35
  • Helix £35
  • Conch £40
  • Septum £40
  • Industrial £50
  • All prices include implant-grade titanium (ASTM F136)
THE STANDARD · WHAT TO EXPECT
  • ASingle-use, sealed needles — opened in front of you. No piercing guns, ever, on anything.
  • BTitanium first, solid gold on heal. We downsize the bar free at six weeks, once the swelling is gone.
  • CSixteen-plus with photo ID; lobes under sixteen with a parent present. We'd rather turn you away than bend it.
  • DAftercare saline and a plain-English healing sheet included — and the counter answers questions for free, forever.

03 · LASER REMOVAL — ROOM 03 · NO JUDGEMENT

Laser Removal

Precision Q-switched on five wavelengths, run by the same house that puts ink in. We undo with the same respect we marked — and we'll tell you honestly what laser can and can't do before you spend a penny.

THE HONEST NUMBERS
  • Consultation & patch test FREE
  • Per session, per area FROM £40
  • Most pieces, full removal 6–10 SESSIONS
  • Fade for a cover-up 2–4 SESSIONS
  • Gap between sessions 8 WEEKS
  • Sensation, truthfully HOT ELASTIC BAND
WHAT TO EXPECT
  • AConsultation first, always free: we assess ink density, colours, and skin, then quote per session — exactly, in writing.
  • BBlacks and dark blues respond best; yellows and whites are stubborn. If your piece won't clear fully, we say so at the patch test — not at session nine.
  • CFading for a rework takes fewer sessions than full removal. Rooms 01 and 03 plan cover-ups together, on one enquiry.
  • DAftercare is included: cooling and dressing on the day, then a healing check before your next session is booked.

AND THE FOURTH ROOM — NOT A SERVICE

Fugu Lounge

The social space the three cuts share. Café by day, bar by dusk, terrace until late — bring your people, keep the table after your session. No booking, no waitlist, no needle.
