There was a time when tattoo parlors had a reputation akin to seedy watering holes and other establishments that put all who wander in on-edge upon first inspection. Think of Pee-wee’s Big Adventure biker bar scene if you need a reference. The reputation was earned by some, with crude shop-talk, dim lighting, and gritty disrepair creating the atmosphere. While there has been a fundamental change for the better to the industry over the last decade or so, there remain to be a few within the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) who continue to perpetuate the stereotype. This is what has many (yourself included) performing an online search for safe tattoo shops and parlors nearby in the GTA. Below is a breakdown of what sets us apart from the rest, and why you will feel secure, comfortable, and welcome within our downtown Toronto studio.
What Makes Adrenaline the Safest Tattoo Shop / Parlor in Toronto
Strict Adherence to Health & Safety Protocols
Some people who search “safe tattoo shops near me” are concerned about cleanliness, sterilization, and general sanitary practices of tattoo parlors, tattooists, and their respective workstations. You’ll be pleased to know that Adrenaline Toronto meets or exceeds the detailed guidelines provided by the city and province in regard to tattoo infection prevention and control. We encourage you to contact our Queen Street West studio to ease any concerns you may have about health and safety.
Inclusive Non-Toxic Environment
Others who search “safe tattoo parlors near me” are more (or equally) focused on the ethereal environment and culture of the shop. Someone may not feel secure when it comes to perceived attitudes about gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, or even age. Take note that Adrenaline prides itself in providing a non-toxic space where people from all-walks-of-life and spectrums can come for their work of body art.
Busy Public Location in Downtown Toronto
Our shop is located in a bustling section of downtown Toronto’s Quest Street West, near Eaton Centre and a wide variety of vibrant shops, services, and hospitality businesses. From opening until closing you will never feel isolated or alone when visiting and leaving our tattoo parlor. And if you feel more comfortable having someone to walk you to your parked vehicle or to the transit stop after getting tattooed just let our staff (your new family) know!
