What To Bring

Getting Pierced at Vanilla

Walk in ready. Leave stacked.

To keep your appointment smooth, safe, and stress-free, here’s exactly what you need to bring:

---

VALID ID (THIS IS NON-NEGOTIABLE)

We operate under strict Australian regulations.

Please bring one of the following:

• Driver’s Licence
• Passport
• Proof of Age Card

No ID = No Piercing.
Even if you “look old enough.”

---

👶 IF YOU’RE UNDER 18

You’ll need:

• A parent or legal guardian present
• Their valid ID
• Your ID (if you have it)
• Proof of Guardian - e.g. Medicare, Private Health Insurance, Birth Certificate (document with both guardian and child name will suffice)

If you have any further question please ask our helpful team.

For some piercings, additional restrictions may apply.

💳 PAYMENT READY

We accept:

• Card
• Contactless / Apple Pay / Google Pay
• Cash (where applicable)

Promotions (like 2-for deals) must be paid in the same transaction.

👕 WEAR THE RIGHT OUTFIT

Make your life easier (and ours):

• Loose, comfortable clothing
• Easy access to the area being pierced
• Avoid tight or restrictive pieces

Think: effortless in, effortless out.

---

🧼 COME CLEAN

• Shower beforehand
• Avoid heavy lotions, oils, or perfumes near the piercing area
• No fake tan on the area (seriously)

Clean skin = better healing.

🧠 BE IN THE RIGHT STATE

We will NOT pierce you if you are:

• Under the influence of alcohol or drugs
• Feeling unwell
• Unable to give clear consent

Eat beforehand. Stay hydrated. Show up sharp.

• The piercing you’re getting
• Your jewellery preference

Not sure? We’ll guide you — that’s part of the experience.
