Don’t let the casual vibe fool you—Buzz Club is sterile to a point that would make a hospital janitor weep with joy. Every needle comes sealed, every surface is wiped down, and the artists wear gloves like they’re about to perform open-heart surgery on a diamond. They take hygiene so seriously, they once kicked out a guy for sneezing near the ink bottles. (Okay, that’s a joke. But they did make him use hand sanitizer three times.)
Surprising fact: The UK has some of the strictest tattoo hygiene laws in the world, and Buzz Club exceeds them by a mile. Their autoclave (the machine that sterilizes tools) is tested more often than my willpower around doughnuts.
