No, it's not! It's a fruit juice that temporarily stains the surface layer of your skin! More info here.

No, it won't! Jagua ink is just like henna – the ink is gently applied and only stains the skin's surface. There are no needles involved, and no skin penetration.

It can last up to 1-2 weeks with proper care. Please refer to the Aftercare page for more info.

Yes, Jagua is safe and does not contain harmful chemicals. It is similar to henna in several ways, it is made from a plant and has been used safely by several Amazon tribes for ages. However, there might be cases of allergies for people that are allergic to most tropical fruits. If you are sensitive, then you can do a patch test before using Jagua or discuss your concerns with your doctor. Also, in some individuals, when fresh Jagua body art is exposed to heat within the first 48 hours, it can actually lead to a reaction. In the event that you have a bad reaction to Jagua, you can use hydrocortisone or any other natural remedy to relieve the itchiness which is usually not severe.

The Jagua ink is generally safe for most skin types. However, there may be the possibility of skin allergies. We will recommend a patch test before a session. Contact us if you have concerns.
