Tattoo and piercing services resume in Meadow Lake
A local tattoo and piercing studio is booked solid after months of mandatory closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mackenzie Bergen, owner of Mac Piercing located inside Arlene’s in Meadow Lake told meadowlakeNOW her customers anticipated her reopening for weeks. She said during the closure she received invitations to do piercings at customers’ homes.
“I’ve been getting messages for three months from people wanting me to come to their home,” she said with a laugh. “Unfortunately I can’t, I fall under the guidelines of health and I can’t come to homes to do piercings.”
Under The Public Health Act, personal service facilities are required to operate in a hygienic manner and in a manner that prevents and minimizes the risk of transmission of disease to clients or individuals providing personal services.
