We opened our doors in August 2009 as a dedicated piercing specialist, offering body piercings and fine jewellery with quality assured products.
In 2015 Nicole founded the UKAPP a national health and safety organization dedicated to the betterment of body piercing standards nationally.
Now with two fully equipped private piercing studios. We are more than proud to have taken our journey, to be Newcastle’s most trusted professional piercers.
Helping Raise the Standard of Body Piercing in the UK
Blue Lotus founder Nicole Holmes established the UK Association of Professional Piercers (UKAPP) in 2015, driven by a commitment to safer, more ethical piercing practices nationwide.
That same commitment to education, safety, and client care is at the heart of everything we do at Blue Lotus.
Lifetime guarantee
Why be pierced with us?
We use implant-grade, Phase 2 verified jewellery that meets medical material standards, reducing irritation risks and supporting healthier healing — the professional standard recommended by leading piercing authorities.
We proudly work with trusted partners across the globe — including Santa Cruz (USA), Australia, and precision needle manufacturers in Japan. The jewellery brands we use provide a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects, and we stand fully behind the quality of every piece we offer.
Private Treatment Rooms – Always
Every piercing is performed in a calm, fully private clinical room. Never on the shop floor, never on display
Not all piercing studios have dedicated sterilisation facilities. At Blue Lotus, we operate a fully separate sterilisation room where jewellery and instruments are properly cleaned and autoclave processed before every procedure.
It’s one of the many ways we prioritise your safety.
For our clients
We are here to guide you on your journey of personal transformation in a way that makes you feel safe, valued and cared for.
