*We understand that some children age 7-12 may not have a government-issued ID yet. We accept a birth certificate for earlobe piercings. All other piercings require a form of ID.

❗A parent or legal guardian must be present during the piercing. Here are the requirements from the parent or legal guardian:

  • Parent(s) must provide a valid government-issued photo ID at the time of the piercing.

  • Legal guardian(s) must provide a valid government-issued photo ID at the time of the piercing. We require court documentation that states guardianship.

❗List of piercings for minors:

Earlobes - Age 10+

Ear Cartilage (All*) - Age 13+

Nostril + Septum - Age 13+

Navel - anatomy dependent*

Eyebrow - anatomy dependent*

We do not offer daith or industrial piercings on minors

❗Swimming and sports: If your child is enrolled in swimming or other sports, getting a piercing is best after the season. Healing a piercing can take 4-6 months for earlobes and 9-12+ months for any cartilage piercing. Submerging a healing piercing in large bodies of water, covering piercings with waterproof band aids or temporarily removing the piercing for practice or competition will cause complications during healing and/or close up if the jewelry is temporarily removed.

❗Piercer’s discretion*: In some cases, our piercers may need to decline a piercing due to anatomy, recreational activities or other safety reasons. It is up to the piercer’s discretion if they are comfortable doing the piercing on a minor after a consultation.
