Piercing Age Minimums

There are several reasons why a minor's age and/or maturity might factor into whether or not we feel comfortable performing a particular piercing on them. The minor's ability to understand the responsibility of getting and caring for a piercing is taken into account. Their anatomy is also important to take into account. In some cases, it is best to wait until they have grown a bit more before getting a piercing to ensure it is placed correctly and will not migrate as they become adults

Our general guidelines are below, but are subject to change at the piercer's discretion

• Earlobe piercings: 5 years old

• Other ear piercings: 13 years old

• Navel piercings: 15 years old

• Oral & Anchor piercings: 16 years old

• Genital & Nipple Piercings: Must be 18 years or older. Absolutely no exceptions
