Minor Requirements

​Florida law dictates only the minor's natural parent or legal guardian may provide consent. Under Florida law, anyone under 18 wishing to be pierced (yes, even lobes!) must provide:
  1. Photo identification for consenting guardian AND minor (like valid, non-expired state ID, passport, or public school-issued ID or yearbook)
  2. Proof of age for consenting guardian AND minor (like valid, non-expired state ID, passport, or birth certificate)
  3. Proof of legal relationship to the guardian signing consent (like original or certified copies of birth certificate, custody paperwork, adoption paperwork, or guardian paperwork)

All of the above documents are required at every minor piercing appointment, regardless of age.

​Anyone under 16 MUST be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian during the procedure. Minors 16 or older still need all legally required documentation and notarized consent, but guardian does not need to be present.

We often get questions about how old someone has to be to get a specific piercing. Ultimately, whether or not we will perform a piercing on a minor is dependent on factors like anatomy, lifestyle, and whether the person being pierced already has experience healing other piercings. With each minor service on the booking page we have included a typical age range that we like to stick to for piercings that are more difficult to heal and piercings that incur a risk of facial scarring, dental damage, etc. If you are interested in a specific piercing but don’t fall within the age range we have listed, we encourage you to set up a consultation appointment with a piercer to discuss the piercing in-person.

FL Department of Health Consent Form:
  • Available to download and print, as well as in-studio. We provide notary services on-site for a $5 fee. If parent or guardian is not present for the piercing, the form must be signed and notarized prior to arriving.

If you have any questions about documentation, feel free to reach out to us.
