👉🏽 Can my child under 18 get tattooed with a parent’s permission?
No.
As a licensed tattoo studio operating under Illinois law, it is illegal to tattoo anyone under the age of 18 in the state of Illinois, even with parental consent.
👉🏽 How old do you have to be to get your ears pierced?
Any age!
As a licensed Illinois piercing studio, we can pierce ears for infants, children, teens, and adults with proper parent or guardian consent for anyone under 18.
👶 We recommend infants be at least 3 months old before piercing.
Looking to have both ears pierced at the same time? We offer Tandem Ear Piercing Events 1–2 Saturdays each month, where two trained professionals pierce simultaneously for a quick and comfortable experience.
