Answer 1

For tattoos you have to be 18, but for body piercing there is no age limit. i couldn't read it either, i looked it up online though.

Answer 2

it doesnt say sorry message me and tell me what type of piercing....if it is belly its 18 without a parents concent younger and you need one...if its on you ears it doesnt matter....if its your tounge it is the same as your belly.

Answer 3

You expect US to look at that for YOU, so YOU can get a piercing?  Why don't you read it, and find out for yourself?

Answer 4

peircings can be done at any age with parental consent.  I had my ears peirced when I was a baby.

You have to be 18 to get them without parental concent.

The article appears to be about the risk of infections from peircings.

Answer 5

it doesn't say

but i think you have to be 16 to do it alone without adult signature. But you can be any age with adult signature.

Answer 6

dont listen to people

you can almost never get anything done to your body without a parental consent

most states are 18 and some are 16

but you can get a piercing anytime, if your mom or dad is with you

Answer 7

I don't know, the site only talks about health complications with piercings. I think it depends state to state, and shop to shop. The least sketchy places (most reliable.) Would probably ask for parental consent for a minor. I know of kids at my school (middle school.) That have got lip and eyebrow piercings without their parents knowing, but I don't really know the situation. They were about 14, but I'm not from Iowa, and I don't know exactly what those kids did. Your best bet would be to find a handful of reliable piercing places, and ask them.

Answer 8

Where I live, you have to be 18 to get a piercing without your parent/guardian present.
