For underage piercings, do you have to go with a parent, or can you go with a sibling who is over 18?

Question

i'm 17 and i want my tragus pierced.

would it have to be my parent who accompanied me, or could my 19-year-old brother? what are the rules on that?

Answer 1

depends where you go. but most likely they will. good luckk

Answer 2

You can go with someone who's over 18, so if you're brothers willing to go with you, take him.

Answer 3

you have to go with a  parent.

i tried to take my sister with me before but they need your parents signature in case something happens for example an infection.

Answer 4

Most states require a parent if you are under 18.  Otherwise the shops risk being shut down.

Answer 5

Mosat places will accept you with someone who is of age, but other places need your PARENTS signature when you go in. I know that that was the case when I got my belly-button pierced when I was 15. My mom came and signed. Your best bet would be to just phone the place and ask. Hope this helps!

Answer 6

well my friend needed his mom and her id to get his tongue pierced so you will porbably need your mom to go with you I think its stupid but thats the way they are  

Answer 7

Although there are places that will take a sibling's consent, I would steer clear of them.  If they are lax on that rule, it's hard telling what else they are lax on.  You want a place that is very clean and strict about the rules.  This is your body and your health!

Answer 8

I think it varies state to state. I think as long as you have a legal adult to sign the consent then they can't argue otherwise. my older cousin took my sister to get her ears pierced
