Answer 28

Each place has a different age. Like most places in Europe is 18. I live in Mississippi and they won't pierce you or tattoo you or anything unless you are 18...even with a parent!!! But in Tennessee you can get a tattoo or piercing done at 16 with a parent and 18 without a parent. You'll just have to call the shop you plan to go to.

You have to be 18
