Where can I get a tattoo now???

Question

I live in Maine. for my 17th birthday I want to get a tattoo. Maine doesn't let you get a tattoo until you're 18. I heard that vermont and connecticut allow you to get a tattoo with parental consent. Is that true?

You're right, both allow the tattooing of minors as long as there's parental consent.  Even then you should call around to different shops because some artists won't tattoo minors period.

Answer 2

get it when you 18 it's only 1 year more.

most of the places do it only from 18 because you not a minor so it will be really hard for you to find a place. good luck.

Answer 3

Connecticut does allow it with parental consent but it is still up to the tattoo shop/owner as to whether they will tattoo you. Most don't want to do them unless you are already 18. Don't rush it.
