We are pleased to offer a safe and clean environment for children to get their first piercings done. We only use needles to pierce, and use sterile equipment and implant-grade jewelry to help ensure the health and longevity of their piercings. 

For children ages 5-13, we only offer earlobe piercings. Please see the Age Policy section for more information on which piercings can be performed at what age. 

Healing Time (approximate): 3-4 months for studs, 6 months for rings
Recommended Downsize Time: 6-8 weeks after initial piercing
Typical Jewelry Size: 16g studs with flat-back labret posts

Important Information

We do our children's earlobe piercings in tandem, which means two piercers are working together to pierce both ears at once. We find this is the best for younger clients, as the procedure is over and done with quickly. 

• During the piercing procedure, we ask parents to remain in the lobby. This allows the piercer and the client to be able to be in communication without distractions, as well as offering the child a safe place to say no if they are not comfortable. We keep the door open at all times and the parents can clearly hear their child. 
  
  
• As we are rapidly approaching summer and swimming season, it is important to ensure we keep all fresh piercings out of the water for a MINIMUM of 2 months. This does not include showers, but it does include baths, pools, lakes, and oceans. Hot tubs are okay as long as you don't submerge your head under water, and saunas are okay as long as you dry your piercings after. 
  
  
• We have recently seen an increase in questions about numbing cream. We absolutely do not allow the use of numbing cream for a piercing. Not only is it ineffective (it only numbs the surface layer and the needle pierces the whole thickness of the skin) but it can change the texture of the skin and make it difficult to pierce accurately. 

ID Requirements

We require government-issued ID from all clients being pierced, including minors. For those under 16, we do not require photo ID. The ID must have the client's name and date of birth.

We also require photo ID from the parent or guardian who is providing consent for the minor. See our ID page for more information about appropriate ID.
