Brief History of Piercing
Evidence of body piercing dates back to prehistoric times. Much like tattooing, early humans pierced parts of their bodies for symbolic, cultural, ceremonial, or spiritual reasons. All of which have echoed through the ages. It is sacred.
Ear piercing and nose piercing have been particularly widespread and are well represented in historical records and among grave goods. The oldest mummified remains ever discovered had earrings, attesting to the existence of the practice more than 5,000 years ago. Nose piercing is documented as far back as 1500 BCE.
It wasn't until the 21st Century that piercing had begun to fully enter the mainstream culture, primarily in the late 1900s to present day with almost every type of piercing becoming more widely accepted in societies, countries, genders and age groups.

Tattoo Frequently Asked Questions
1
What paperwork is required for a piercing?
For any and all Piercing services, we require a valid state issued I.D. We cannot proceed with a service until a valid state-issued I.D. has been provided. You MUST BE 18 or Have a parent present with their I.D., Child's birth certificate, or Minor's drivers license.
2
Can my friend or non-immediate relative consent for my piercing?
We require that if the client is a minor, that their parent or guardian is present. A parent's ID, Guardianship Papers, and the minor's driver's license/birth certificate.ID's like school ID's or insurance cards are not considered to meet the requirement.
3
Is there a fee to switch jewelry?
Yes, there is a $15 fee with any jewelry change. It compensates the materials being used and the time spent with the client.
4
Am I allowed to bring my own jewelry?
We do not allow clients to bring in their own jewelry for initial piercings (only for healed jewelry changes). We are regulated by the Health Department and have to meet criteria in order to operate. That being said we have to provide metal certificates showing the quality of the jewelry being used.
