Minors Age 5-12
Master Pierce has made the decision to no longer pierce any children under the age of 5. If the child in question is between the ages of 5 and 12, a consult prior to the actual piercing is required. Without that consultation, we will not pierce the child. Going through the consultation does NOT guarantee a piercing for the child. It is entirely within the piercer's discretion to approve or reject the child as a client.
If a second appointment is necessary, it will require a $15 deposit that can be finalized here.
On the day of the piercing, there is a strict 30 minute window to finish the procedure. If the piercing cannot successfully be completed within that 30 minutes, a second appointment may be made with an additional $15 deposit.
The Florida Department of Health requires we have identification for both minor and legal guardian. Under the age of 12, identification is satisfied with either a birth certificate or valid passport.
Natural guardians (birth parents) must present legal, government-issued photo ID (i.e. driver's license or passport). In the case of differing last names, the birth certificate is a requirement. Expired IDs will not be accepted.
Legal guardians must present legal, government-issued photo ID (i.e. driver's license or passport) and valid court documentation of the guardianship. Expired IDs will not be accepted.
