Hi friends; I wanted to take a moment to let everyone know that going forward things will be slightly different, but not by much!
You have always needed ID (and/or birth certificates) for new piercings, but photos were usually okay, especially if we lived far away or forgot it at home. However, I cannot take the risk of fake or edited ID at this point, so you MUST have your ID on your person at the time of your service from now on. You will either have to cancel or reschedule if you show up without the proper identification.
For anyone 18+ this would be a drivers license, state ID cards, or passports only.
For minors I can take one of the three IDs listed above or a school ID as well as their birth certificate and parents ID. Please dm or text me with any questions!
I’m real terrible at taking photos anyway, but I will absolutely not be taking anymore photos of anyone under 18 for their safety from now on. The internet has always been a bad place; but with AI and new laws it is even worse now. Parents are more than welcome to take their own photos of their kiddos (before or after the piercing)!
