​What forms of ID do you accept?

We require a current, state or government-issued ID for anyone getting a new piercing and for any nipple/genital consultations or jewelry changes. You will need to bring your required ID(s) for every visit that necessitates it, even if we already have it on file. Required forms of ID for the client (including minors) will be uploaded to the release form at the time of the appointment. Release forms and uploaded IDs are store encrypted, on a secure server via Vagaro.

​

Acceptable Forms of ID:

• Driver’s License or Permit

• State-issued Photo ID

• Foreign Government-Issued Photo ID 

• US Passport

• Foreign Passport

• Tribal Cards

 

MINORS: Minors (under the age of 18) who are being pierced need to have an official photo ID, as well as the parent / legal guardian present with valid ID. Last names and addresses must match on the IDs; if they do not (or the minor does not have a photo ID), we'll need a copy of the minor’s official birth certificate with the present parent’s name or court-appointed custody documents proving guardianship over the minor. 

Please note that unofficial "wallet birth certificates" that do not have the child's full name, birth date, and parent's full names cannot be accepted.

​

We cannot accept photos of identification documents, printed or digital. Government-issued IDs such as driver's licenses must be in-date; expired IDs are accepted ONLY for adults over 18 years old if the ID is no more than 90 days past the expiration date. Expired IDs for minors or IDs more than 90 days past the expiration date will not be accepted. We also cannot accept school IDs, social security cards, military IDs (illegal to copy them) or insurance cards. For adults 18 and over, we do accept the official DMV-issued “paper ID” that is issued while waiting for the hard copy to arrive. 

​

PHYSICAL COPIES OF ALL REQUIRED IDs MUST BE PRESENTED & UPLOADED AT TIME OF SERVICE -- NO EXCEPTIONS.

FAILURE TO PROVIDE REQUIRED ID UPON APPOINTMENT CHECK-IN WILL RESULT IN THE APPOINTMENT BEING CANCELLED AND A CANCELLATION FEE WILL APPLY.
