No ID, No Piercing: Why Identification is Essential

No ID, No Piercing: Why Identification is Essential

At Static Ink, we prioritise safety and responsibility. That's why we have a strict "No ID, No Piercing" policy.

Why is identification so important?

  1. Age Verification:  Many piercings are regulated by law, requiring clients to be a certain age.  We need to ensure we are complying with local regulations.
  2. Consent Confirmation:  Proper identification helps us confirm that the person receiving the piercing is indeed the individual providing consent.
  3. Maintaining Accurate Records:  Your safety is our priority.  Identification allows us to keep accurate records for any future needs or concerns.
  4. Preventing Fraud and Misrepresentation:  Requiring ID helps us prevent unauthorized individuals from receiving piercings.

Acceptable forms of ID:

 * Government-issued photo ID: (e.g., driver's license, passport)

 * Other official photo ID: (e.g., student ID)

Important Note for Guardians:

If you are the legal guardian of a minor seeking a piercing and your last name differs from the child's, please bring a copy of the child's birth certificate in addition to your own ID. This helps us verify your guardianship and ensure we have proper consent.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.  Our "No ID, No Piercing" policy is in place to protect both our clients and our business.
