How old do i have to be to get an industrial piercing?

I'm not saying how old i am, let's just say i'm pretty young.

And please don't just talk about "You'll regret this, it's a bad decision, you'll get tired of it in a few years, ect."

I know that for some things you have to be a certain age, or have a parent sign for it.

I have a parent that will do that, i just don't know if maybe there's a certain age limit or something

is there?

Update:

WITH a parent..

how old do you have to be WITH a parent

people seem to be talking about without a parent..

    I don't think there is an age limit. But I'm pretty sure no professional piercer will give that kind of pierceing to an extreamly young person (like a 9 year old). I think it's best to at least wait untill you are 15-16 to get an industrial. So you'll know that your ear won't grow anymore because you have pretty much finished growing.

    It depends completely on the place, I know places near me that won't do piercings unless your 16(with parental consent) and some that will pierce 12 year olds(with parental consent.)

    My suggestion would be to call places up and ask how old you need to be and what you need to bring; some need parents id and birth certificate, each place has a different way of doing things.

    Good luck(:

    You have to be 18 to get a piercing without a parent accompanying you. It is illegal for any piercer to pierce a minor with out parental consent!

    At the place I go to you have to be 16, but that may be different for your state. Try calling some places to see what they say.

    most places wont let you until your 18 and can provide an ID, unless you find an underground artist.
