Under 18, prohibited?

Are you under 18 and want to get a tattoo?
Yes, but… there are a few conditions to meet. Or more precisely, documents to complete!

Getting a tattoo when you're under 18 isn't impossible, but You need to be sure you want to do it and be aware of what this act implies.

Moreover, a parent or legal guardian of the minor must be present on the day of the appointment. (with a valid identity card) and will also need to fill out an authorization this shows that he knows what a tattoo entails and gives his consent to carry out the project of the minor he/she represents.

Please note, I am not encouraging people to get tattoos too early (I got my first tattoo at 25 and luckily I didn't do what I wanted to do when I was 18), but everyone is free to do what they want with their body (within the framework of applicable laws).

Too much pressure? Too much paperwork? Too complicated? Wait until you're 18 🙂

In this article I give you some points to consider before embarking on a tattoo project.
