Despite many piercing salons imposing their own age restrictions for body piercings, there is no legal age restriction for any kind of piercing in England and Wales, unlike in Scotland, where people under 16 are required to have a parent’s permission before having ears and other body parts pierced.
Accordingly, what piercings can you get at 13 UK?
Piercing Age Restrictions
Piercing Types | Minimum Age | |
---|---|---|
With Parental Consent | With ID | |
Ear Rim (Scaffold/Industrial, Auricle, Helix etc) | 13 | 16 |
Inner Ear (Conch, Tragus, Daith etc) | 13 | 16 |
Septum | 16 | 18 |
Keeping this in view, how old do you have to be at Claire’s to get your cartilage pierced?
Minors (under the age of 18 in the US and under the age of 16 in Canada) will need a parent or legal guardian present to sign the Claire’s Ear Piercing Registry and show a government issued ID before getting started.
