    If you have to ask the question in the first place, you're too young...

    It is, I wasn't trying to suggest that it's not. But if it's something that you've to consider, then you are definately too young to get one without parental consent.

    Most places for stuff like ears or nose it's 16.


    Anything else - 18.

    Depends on each studio, they all have their own guidelines, some more lenient than others

    Depends on where you wanna get it done. Places like George's Arcade will do anything with no questions asked, but other places vary. I know Bodyshock in Temple Bar is 16 for ears, 18 for anything else, if that helps. Basically anything involving a needle will need parental consent if you're under 18.

    anywhere that'll do it under 18 is pretty much to be avoided anyway really
