Professional, skilled, and creative, our artists can provide any style of tattoo in a safe and comfortable environment.
Bound By Design is proud to offer the services of five full-time piercers. With piercers of both genders available, you can visit the dedicated and discreet piercing rooms any day of the week.
Location Exterior
Ages 6 months – 12 years: We will perform ear lobe piercings only. For children between the ages of 6 months and 2 years, we need two adults present for the piercing. The child’s birth certificate is required, and the last name on the certificate must match the photo ID of the parent or legal guardian accompanying them.
Ages 13 – 15 years: We will perform ear lobe and basic ear cartilage piercings (see detailed ID requirements below).
Ages 16 – 18: We will perform most facial and body piercings with parental consent (see detailed ID requirements below). We will not perform nipple or genital piercings, nor advanced ear projects such as industrials.
ID requirements:
You must bring a photo ID (such as a driver’s license, state issued ID card, passport, or school ID). If you only have a school ID, a birth certificate is also required.
A parent or legal guardian must accompany you, and they must bring their photo ID too. Your last names or your home addresses on the IDs must match. If for whatever reason the adult has a different last name/address than you do, we need some sort of paperwork that proves that they are your parent or legal guardian.
