          Consent form<\/b><\/span><\/h2>

          A consent form must be completed prior to every piercing procedure.<\/p>

          This form is provided digitally in the studio and must be completed in full before the procedure can take place. You will also receive a copy for your records.<\/p>

          \u00a0<\/p>

            Circumstances Under Which We May Refuse a Piercing Procedure<\/b><\/span><\/h2>

            \u00a0<\/p>

            The safety of our clients is always our highest priority. For this reason, we reserve the right to refuse a piercing procedure if we believe that proceeding would not be safe or appropriate.<\/p>

            This can be when:<\/p>

            • Suspected alcohol or drug use prior to the appointment.<\/span><\/li>
            • Pregnancy or breast feeding<\/span><\/li>
            • Unsuitable anatomy for the desired piercing<\/span><\/li>
            • Medical conditions which interfere with the treatment or healing<\/span><\/li>
            • Not being able to show valid ID<\/span><\/li>
            • Missing parental consent<\/span><\/li>
            • Unrealistic expectations of the result or healing<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

              \u00a0<\/p>

              Every anatomy is unique. Therefore, prior to every piercing, we assess whether the desired placement is safe, appropriate, and sustainable in the long term.<\/p>

              If, based on your anatomy or health, a piercing cannot be performed safely and responsibly, we will always explain this honestly and, where possible, recommend a suitable alternative.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
