Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring my own jewelry?

Unfortunately, due to a number of factors we are unable to pierce with outside jewelry. However, all piercings do include free basic starter jewelry and each of our locations have vast selections of upgraded jewelry to choose from.

How old do I need to be to get a piercing/tattoo without a parent/guardian present?

Since our locations in California and BC have different rules, and because we provide such a wide variety of piercing services if you are curious about the minimum age for a particular piercing please contact the Body Jewlz location that you play to visit prior to making the trip.

At all of our locations, tattooing is strictly age 18+.

What do I need to bring with me?

If you are visiting any of our locations for a piercing please remember to bring some sort of government issued photo ID. For those under 18 who need parent/guardian permission please ensure that the individual getting pierced, as well as their guardian both must bring ID.

Can I just walk in?

Yes! We are always happy to take walk in piercings, so please do not hesitate to come into the shop if you do not have an appointment or did not call ahead.

For tattoos walks ins are available based on availability, so feel free to call in advance to see how the day’s schedule looks.

How long does a piercing take to heal and how do I take care of a piercing?

What kinds of jewelry do you have available to pierce with?
