Piercing Info

Our piercing service fees do not include the price of the jewelry, therefore prices will vary, depending on what you choose. We carry a wide selection of implant grade jewelry approved for use by the Association of Professional Piercers. You can read more about our jewelry here.

We pierce ear lobes on kids at 8 years old and up.

Minors between the ages of 8 and 12 require a free consultation,

at least 24 hours before the piercing appointment.

For people aged 13yrs and older, we pierce ear lobes, helix, conch, septums, and nostrils. With parental consent and valid photo ID from BOTH parties.

At 16yrs and older, with valid photo ID, you can sign for yourself for most piercings; except what is listed below.

Nipples, daiths, tongues, bridges, industrials, surface anchors/bars, and genital piercings,

are 18yrs and older with valid ID.

We need your ID every time you fill out a waiver form, even if you have shown it on a prior occasion. If you do not provide proper ID, we will not be able to pierce you and your deposit will be retained. Read more about our ID policies here.

When getting multiple ear cartilage piercings in the same sitting, the service fees are discounted by $20.

There are no service fees to downsize your jewelry during the healing process, we will only charge for the new jewelry installed.

Jewelry changes and insertions are $10.

We will install outside jewelry in healed piercings for a service fee of $15, as long as it is of proper size, material and in good condition.

Please note that we use studs for most healing piercings. We understand this may be surprising to some, so we want to ensure you are aware in advance.

Additionally, absolutely no numbing cream is allowed. This is because numbing creams can interfere with the piercing process and potentially cause complications. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

At Proper Poke Piercing and Tattoo, we prioritize your safety and satisfaction. For this reason, we do not pierce with outside jewelry. This policy ensures that all jewelry we use is of the highest quality, sterile, and safe for fresh piercings. By controlling the jewelry we install, we can guarantee a safe and successful piercing experience while minimizing any potential liabilities. Thank you for understanding and trusting us with your piercing needs!
