How do you get piercing license is Massachusetts?

Answer 1

To get a license to provide body piercing services you first need to be trained to provide the services. This requires you to obtain a certificate of training from an accredited facility that provides training or an apprenticeship under an already accredited and licensed professional body piercer who will attest to your training.

Next you need to file an application with the local health inspection facility and the local business licensing department for the area you wish to operate in. Now they both have requirements that must be met before you can be issued a license and a health inspection.

They will advise you of the requirements that need to be met. It's not just one entity you are dealing with but several levels of government that must approve your proposal. You had better obtain your first aid certification, certificate of training, proof of business insurance coverage or ability to obtain rider. You need to be over 21 and in some cases you must be bondable and clear a criminal records check (this may be a requirement of many municipalities prior to licensing application submission).

Answer 2

Answer 3

Body Piercing facilities are inspected by the local health protection and inspection office and are licensed by the local city hall business licensing department. Listed in the yellow pages under heading of "Body Piercing" and or "Tattoos". All Body Piercing and Tattoo studios have age limits set by the licensing agency so age limits can vary from town to town and city to city. Prices for piercings can also vary from shop to shop as well as the requirements for parental consent. Your best bet is to call your local city hall business licensing office and ask about age requirements for your area. Then call the local studios listed and ask about shop policies and prices.
