18, I know because my sister has gone and they wouldn’t pierce her without my mom and she is 17. I did both of my ears myself for free and they never got infected or hurt. ---

Wait till your 20-21…You’ll realize you wasted money all those years back. The good thing about piercings is they aren’t permanent, unlike Tattoos. Anybody that thinks that @ 16 they should go to Canada get a poorly done tattoo, pay double the price, and have no meaning to it once so ever is either A) a Skank or B) a douchebag/tool. ---

i would never go to canada for a tattoo, and the reason i want a piercing now is so that way, if i get a suit and tie job in the future it can come out, ive already thought most of this through. ---

most parents, unless they are overprotective nuts, will let you get your ear pierced or something minor like that(not too mention anything more extreme than that will make you look like an idiot unless you wear black parachute pants with suspenders and lime green stitching, in which case the piercings aren’t necessary to make you look like an idiot) so just tell them you want one, they’ll probably be chill with it, I mean its not even truly permanent and it costs all of 10 dollars(at least at most professional places, they usually pierce you for free and just charge you the cost of the jewelry and their ear care products of choice, in my case it was $10 for a 14g ring and $5 for a little bottle of Provon soap) I got mine when I was 18 w/o my parents expecting them to flip a little when they saw it but they didn’t really care, my mom frown/smiled and my dad told me it looked a little gay…I countered by telling him it didn’t look as gay as his tie and that was that lol [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-old-do-you-have-to-be/63654.md?page=2)
