okay, so in New York state how old do you have to be to get tattooed or have a monroe or something?
i'm 15 and live in the 12590 area.

Where I live in NY, most tattoo parlors won't even touch you, even if you have a parent with you and you're under the age of 18. They could get in trouble, and don't want to risk piercing or tattooing a minor. Some places will do it for you, even if you are 15. Just make sure they're sterile since you don't want the monroe piercing infected. This girl I know got a septum piercing done, and it's now lopsided since she went to some sketchy tattoo parlor. So be aware of something like that happening.
I hope this helps. :)

To get tattooed you have to be 18 without a parent there. You can be 16 with parental vision.
To get a piercing, it's much younger.
I got my nose pierced at 14 but I was with my Dad.
I believe it's 13 and older with a parent, and 16 without a parent for piercings.
It's also a 90% that they'll ask for an ID or birth certificate as well.

You have to be 18 to get a tattoo or piercing without parental consent, but I believe if you are 16 or older most parlors will let you when you have a parent or legal guardian present. Just go into the parlor and ask the employees to be sure, but you have to have a parent with you to legally enter a tattoo/piercing parlor.
