SALT LAKE CITY – Minors will need a parent’s written consent to get a tattoo or body piercing if legislation being pushed this session becomes law.
The measure also provides protections for a tattoo parlor that may unwittingly give a tattoo to a minor.
The parlor can avoid a misdemeanor charge if it can produce a photocopy of a valid driver’s license or other ID on file if a person claims to be 18 or older.
Sponsored by Rep. Jon Stanard, R-St. George, HB 117, received a favorable recommendation Tuesday from a House committee and will now advance to the House for further consideration.
