Piercing Information
Providing you with everything you need to know regarding piercing at Scarlett Peach PMU Ltd!

We operate a Challenge 25 system - Bring I.D!
Here at Scarlett Peach PMU Ltd we operate a Challenge 25 system. This means that if you are fortunate to look under 25 you will be asked for ID.

Anyone over the age of 18 can be pierced without parental or guardian consent.
​
10+ Years can have Lobes pierced with a parents consent and accompaniment.
​

​
When consenting for an under 18, you must be a birth parent or legal guardian and must bring formal ID to prove this.
​
Other family members/ family friends will not be allowed to give consent for a minor.
Failure to bring in the necessary documents/ID will result in your appointment being cancelled and deposit forfeited.
Pregnant/Breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding then unfortunately I will not be able to pierce you during this time.
As piercing leaves a body exposed to infection whilst healing, it is not advisable to take the risk.
Recent or Future Surgeries
If you have recently undergone a surgical procedure (medical or cosmetic) it is best to wait until you are fully healed before getting a piercing. Due to the healing process and the effect it can have upon your body, it is best to get a piercing when you are fit and healthy to ensure the best healing outcome.
This also applies if you have any surgery upcoming.
Can you bring your own jewellery?
For your initial piercing, the short answer is No.
I will only pierce the skin with jewellery I have sterilised myself. This is because I know that it will be titanium (which is very low risk for sensitivities) and that it is free from any germs or harmful bacteria.
​
If you would like me to change a healed piercing for jewellery that you have purchased yourself, you will need to bring that with you and be happy for me to run that through the autoclave machine to ensure it is sterile.
Jewellery Sales/Returns
Once an item has been chosen and touched your skin, this item belongs to you and is final. I cannot accept and returns/ refunds due to hygiene reasons.
If you chose to have your jewellery downsized, there will be a fee as the original jewellery will be given back to you.
Under No circumstances will used jewellery be used in any new piercing.
Accessibility and Disability Needs
Scarlett Peach PMU Ltd is a private clinic based on ground floor level. There is a small step over the threshold of the building. The clinic itself is able to accommodate a wheelchair. If you have any concerns, please give Scarlett a call on 07807061262 and we can discuss how we can make your appointment as easy as possible for you.
Can I bring someone with me?
Due to the size of the clinic, I can only allow for myself, yourself and one other person to be in the room at any one time.
Also due to safety reasons and the nature of the work I do, I cannot have any children (Unless they are the piercee) in the clinic under the age of 13 years old. If you attend your appointment with any children you will be turned away and your deposit will be forfeited.
