PLEASE NOTE:

  • Proper documentation is required by state law and Texas State Health Department regulations and we are required to have proper documentation on hand for every piercing service, even if we have provided piercing services for you in the past.
  • We do not perform the horizontal tongue ("snake eyes") piercing. This Piercing is disapproved by the Association of Professional Piercers and causes a tremendous amount of damage to the tongue and has a very high rejection rate.
