Black Diamond Body Piercing in West Hartford. Absolutely the best.

Agree with this. They are a spectacular shop. They talk through all the steps and take time and care for each piercing to make the client as informed & comfortable as possible.

There is a chance they may not do it though - I believe the only piercing they do on a child under 16 is the ears. But I definitely could be remembering wrong.

Second this, that's where my sister goes and she told me all of the proper practices that they use.

Black Diamond in West Hartford. Worth the price. They're very careful, knowledgeable, and skilled, and they provide clear aftercare instructions.

Stay True in Newington is amazing. My wife and sister both had piercings done there by Jeane and she was professional, knowledgeable, and clean. They have a nice selection of upscale jewelry too.

Black Diamond in West Hartford as at least 2 others have said. Like 15 minutes away for the center of New Britain and was recommended to me when my tattooist stopped doing piercings.

Ok! Listen up! Apothecary body arts plainville! Just read the glowing reviews on John! They ain’t lying’! He is so amazing and lovely! He knew exactly the best spot to place it, it never even showed the slightest sign of being sore or infected. So extremely knowledgeable and kind. Great guy, nose his stuff…like my pun..nose his stuff!

My daughter is 15 and we have found a lot of businesses won't pierce under 16 with parental consent. MA will as young as 14 though.

Moonflower Boutique in Manchester is great! I got my nose pierced there at age 14 with parental consent and have gotten many more piercings there since

Any APP piercing shop. They maintain the highest industry standards. Black Diamond, Haven, Luckys, Stay True (all mentioned in this thread) belong to the APP.

The best place to get a 14 year olds nose pierced is to not get a 14 year olds nose pierced.

You're the parent. Sometimes you have to say no.

Ahhh but see I'm the parent and I said yes so now I'm looking for a place to take her not parenting advice. Thanks though

Absolute winning answer. Fuck the scolders, you sound like an awesome parent who knows how to make an informed decision alongside their child, not a kneejerk decision for them.

Thank you. I have lots of ink and piercings myself. I'd rather take her somewhere safe and knowledgeable instead of doing the dumb shit I did as a kid (doing it myself) we are new to CT but she has been asking for a year. I made her wait to be sure she really wanted it and she still does so why not take her and make it a fun experience

You could have just called OP trash instead of giving an answer to a question nobody asked.
