Consent template
The consent before the machine goes on: age and identification, the design as approved, the health disclosures and the risks.
Not a sample we wrote for this page. This is the document the product puts in your account, as a draft, the moment you say what you do.
Name your trade during setup — tattoo and piercing studios — and this is waiting for you, already written, in your words, with the blanks marked and the points a lawyer settles flagged for one. Edit it, or paste in what you already use. It is a starting point and not legal advice: the wording is yours to change and your attorney's to check.
Read off the document itself, so this list cannot drift away from what the document actually asks for.
business name · guest name · date of birth · date · artist name · procedure · placement · design description · touch up terms · health disclosures
10 blanks. They are filled once per send, from what you already know or from your own system through the API. They go into the document; they do not change its wording, and what somebody signed is the version they were shown.
These are the notes already written into the document, not our opinion about the law where you operate. The product refuses to send a document with one still in it, which is the point of them.
check the minimum age, the identification the law requires the studio to inspect and record, and whether a guardian may consent to a minor's procedure where you operate.
check the consent, record-keeping and retention rules the health authority sets for body art where you operate.
SignSealer does not give legal advice and this document is not legal advice. What it does is put the questions in front of you before somebody signs, rather than after.
The real text, with the blanks shown as blanks and the notes above lifted out so they are read rather than skimmed past.
Tattoo and Piercing Consent
business name — client guest name, born date of birth, on date. Artist: artist name. Procedure: procedure, placement placement, design or jewellery design description.
1. Age and identity. I am at least eighteen, or the age this state requires for what I am asking for, and I have shown photographic identification today. I understand the studio will not proceed if I have not.
2. What I am asking for. The design, size, spelling, placement and jewellery are as written above and as I have approved them. I have checked the spelling and the dates myself. I understand that this is permanent, that removal is expensive, incomplete and painful, and that a tattoo cannot be undone by changing my mind tomorrow.
3. How it will look. Colours and lines settle and lighten as they heal, skin tone and scarring change how ink looks, and no artist can promise an exact match to a reference picture. Touch-ups are as set here: touch up terms.
4. The risks. I understand that this procedure breaks the skin and that it carries risks including pain, swelling, bruising, bleeding, infection, allergic reaction to pigment, latex or metal, scarring and keloid formation, granuloma, migration or rejection of jewellery, temporary or lasting changes in sensation, and that infection can be serious. I accept those risks.
5. My health. I have told the studio, truthfully, about anything on this list that applies to me: health disclosures — including bleeding disorders, diabetes, heart conditions, skin conditions at the site, allergies, immune conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and anything I take that thins blood. I have not been drinking and am not under the influence of drugs today.
6. Not medical advice. This studio is not a medical practice, its staff are not clinicians, and nothing said here is medical advice or a diagnosis. If something goes wrong I will see a doctor.
7. Aftercare. I have been given aftercare instructions and I understand that healing depends mostly on what I do over the next weeks, and that the studio is not responsible for a result affected by my aftercare, sun, swimming, picking or a piercing I change too early.
8. Consent and release. I consent to the procedure. To the extent the law where business name operates allows, I release business name and the artist from claims arising from the ordinary and disclosed risks of it, other than claims arising from their negligence or from a failure to follow the health rules that apply to them.
By signing I confirm that I have read this, had every question answered, and meant to sign it.
