Can you get a tattoo at 16 if a parent is there with permission??

In the state of Tennessee you need to be 18 to get a tattoo, unless its approved coverup, than you will need to get parental consent and be at least 16. Nashville Ink don't accept anyone under 18 for tattoos. Hope that helps

Yes.. if your legal guardian is with you with your birth certificate there physical state ID

By laws of State of Tennessee you actually have to be 18 to get a tattoo.
