Body Art Regulations
Licensing
Boulder County Public Health (BCPH) licenses and routinely inspects all body art facilities operating within the county. “Body art” facilities include any that provide tattoo, piercing, or permanent makeup services.
Recommendations
BCPH strongly recommends that people not receive tattoos, body piercings, or permanent makeup services from any person or business that is not licensed and inspected. Ask if a business is licensed, and be skeptical of advertising for body art from people who can travel to your house, or who offer to have you come to their house. Find out if the business is licensed by checking our list of Body Art Facility Inspection Records Search in Boulder County.
