• For clients aged 13 & under we can accept a birth certificate, but the parent accompanying them must have photo I.D where their name matches the name on the childs birth certificate. If the parents’ name has changed (for example, after marriage) then we need to see proof of the name change.

• For clients aged 14 & 15 , one of their parents has to accompany them to their appointment. Both parent and the client will each be asked to provide photo I.D. If both parties cannot provide the paperwork required at the time of the appointment then we will will not be able to carry out the service.

• Clients aged 16+ only have to provide some photographic I.D for proof of age. All clients who are aged over 16 must bring photo I.D from the list of approved ID’s that we can accept (see below). It doesn’t matter if you clearly look older than 16, we still need a copy of your I.D to keep along with your personal details on the consent form.

Parental consent means that we need the birth parent , or legal adoptive / main carer of a person who is under the age of 16 to be present in the studio at the time of their appointment.

We cannot accept parental consent from;

  • Grandparents

  • Neighbours / close family friends

  • Older siblings

  • People over the age of 18 accompanying a minor

  • Phonecalls / texts / e-mails signed letters from parents

Exceptions for people who aren’t under the care of their birth parents.

• If a client under the age of 16 has been adopted or is part of a foster family, a letter of proof of guardianship is required along with photo I.D for the guardian and client.
This can be in the form of a certificate of adoption, or a letter from a sector of social work / court showing the person accompanying the minor is their legally appointed guardian.
• Typically we do not accept parental consent from grandparents, the exception to this would be if a client under the age of 16 is legally living under the care of their grandparent. Photo I.D is still required for the carer & client, and a letter showing proof of their guardianship.

If you have any questions about this subject. or relative information to help us make this easier for clients, please contact us before making an appointment.
