Illegal and underage tattooing
Tattooing requires an environment with a high standard of hygiene.
Illegal tattooists or ‘scratchers’ often operate from home in unsuitable conditions and risk infecting their clients with infectious diseases.
Even if you were charged a fee for the tattoo, it still could have been illegal.
If you have information relating to an illegal tattooist you can contact us.
We have the power to seek a Court Order to seize tattooing equipment from any property and the tattooist can be prosecuted.
Underage tattooing
The minimum age for a tattoo is 18 (except for medical reasons). If you have information relating to underage tattooing, please contact Leicestershire Police on 0116 222 2222.
