Agreement for Services: In consideration of the services of Iron Brush Tattoo and Body Piercing Studio, its corporation, owners, agents, employees, independent contractors, and all other persons or entities associated with Iron Brush Tattoo and Body Piercing Studio (collectively referred to as the “Studio”), I state that I am acting voluntarily, and I fully consent to the application of body piercing and body jewelry on my body and to any other actions of the Studio which are reasonably necessary to perform the body piercing procedure. The Studio does not recommend any topicals or numbing cream the customer may apply and assumes no responsibility or guarantees for their use.
Risk Notification: I am aware that the application of body piercing and body jewelry (hereinafter referred to as “body piercing”) entails risks to myself and I acknowledge that the Studio has informed me and advised me of these risks both orally and in writing. I understand that the risks described below, and the risks which have been discussed with me today may not be complete and that there may be unknown or unanticipated risks which may result in injury to me. I agree to assume responsibility for the risks identified below, as well as those risks which are not specifically identified. I fully understand that these risks, known and unknown, can lead to injury, including but not limited to infection, scarring, and reactions; allergic and otherwise. I understand that I may also be exposed to jewelry, aftercare products, soap, cleaners, and/or other materials including latex. Migration or rejection of the piercing may be possible. I understand that in oral piercings the jewelry may cause damage to the teeth or other oral structures. I understand that I may experience discoloration, swelling, indurations or excretion in the area of the piercing. I understand and acknowledge that body piercing is a permanent change to my appearance, and that it may leave a blemish or scar, and that my skin may not ever be restored to its pre-piercing condition even after its removal. The Studio has not made any representations to me regarding my ability to later remove or alter any such blemish. I understand the Customer assumes responsibility for all risks known and unknown.
I acknowledge that I have been given the full opportunity to ask questions that I might have about body piercing and the care and treatment of body piercing. I acknowledge that all my questions have been answered to my full and total satisfaction.
I hereby certify that my answers to the following questions are accurate and I understand that the Studio will rely upon my answers for the body piercing procedure. Description of Body Piercing procedure: Each client must completely fill out this Informed Consent, Release & Waiver for Body Piercing form and show proof of age. The body piercer will discuss aftercare of the body piercing and address any questions the client may have prior to initiating the body piercing. Sterile instruments and jewelry are set up for each client. The area to be pierced is cleaned with an approved cleaning product. A needle is inserted into the tissue, followed directly by the jewelry. Upon completion, the piercing is washed, and dressed as necessary.
Waiver of Claims: I hereby waive any and all claims for any sort of damages including but not limited to costs, expenses or attorney fees that I may have either known or unknown against the Studio and its successors, assigns, owners, agents, independent contractors, and employees, arising out of or connected in any way with body piercing or the procedures used to apply my piercing, unless said claim arises out the willful and gross negligence of any owner, employee or independent contract of the Studio. In the event that an independent contractor of the Studio acts willfully and is grossly negligent, I understand that the Studio is not responsible for said independent contractor’s actions. This Agreement shall be governed under the laws of the State of Nebraska.
COVID-19 WAIVER: I understand that I am opting for a service that is not urgent and not medically necessary. I also understand that the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. I further understand COVID-19 is extremely contagious. State and federal health agencies recommend social distancing. I hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Studio harmless and release the Studio from any liability whatsoever should I become infected with COVID-19 which may include but not be limited to claims for personal injury, loss of income, disability, illness and death. Furthermore, I understand that this Agreement is subject to the laws of the State of Nebraska and further agree that the appropriate venue for any dispute involving this Agreement shall be Lancaster County, Nebraska. Given the nature of the virus, I understand there is an inherent risk of becoming infected with COVID-19 if I proceed with this elective service. Accordingly I acknowledge and assume the risk of becoming infected with COVID-19, and any variation of mutation thereof, through this elective service and I gave my express permission for the staff at the Studio to proceed with the same. This consent applies to any follow up of additional services in the upcoming months. I understand that even if I have been tested for COVID-19 and received a negative test result, the tests may not have detected the virus or I may have contracted COVID-19 after the test. I will not hold that business and professional offering the service responsible for any liability related to COVID-19 and variation or mutation thereof. I understand that exposure to COVID-19 before, during, or after my procedure(s) may result in complications and/or delayed healing. I have been given the option to defer my service to a later date. However, I understand all the risks including those noted herein and I would like to proceed with this service. I have been offered a copy of this consent form. I understand the explanation and consent to the procedure(s). By signing below, I agree to notify my tattooer/piercer immediately if I experience any of the symptoms listed, or test positive for COVID19 in the next 3 days. I understand that the Studio, and its independent contractors, employees, staff and representatives cannot guarantee, with total certainty, that all risk of contracting an illness or virus such as Covid19, has been eliminated.
I have read, understood and accepted the terms and conditions of this Informed Consent, Release and Waiver for Body Piercing form and acknowledge that it shall be effective and binding upon myself, my heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and estate. I acknowledge that the information contained in this agreement represents the entire agreement and I am not relying on any oral, written, or visual representations or statements made by the Studio, including those in its brochures or other promotional material in the execution of this agreement. I Agree
