       The Highland County Health Department regulates all tattoo and body piercing operations in Highland County.  Any individual who is operating a tattoo/body piercing parlor must be approved and inspected by the Health Department prior to operation.

       Tattoo and piercing operations are required to follow some very strict regulations in order to assure the safety of the public.  Main regulations deal with hand washing, needle handling, record keeping, age limitations, and sterilization procedures.
