Under Nassau County law, which services require tattoo or body piercing certification?

• A. All tattoo/body piercing services, including PMU, except ear lobe piercings
• B. Only traditional tattoos
• C. Only PMU
• D. Ear lobe piercings require certification

Answer: (A)

Certification is required for tattooing and body piercing in Nassau County, and that includes permanent makeup. The law explicitly covers all tattoo and piercing services, with one specific exception: ear lobe piercings do not require certification. This is why the correct understanding is that all tattoo and body piercing services—including PMU—need certification, except ear lobe piercings. The other options fall short because they limit the scope to just traditional tattoos or PMU, or incorrectly state that ear lobe piercings require certification.
