Did South Carolina really change the legal age to get a tattoo, or are they going to soon?

i have heard multiple people tell me that either very soon the law will be passed so that 18 is the legal age to get a tattoo, not 21, or the law is already in effect. is this law really in the making or already happening? i searched it up via the internet and no websites have really been updated or useful. is it just a rumor?

The law is currently the same.

If you are under 21 it still requires parental consent in SC.

State legislators are now trying to pass a bill to reduce the age requirement to 18. As off yet, no law has been passed.

There are also many petitions regarding the issue circulating around SC and being forwarded to state legislators to lower the age requirement.

South Carolina the law is 21 without parental consent it is allowed if the minor is at least 18 years of age. Additionally, either notarized written consent must provided by the parent or guardian OR the tattoo must be applied in the presence of the parent or guardian.
