Ep. 14 "MN Body Mod Regulations"

About this episode

Dru Moon and CM Rutledge discuss the complexities of body art regulation in Minnesota.

In this episode, Dru Moon and CM Rutledge dive deep into the tangled mess that is the Minnesota Department of Health’s regulation of body art and modification. From outdated rules to confusing restrictions. Why are artists being policed by people who don’t understand the craft? Why is it nearly impossible to have a real conversation about meaningful change? Tune in as we break down the bureaucracy, share personal frustrations, and call for a smarter, more inclusive approach to regulation in the body art world. @ladylibertytattoo @dru.moon @cmrutledge
