AI Summary
This bill amends the South Carolina Code of Laws to eliminate certain restrictions on the operation of tattoo facilities. Specifically, it removes the requirement that tattoo facilities may only provide tattooing and not engage in any other retail business. It also eliminates the prohibition on tattoo artists tattooing any part of the head, face, or neck. Additionally, the bill allows the Department of Health and Environmental Control to issue a license for a tattoo facility located within the prohibited proximity to a church, school, or playground, if the relevant institution expressly approves the issuance of the license.
