I have been going to anatomic for my piercings for over 5 years now and they never disappoint. All the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. They make each piercing experience as positive as it can be while getting a needle stuck through a body part. The selection of jewelry is incredible and they have something for everyone. 5 piercings with and could not recommend enough! read more

Anatomic Body Arts - New piercing! - Piercing Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

The shop is very clean and well organized, the greeter was very friendly and welcoming when I walked in. I had LOTS of questions for the piercer for aftercare and what to expect, whats normal, etc. and she was incredibly patient and knowledgable. She was also very honest and realistic when I asked about downsizing, telling me what she recommended and giving me different options so I could choose what worked best for me. read more

I'm here to echo all of the other great reviews- Anatomic is unlike any other piercing shop in all the best ways! Once you walk inside you can tell how much pride the owners have in their store with the beautiful pieces they carry and the cool aesthetic of the studio. All of the piercing rooms are nice and private, but also airy and very calming. As soon as I walked in everyone greeted me and one of the staff members took time to explain which pieces I could choose from, how they varied in price, and assured me they were all high quality and safe to use. I've never been to a piercing studio with so many options, especially beautifully unique pieces like the ones Anatomic carries! My piercer was so lovely, she talked me through the entire process, thoroughly explained all of the aftercare, and left me with a perfect nose ring. I'll absolutely be back soon! read more

This place is absolute garbage. They completely messed up my piercing after telling me and other we had the "wrong anatomy" gave me a hidden naval that I didn't ask for and after months it wouldn't heal, thankfully body tech is going to fix this problem for me after they have seen this problem from them a lot it seems. Do not go here it's absolute garbage. read more

Love them! Visiting family and got a new, beautiful nose stud while there. Took a few minutes to change out. Team is great! read more

This place is AWESOME. Friend and I got our septums done last December by Leann, who did an AWESOME job. Both of us were first timers with facial piercings and obviously very nervous, but the entire crew made us feel so comfortable the whole time. Leann walked us through every step, assessed our anatomy first, and walked us through everything beforehand and as it happened. We're both brass students in the SoM, so face stuff is very important to us. She was very patient and honest with our questions about the healing process, the nature of the piercing, and how it'd line up with our needs as musicians. Idk how evident it is, but my sweet spot is a little higher than most and my nostrils are apparently "a little tight", so Leann sent me out with it flipped up to help accommodate my scale juries the following week. She LISTENS, she's not just here to stab you and leave! My friend was also quite light headed after piercing, so she took the time between piercing and actually putting the jewelry in to breathe, chat, and get her feeling better. They also sent us out w lollipops lmao. I came back in May on a brief trip into town to buy some more jewelry because the experience was THAT pleasant. The sales staff I worked with from each experience (Megan and Carter, respectively) are equally as attentive, polite, and thorough. I always tip like crazy here because I genuinely love it! Not to mention the jewelry is top notch and will give you a better healed piercing. It's more expensive than that threaded garbage, but the quality of product and and APP certified service is worth EVERY PENNY! Can't say enough good things! read more

Anatomic Body Arts - after few days after in the uni chipotle lighting - Piercing Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

See all

I returned to Anatomic Body Arts to have my piercings checked up on and replace jewelry in a previous piercing with better quality pieces. Leann took a look at my lobes and conch, and she let me know that they were on the right track to being fully healed. While I haven't experienced any complications with my piercings, it was great to have a professional tell me that all is well. As for the new jewelry, I was excited to pick up a pair of Maria Tash rings for my second lobe piercings. (Side note: Maria Tash has such great jewelry, and I was so surprised to be able to find them in Gainesville. The shop does a good job of curating interesting pieces for their clients that are both classic and safe.) Leann sterilized the rings and installed them for me. The second lobe piercings have been healed for at least ten years, but I was happy that the shop took the care to sterilize new jewelry. I ended my visit with a chat about the placement of future piercings. If you're looking to get piercing but aren't sure where to start, ask! read more

Anatomic Body Arts - All jewelry purchased from Anatomic Body Arts. Leann pierced the third hole on the lobe and the conch. Love it! - Piercing Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

It has taken me a while to write this post, but I had such a terrible experience with this shop right before covid. I went in for a septum piercing and the woman who did the piercing was talking to my friend the entire time. Because of this, she pierced straight through my cartilage, creating a crooked piercing that hurt so incredibly bad that I passed out for a second. I was told the septum piercing should not really be that painful, but it was the most painful experience of my life. I have never passed out from anything, let alone a piercing or tattoo. The piercing never healed (because the septum piercing should NOT be pierced through the cartilage of the nose) and I eventually had to take it out. A waste of money, and honestly? A very traumatic experience. I do not like writing bad reviews, and it has been a while since I had this bad experience, but I really expected more from a shop that is certified with the Association of Professional Piercers. read more

I went in a few weeks back to get my 2nd lobe piercing re-pierced. Immediately, I felt comfortable in this bright, clean space. Kristen was able to kindly help me and actually realized that my hole wasn't actually completely closed! Yay! She then patiently helped me pick out an earring that matched my recently pierced conch. Once that was picked, she put it in and voila! I was good to go. Painless! Very nice staff and beautiful new location! Heading back there soon. Thank you!! read more

Anatomic Body Arts - Piercing Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Brought my thirteen year old for their birthday ear piercings and was extremely impressed with the staff, the facility, and the selection of jewelry. It's not cheap, but when dealing with piercings, I'm happy to pay for professionals who know what they're doing, an immaculate setting, and quality jewelry. I highly recommend and am so glad we found this local gem! read more

Clean shop, excellent customer service, and so many jewelry pieces to choose from. The girls here made me feel reassured and let me take my time to pick my jewelry and get comfortable. The shop was aesthetically pleasing and spotless. This will probably be the only shop I go to in Gainesville from now on because I was so impressed and had no complaints. read more

Super friendly and helpful! I wanted to see why my piercing was sensitive and make sure it wasn't infected, so I went in and they looked at it and gave me great advice. My ears and piercings feel great and I'm excited to go back and get more piercings because I trust they know what they're doing. Plus they have a huge selection of beautiful jewelry. read more

NEGATIVE. Bodytech has the SAME swarvoskis, better prices, more professional. I have over 10 piercings, spending about 2K on my body jewlry. And 45k on body modifications & cosmetic surgury. (My appearance isnt upscale. Im HUMBLE. Therefore look POOR to some people. Im a single, 30's, latina mom). I choose a $65 "flat swarvoski" nostril piercing. Because I know what I WANT in my NOSE. Over 2 people talking, The wife says to her husband, from the other room, regarding my jewelry, "is it an upgrade or just cubic circonia"? He said "no just cubic". (As if I couldn't hear them, pretending to be on my phone). I prepaid her tip $15. After my piercing, the wife/owner/piercer, said "it MAY LOOK BIGGER than the one you selected. You HAVE TO GET USED to the size". When I got in the car, the light shown on it and it WAS NOT a flat SWARVOSKI jewel. I had to go home because my mom was waiting in the car. A word of advice? These people are shady. I wouldnt trust them. With all my body jewlry & you think I wont notice a cubic circonia??!! Im a big believer in God and he says "It is mine to avenge". But whatever. My life is dope as hell with dumbies I pass by and see thier downfall due to greed. Love ya. read more

LeAnn is AMAZING! She answered my questions in FB messenger at 6 am about my piercings when my appointment wasn't until 9pm. The building is immaculate. I was able to see the sterilizers, the sterilized instruments, and the HEPA filters. I had no worries about covid-19 or other diseases. She has a perfect balance being knowledgeable and kind. I love the setup of all of the jewelry. It's so beautifully displayed. They can special order things for you. I wish more customers did reviews. I almost did not come because of that since I'm not from Gainesville, but I'm so glad that I did! I love that I was given several different options for everything. I can't wait to come back and get some beautiful jewelry when I'm healed. read more

I went in Saturday to get a conch piercing on the recommendation of a friend. I was originally hesitant to go anywhere in town after being frustrated with another shop in town over just a jewelry order because I was trying to support local. First walking in I was greeted by a young girl behind the counter, Leann and a man working the shop. The shop is super clean, laid out well with the space and the jewelry selection they have is impressive! I filled out the form and selected my jewelry. I went to the back piercing room with Leann and the girl from the counter that originally greeted me (who was super sweet and knowledgeable I feel terrible I didn't get her name!). As I was in the chair getting marked up we were all chatting. They were hilarious and super fun to talk with. They took their time, didn't make me feel rushed and treated me like an old friend. Leann went over aftercare before and after the piercing which is good so you remember. While getting the actual piercing it was completely painless and Leann was amazingly professional throughout the process. They sell their own piercing wash which I bought, it the same price as going to the store, saves a trip and you it's got the right ingredients...they don't mark it up crazy at all so I'd much rather give them the money for it. I had my piercing 2 days ago, it feels great, no problems, no swelling even (BONUS!). I can't wait for this one to heal and go back and get my next (I have a couple more conchs I want). I'm so glad I listened to the girls at Ciao Bella salon and checked this place out. You can tell from their website they've put a lot of effort into being an extremely reputable shop. For jewelry and piercings this is the only place I will go from here on out. read more

I actually went here to get my nipples pierced, and I'm so glad that I did because the staff were very friendly and answered all my questions (yes, even the stupid ones). The location is very clean, and they sterilized my jewelry inside a machine before use. Not to mention, there's a large collection to pick from and it's all internally threaded. It's been almost a whole month, and they're healing great! If I ever decide to get another piercing, I'd come back, and you can bet I'm recommending this place to all my friends. read more

I came in for new jewelry and a refitting from a previous piercing elsewhere and was very pleasantly surprised by my experience. When I walked into the store, I was greeted by a friendly face and the fellow behind the counter helped me pick out a new piece of jewelry. The store is quaint, clean, chic, and doesn't feel like your regular run of the mill grungy tattoo piercing shop. The store has a wide collection of beautiful jewelry to choose from as well. Leann, the piercer and I believe owner, took me back to fit me for my new jewelry and was very kind, knowledgeable, and professional. I am very impressed with this shop and will definitely be back for more! Thank you guys! read more

Being a new resident in Gainesville I was very unsure about where to go for all my piercing and jewelry needs, and I was very skeptical of a lot of places. I looked at a lot of reviews on Yelp and decided to give Anatomic Body Arts a try, and wow I could not be more pleased with the entire experience. They were so friendly with my before I even got there when I sent hundreds of questions over Facebook, the staff were so kind when I walked in the door and answered even more of my questions, and they made me feel so comfortable and at ease. If you are looking for a sign to give this place a try, take this as your sign!! 100/10 experience. I will most definitely be back in the future and I can't wait until then! read more

Of the four piercings I currently have, three came from Anatomic (septum, lobes and navel). I got my very first piercing (septum) on my 18th birthday at Anatomic and it was an amazing and pleasant experience! After getting my septum done, the rush of getting piercings completely overtook me, causing me to keep returning. The store is extremely clean and professional. They only do piercings, so you don't feel like you're sitting in the back of Bob's Tattoo shop with a tattoo artist who knows how to pierce a couple of things. The cost for every piercing service itself is pretty average, but the jewelry is what causes the store to be more expensive than others. Despite this, it is completely worth it as the jewelry is stunning and made of grade-A material. Kristen has done two of my piercings now (lobes and navel) and she was so nice and talked me through both of my piercings! I don't plan on getting any more piercings at the moment, but Anatomic is the only place I'd consider getting more! read more

Got a nostril piercing here and the entire experience was flawless. I made the mistake of going somewhere else for a septum and got pierced incorrectly. They recommended a new piece of jewelry that immediately alleviated any irritation I was experiencing. This is the only place I will ever go to for piercings. Their jewelry is of high quality and stunning and every person I've interacted with has been sweet and knowledgeable. They are also very clean and I felt comfortable visiting during COVID. read more

I had such a great experience getting my tragus pierced here! Jules spent over 20 minutes one on one trying out different pieces of jewelry (the most extensive and high-quality collection you'll find) over my ear to find what I liked best. Leann, the piercer, was extremely professional and educated me on what to expect. The area was cleaned with iodine and she used a sterile field. I wouldn't trust any other piercing shop after this experience being so superior! The prices are higher than other shops, but it reflects the quality of the jewelry and the professionalism and experience of the artists. read more

Awesome establishment very knowledgeable and friendly. The staff was very patient with me while trying to locate the right angle to place my new beautiful 18kt gold nose piercing in that I also purchased there. Thanks again for the love u guys showed. Keep uP the good work ladies read more

Unlike other places in town that provide piercing services and products, Anatomic has AMAZING customer service and a variety products. I was specifically looking for Neo Metal studs, and they had a plethora of options. Meagan was very sweet and happy to answer my questions. She was quick to put in my Neo Metal opal stud. If you want to do business with nice people who are knowledgeable, go to Anatomic. read more

I recently went to get a Helix piercing at this location. They are incredible! Kristen was so knowledgeable and friendly. My piercing looks amazing and it doesn't even hurt. If you are looking for a piercing, please don't waste your time anywhere else read more

Very professional and knowledgeable. This is the only place that I'll allow to do my piercings and they only use high quality jewelry!!!

Brought my daughter here to have her ears repierced after another local shop wouldn't listen that I wanted it done with a hollow needle. She hated the piercing gun at the other shop and, just like I expected, her ears never healed properly. We waited almost two years and then she wanted them fixed so we found Anatomic Body Arts and I could not be happier. I called to schedule an appointment and even just over the phone our experience was already exceptionally positive. Once we got there for her appointment everyone there was reassuring and explained everything from start to finish. Everything was sterilized right in front of us so there was no question as to cleanliness, though the shop itself is very well lit and obviously clean. No one made her feel even a little bad for being nervous - they told her that's normal and reminded her multiple times that if she felt scared or uncomfortable all she had to do was say the word and they'd stop until she was ready. Her piercer was extremely patient and talked *to* her about each step as it was going to happen, and when she could see she was struggling with nerves she asked her to tell her stories while she worked because it "helped her concentrate". This was such a good experience I'll be suggesting them to everyone I know for both themselves and their kids. read more

Got my septum piercing here two weeks ago and they did a great job! The staff were very helpful and well informed about the whole process. My septum is healing really well! I would definitely come back for anymore piercings. The jewelry was a little more expensive than I thought it might be, but there's no doubt that it's quality. read more

This was my second time going to this shop, and while my previous experience was good, I was extremely disappointed with how I was treated coming in to get a replacement piercing. I came in excited to purchase a pincher piercing which I had wanted for a while and was happy to put down 30 dollars on it. 30 dollars is a lot for me. I'm a self-supporting college student, so this was my only 'treat yo' self' purchase I could make for the next few months. I came in, found the type of septum I had wanted, and they found the one which was 'supposably' the right size for me. Leann, the owner, put the piercing in for me and it was painfully obvious the jewelry did not fit. The piercing looked ridiculous. It was way to small, and wasn't even visible. I was obviously upset and asked for a larger size, but was told I would have to purchase another piece. Of course, I didn't have the money to purchase another piece of jewelry, I had spent everything on a piece that looked like shit on me. I ended up walking out of the store $30 short, with the same circular barbells I had come in with, and a pincher I'll never wear. What's most upsetting to me is that I was expected to pay for THEIR mistake. If I had picked the size myself, I would have perfectly understood paying for my mistake. But I wasn't offered a replacement, refund, or even a simple apology. I work in the service industry, so I know how people will really try to milk the system for everything its worth. However, sometimes people genuinely mess up! Thats fine, but its the responsibility of the store to make sure a customer gets what they paid for. The whole experience made me feel cheated. I had walked into the store hoping to end my shitty day on a good note, but left feeling worse than before. I guess a shitty day deserves a shitty end. I don't think I'll be going back. read more

The staff at anatomic body arts was beyond amazing. They were very helpful when deciding what kind of piercing to get along with jewelry that would properly fit. They had answers for all of my questions and definitely knew their stuff. The place was very hygienic and they offer quality jewelry. The piercer did a great job she was fast and efficient. They as well made time for my friends even though it was Friday the 13th and they had all of their appointments booked for their special. I would highly recommend this establishment for anyone looking to get a piercing done! read more

Leann is amazing! She knew exactly what would work with my ear shape and made the whole experience pleasant and painless. The jewelry she has is amazing and she is so kind, helpful and patient. Really grateful to have found this place! read more
