I scheduled and appointment with my artist, Ariana for our session that we had a couple days later…read more On the spot we started going over what the elements were going to be to this very special tattoo I was getting. We were experiencing computer issues for the next two days and my emails weren't received until the morning of my tattoo. Thankfully we communicated really well and Ariana sketched my tattoo for me and adjusted it the same day. The tattoo was in memoriam of my younger brother who was killed in his early 20s very tragically. I knew that Ariana understood how much this tattoo meant to me. She took her time and it turned out better than I ever could have imagined. She's so gifted and such a talented artist. Flowers become alive when she's tattooing them, which was an important factor to me. The realism was exactly what I was looking for and she nailed it and still made it original. When I'm back in town I will return just to say hello and thank you again. Or if needed for a touchup but that's about it. She did an incredible job. I'm really pleased with her work. I would happily come back to Ariana and the shop again for additional tattoos. I loved the shop/parlor and everyone in it. Everyone is super talented on the staff. It's very clean inside, everything is opened, sterilized and fresh. All precautions and safety measure are taken by staff during this difficult time. Masks were always worn by all. Oh! I also thought they played AWESOME music the two days I had been there!! I still have more ink to get done so I'm saving some money up in a separate little fund for myself so that I can do it. Thank you Ariana and Sacred Arts Tattoo Bradenton for an amazing experience! I'll definitely be stopping by next time in town. I recommend this place to anyone and everyone looking to get a beautiful tattoo from a range of incredible artist. This place does not disappoint! Alexa

Do not judge a book by its cover!!…read more There is no other place in Bradenton that I would recommend for a piercing. I started coming here back in high school (I have not been in high school in a while) and have not looked back since. The staff were extremely welcoming and personable. They immediately greeted us on the walk in. The establishment is clean, even the restrooms. We walked in and immediately were able to get in with I believe her name to be Christina or Chrissy. She was great! My best friend and I came to Body Effects because on a whim she decided she wanted a piercing. I must say they are going to educate you. They ensure that you are knowledgeable of your piecing, rejection rate and best practices for longevity. They make sure you are as comfortable as possible and if you're having any doubts (which my friend did) they give you the space to decide what it is you really want without pressuring you. The lady (whose name as stated before I cannot remember) was extremely patient, she took her time, and she was noticeably big on privacy. She was also very sanitary. I love this! The pricing is great compared to a lot of the places in the area and did I mention that the jewelry is included in the price? Yes, that's right.

She was wonderful I would recommend her highly she made feel comfortable and explained everything…read more well

If his wife answers the phone, she is super nice and friendly too. She got me in so quickly I was a little surprised. It's not a month and 1/2 out like most places right now!

Came in for my husbands tattoo and I ended up leaving with one on me! Prices are reasonable, the view of the busy road I loved from the shop . Everything came super clean and I'm a new package. They followed all rules per the state of Florida. Which I love as a gemaphobe who worked in medical industry for years..
