Let me start by saying how much I despise needles!!! However, I was interested in getting a daith…read morepiercing (for quite some time now) & lately, I have been wanting to really get it done. I spontaneously went to Hydravolve Studios because I was nearby, it had good reviews online and I wanted to check out styles, prices, etc. I met with Shannon who was just finishing up with a client & happened to be available the remainder of that evening. She went over everything with me and showed me the earrings. It was way too plain for me and the only downfall - they don't have a good variety to choose from in stock. If you wan't rhinestones/more bling or a specific style, etc., you'll need to order it with her, wait for it to come in and then go back to get your piercing. With the fact that I have been contemplating getting this piercing done for a long time, I knew I was ready to get it done right then and there..but also wanted something with bling. Lucky for me, Shannon was able to find an earring with a "little" bling and told me it was available since the person who ordered it, after a month or so, never came back. I decided to go for it and so glad I did. I did tell Shannon to not show me the needle she was going to use or anything because I'd probably run out of the room lol Shannon was very informative; told me everything she was doing, step by step. She was very clean, very nice and super gentle. It happened so quickly with one deep breath. After she was done, she went over in detail on clean/care instructions. I would definitely recommend Shannon. She was great!!! You do have to reach out to her via email and make an appointment.

I came in here a little while back to have the piercer remove a captive hoop from my nose (nostril)…read moreand to put in a temporary stud. I'll keep it succinct- The guy who was supposed to do the work was clearly high on something. He was stumbling, had slurred and disjointed speech, etc. I should have walked out right then, but against my better judgement and due to a time crunch, I stayed hoping he'd be able to get the job done. Needless to say, it was pretty unpleasant. He did a pretty good number on my nose, more blood and discomfort than there ever should have been (aka, none. The piercing is over a year old and was not bleeding prior to this). To boot, while he was trying (and failing) to get the temporary stud in, the guy drooled on my shoulder. Yes, you read that right- Drooled on me. At the end of this experience, the hoop was removed and the temporary stud was put in backwards at my request because it was pretty apparent that the guy was not going to be able to get it in from the inside. Figured I'd cut my losses. I let the owner know and he told me that the guy was coming from getting a tooth pulled, and might have still been impacted by anesthesia. Extending the benefit of the doubt... maybe that was the case. But regardless, a tattoo artist or piercer should not be working on clients when impaired to the extent that they can't maintain their balance and they're drooling on clients. On a positive note, I can say that the owner was very pleasant to speak with and was very receptive to the feedback I gave after I left; he seemed genuinely concerned and said he'd go check on the guy. That said, there are far better places to get work done.

I cannot recommend 12 Oz Studios in Brooklawn, NJ enough - and Tami Rose as an Artist. I went in…read morefor a simple sketch - a sketch of my son's who passed recently - so, simple but incredibly meaningful. Not only do I LOVE the tattoo, the care, attention to detail & compassion that Tami Rose gave, was just as important. It was so evident how important it was for her to, 'get it right', while clearly explaining what the craft can & cannot do - long term. I'm so grateful. In addition, hearing the way she spoke of 12 Oz Studios & the positive culture - especially for women - was So great to hear and another reason to give this place a shout out. Please stop in, check them out! 12 Oz Studios Tattoo & Piercing - Brooklawn & Deptford. I know I'm already planning my next one!!

Everlasting Art Tattoo has been a staple in the UCity neighborhood for over 25 years!…read moreWhen I was a resident of UCity back in the 90's (whew..seems like a lifetime ago) I became familiar with this shop and they did my one of my earliest tattoos! Eric...Anthony...Christian and now AJ are such professionals and they always make you feel comfortable in the shop! Now with COVID guidelines in place..they do a great job w/mask wearing...hand sanitizers and socially distance regulations! I had an idea pre-Covid for my Tattoos..but after I got my vaccine...I was ready to move forward with my plan! I allowed the new guy..AJ to take a shot...glad I did...he was patient with my indecisiveness at times and was able to bring my vision to life! I came back several times for completion and each time...AJ took his time and was friendly and professional throughout the process! I am very satisfied with the outcome! Some 20 years later...Everlasting Art still got it! Book in advance is my suggestion with any of these guys --they will get the job done!
