I had a terrible experience getting my nose stud changed to a hoop at this shop. For context, the…read morepiercing is 2 years old and had been fully healed for a year. The piercer tried to remove my original jewelry without checking the gauge and mistaked my threadless stud for a screw-top. She had so much trouble removing it that she used two pliers, causing unnecessary trauma to my piercing. Then, she eyeballed the size and inserted a hoop that was clearly too small, causing my nose to bleed further. She then replaced it with a second hoop, again without confirming the proper gauge. My piercing ended up bleeding throughout the entire night. Because the piercer seemed to lack experince, I sought a second opinion who confirmed the gauge was too large and the material wasn't hypoallergenic. I returned to the shop where they refused responsibility, saying they didn't need to confirm my guage because they "know their guages" and dismissed my concerns by saying "all piercers talk sh*t." They've refused to issue a refund despite the clear mishandling. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone looking for safe or professional piercing services.

I absolutely LOVE solid gold tattoo. Danielle has been doing my tattoos for YEARS. I refuse to let…read moreanyone else besides her, do my tattoos. Her vibe and personality is amazing, she's not heavy-handed on the needle, she takes her time and she's honestly very patient if you're needing a break or a moment to just get up and take a quick stretch. Needles are always sanitized, freshly opened. Target area is always cleaned and shaved before the session starts and Danielle always makes sure I'm super comfortable and ready before starting. Overall, everyone in the shop is very nice. Helpful and friendly but Danielle is just my personal go-too lady. I do believe the prices have increased since COVID but it is what it is. Quality over quantity. If you're ever in the Elmont area and looking for a great tattoo shop that you won't regret .. Stop by Solid Gold, they do accept walk-ins! Thank you S.G.T for years of amazing work

His patience and concern really won me over…read more When he was showing me the earrings for my baby girl, I was looking for a specific one that he didn't have in stock. He literally checked every single drawer to find it for me. After searching, he only found 1 and offered me a discount if I wanted to wait a few days for him to order it for me. Not only did he take his time to mark my daughter's ears, he double and tripled checked it before showing me. After my daughter was screaming, he told me to take my time to calm her and don't rush out. While I was calming her, we had a great conversation. I learned a lot about his background and love for piercing. He truly is the perfect person for this job. I would definitely recommend this spot. They're located in green acres mall, across from bath and body works on the main level.

When I made the conscious decision to pierce my nose more than 4 years ago, I thought it would be a…read morepiece of cake to change my nose rings once my piercing healed. Here we are 4+ years later and taking out nose jewelry feels like an operation itself. I've been coming to Sam to get my occasional change for as long as I've had my nose pierced and he's always been very professional. Never had an issue with my piercing since coming here. By no means is he gentle but he is efficient and he knows what he's doing. I don't really know other places that will change your piercing for you but this has been my go-to because it's always easy and his prices are reasonable. I will say that the operating hours are tricky because I have stopped by on several occasions during their open hours where they're not opened yet or are on break, but it's not the biggest issue. He's either very busy or things are slow and there's no telling sometimes.

I cannot overstate how welcoming and professional the team at South Shore is. After reading some…read morestellar reviews and looking at online portfolios I was genuinely impressed with what I saw of Jesse's work. I had a vision of what I wanted done as a tribute to my sons and from my initial inquiry through the finishing touches they helped me bring it to life. Communication was spectacular every step of the way - I shared an overview of what I was looking for through those first texts which paved the way for a terrific consultation where Jesse took the time to go over everything, let me know what he needed from me, and provided some great resources for picking out the right font, even providing helpful pointers for what to look for in different fonts so that it would continue to look great for years to come. On arrival day of Jesse already had a mockup ready to go and was more than accommodating with some minor changes I wanted done. I can't say the process was painless for obvious reasons but it was as smooth as one could ever hope for. The work was clean, the price was extremely fair, and I left with a piece I'm super happy with that has already received a bunch of compliments even though it's still in the healing phase. South Shore has my highest recommendation and has definitely won a repeat customer with me. Can't wait to do it again.

It's a permanent thing on your body so I would pay more ensure that it's done correctly anyway! The service here was amazing and everyone is incredibly knowledgeable and excited to work with you! I made an appointment here to get my navel re-pierced and chose this place due to their high ratings and reviews on Google. I can say with confidence that the accolades are well deserved! I had the pleasure of working with George to do my piercing. Upon walking into my appointment I was greeted by another employee who checked my ID and walked me through the process while George was getting ready for me. He was so friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, and welcoming! He warned ahead of time that navel is an anatomy- based piercing so there's a chance I won't be able to get it done after my consultation, in addition to aftercare and resources so that I'm well-armed with everything I need to know to take care of my new piercing. In the last I've had my navel done unprofessionally, and then again professionally about a few years ago so I was hesitant about the scarring. George did my consult and assured me that it was safe for me to get it done again. He walked me through the process and talked through exactly what he was doing for prepping and piercing so I didn't get anxiety in anticipation. My navel looks beautiful and it's healing so nicely!! I felt safe, assured that I was getting it done so professionally, and I love how all the info is displayed on the website. All piercers have IGs if you have follow up questions and they respond so fast! Highly recommend!!

I was just giving a piercing and was alittle nervous. The front desk staff was doing a tattoo what i thought was unprofessional since you know patrons are going to be there random times. He told me someone was going to do it and i should wait in the back for about 10 mins. It end up being 30 mins. And it was from the owner! Who looked shady. He was high off some drugs and was slurring alot i hesitated but already gave him the money before he started. I kept telling him repeatedly what i was getting and he just walked away to talk to his employees and started sweeping. At this point i was getting frustrated. But he said sorry i dont like mess. Fine. Once he set up he dab alot of alcohol on my face and mouth felt numbed he kept being rough i told him okay thats enough. And once he started to pierced i bleed alot and he sprayed some bactine on in my nose and it started burning! This man is nuts and shouldn't even have a business. Never going back or recommend. This is why i stay out of queens i prefer other boros.
