    I've been going to Infinite Piercing Studio for years, so this was another visit with a team I…read morealready know and love with a chill vibe. I came in to have my retainer removed and decided to switch things up with a new hoop-style nose ring. Juniper checked me in and was awesome about walking me through my options. Gold clasp wasn't in my price range, but I found a really cute silver hoop with stones that worked for me and was within my price range. Then my buddy Zach took care of the actual switch--removing the retainer and putting in the new hoop. He got the size just right, and I absolutely love the new look! Hau checked me out, and once again, the whole experience was easy and fun. I really appreciate the entire team at Infinite. After all these years, it still feels good to walk in and know I'm going to be taken care of. Shout-out to Juniper, Zach, and Hau! Thanks for another great experience.

Their online booking system is easy, it's clear, and you have a general idea of what to expect from your appointment and the cost. Bookings are a few weeks out because they're quite a busy shop so plan in advance. The team is super friendly and greets you when you come in. It's a very welcoming staff and space. They walk you through the process, have you pick out your jewelry and sign a few forms, tell you the total price then you wait in their small waiting area until you get called back to your room. Once you get called back, their rooms are super clean and their piercers are very knowledgeable. They do what you need to feel comfortable, whether that's being walked through step by step of what's going to happen or going in completely blind. The rooms and materials are clean and they set you up for success for healing your piercing.

The staff is super friendly, and the shop takes their service very seriously. I show up at my allotted time (maybe 10 mins early cause there's always paperwork). I get all signed in. The person running the desk is usually pretty busy. They seem to get a lot of calls and bookings when the shop is full of artists and folks. When it's my turn I get escorted back to the artist or they come and get me in the cute little waiting area. There's clearly a lot of time taken to keep the shop clean here. I've seen so many single use sanitary needles and paper towels among other things. Everything gets wiped down before I get going. The artists do a good job of making sure you are ready and super happy with the sizing and placing. One of my tattoos I actually asked to be moved three or four times and I felt like a butt but the artist was super chill about it. I am not the person to send back a restaurant dish if it's wrong and it took some practice to tell artists to resize or relocate an outline. During the tattooing process I get asked a good number of times if I'm comfortable or if I need to stand up and shake it out. They do have water and snacks if you forget, but you should always eat! I will always return to this shop. It's a third-place for me for sure. I always feel like family.

    I regret coming here. I came for a daith & helix and it got messed up 3x. Let me explain…read more Got overcharged for jewelry I didn't buy and I had to go back for a refund & they're hella overpriced. Shannon did the helix & daith & it was so bad my ear hurt & swelled up and Judy had to take them out & redo them & taking them out hurt like bloody murder. She said she must've been having a "bad day" to miss BOTH so bad. How bad? I was having headaches & pain nonstop on top of the swelling & bleeding in just ONE WEEK (& I never swell or bleed from my 9 previous piercings). The daith prevented my ear from being touched at all even from the back and swelled up & stuck out. An X-Ray & MRI showed my ancient helix next to the new one and the old one was perfectly straight & perpendicular to my ear but the new one was so crooked it made a "Z" between top & bottom helix & I couldn't heal from it. From the front, the top 2 were close together but super spaced from the bottom & the back was completely the opposite. Judy redid the daith after letting it heal for a month & it was perfect. She redid helix after giving it a month to heal & it was crooked again. Same angle but not as bad. She said "it's just your ear". Excuse me?? A skilled professional should be able to compensate & my other 2 helix piercings were perfectly straight except for THAT one. They hit the dot they marked but the angle made the front & back look completely the opposite from each other. I'm not paying for another MRI & X-Ray to prove the redo was crooked again. I already saw it from the 1st one & my drs said it was messed up even though that wasn't the point of getting those tests done. I met with the piercing manager Samantha & she said it "didn't matter where it comes out the back as long as the front mark was hit". HUGE red flag That's the reason the helix Shannon did was fucked up & I couldn't heal from it (& I'm a fast healer) & it hurt like death to get it taken out. The angle is critical for a perpendicular hit & swift healing. She also said "I know I can't please you" because she swears the piercing Judy did was straight but off by a millimeter & also blaming my ear & said she's been "doing this for 13yrs" like it's the end all be all. Girl. Just because you've been doing it for some time doesn't mean you're any good. That goes for any profession. And if any other job was "having a bad day" and missed 2 of 2, I'd say they can't do their job. She was hella rude about it with a high & mighty attitude too. No apologies or refunds, just them blaming the client & excuses they're having a bad day. And she acted like she was doing me a favor not charging me for having the piercings removed when it was her people who messed up. THE ATTITUDE OMG. Sam & Shannon have the same nasty attitude. Judy was the only nice one. No one deserves to be treated like that especially a paying customer. I had to go to Urgent Care to get this treated, go on antibiotics, & go to my PCP. Too many drs visits. This place is a nightmare. Avoid it. Literally a rip off. They've ripped off & overcharged other people (I was told so in the shop) & go read the other reviews. Go ANYWHERE ELSE. You have many choices. Save yourself the time, money, aggravation, & physical injuries & pain & then getting blamed for it while getting excuses. A piercing from a piercing gun at the mall is perfectly straight (with X-rays as proof) & no excuses. Me, my brother, & his twins have never had problems even after many years & decades with our piercings and it costs a fraction of the price. Again, go anywhere else but here. Paying more (A LOT MORE) doesn't equate to better service.

I loved this piece in black and gray but then I got some other neo-traditional color tattoos and felt this was being upstaged a bit so Jessi touched it up with some color for no charge. She's a talented artist that can draw and tattoo in a variety of styles, she has a killer studio with tons of cool art, and her playlist is straight fire. You're gonna love your tattoo and you're gonna be glad you asked Jessi to put there.

The space is clean and welcoming and the staff is very friendly and honest about expectations for specific tattoos (ex: finger tats!!!). The shop minimum is $120 and they are cash only. They have an ATM onsite and also accepted digital transfer like venmo and zelle to save on the fees. My most recent visit was about 2 weeks ago, when I walked in to have finger tattoos touched up. They were originally done out of the country and had started to fade a lot, with one almost disappearing. I walked in on a Sunday around the time that they opened and was able to go straight down. My artist did a great job in a short amount of time. I will definitely return to Floating World for future tattoos!

    Twelve Ounce Studios may not be the cheapest option out there but it also isn't the most expensive…read more I searched online for several months for shops near me in South jersey - I finally chose Twelve Ounce for two reasons: 1) The social media and website were consistently updated 2) I could walk to the shop (an auto seatbelt would rub the area I wanted inked) While option two may not be important to everyone, it was a concern for me. I was last inked in the late 90s and in a different city and different body location so it had been a while for me. Also, they are easy to access off of US/NJ 130 north - just a few hundred feet north of the Brooklawn circles on Rt 130 north. I had the first appointment on a Thursday afternoon and Tami G did my work. I can not say enough for how great an experience she made it. Not only did she take the simple phrase I wanted to a work of art she presented options I had not considered. The shop interior is clean and 'hip' - whatever that means - and instills confidence.. I did have to wait a while as Tami developed art for me and then the stencil but it was time well worth the wait. Tami also encouraged me to critique placement and size - neither I had an issue with as she has an excellent sense of proportion and location. There was another client in the shop with me as I waited - his artist also consulted several times and listened to what the client wanted and revised the artwork several times. As other reviewers have posted, the private rooms are greatly appreciated. Do check out the work Tami has done on her own self - it is excellent. I will be returning to Twelve Ounce Studios for more work. The staff is personable, creative and professional. You will not be disappointed!

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!!
