I've had some of the best healing experiences when done by him and I will always keep going back!

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.

I called this shop to inquire about a cow tattoo, a two-by-two size, not too big but not too small…read more On the phone, I met Will, one of the tattoo artists at the shop. I explained what I envisioned, and he said I could come for a consultation the following day. I was told to call before coming so he was prepared to see me. On the day I was ready to come in for the consultation, I called, and due to busyness, I could not come in so instead, he asked me for my number so that I could send the picture of what I hoped to have done. He was quick to reply, which I much appreciated, and I was able to make an appointment. In addition, he answered any concerns or questions. The following day, I received a text to confirm the appointment, which I did, and he asked if I was available earlier, to which I replied with a yes. He said he'd let me know if a spot is available as soon as possible. Ultimately, there was, and I could come in earlier than my original appointment. Amazing! In addition, he sent me a picture of the linework via text, and it looked incredible. It matched the original image, and I was very impressed and excited. I arrived at the shop with my mother, who accompanied me. I instantly felt welcomed, and he quickly assisted me, handing me the paperwork. Afterward, he asked me where and what size I wanted it to be. He then printed the linework multiple times to ensure it was how I wanted. In my case, it was the cow's position, the direction it was facing. I was very grateful he had asked me how to position the cow because I would not have thought about that. Afterward, I was led into a room, where he placed the outline on me. He had done this multiple times to ensure the placement was straight and in the middle; I very much appreciated this, as I did not want a crooked cow. Once the placement was finished, he asked me to check it out to see how it looked in the mirror. He even recommended the mirror I was to look into, so I could have a better view, which was in the hallway. I was amazed when I looked into that mirror; it looked excellent. I then went back into the room, and he positioned the chair and told me how to position myself. I would say the tattoo process was about one hour. Throughout it all, he made sure I was comfortable and okay. He also told me what he would do before he did it. For example, before he sprayed me at the end of the tattoo, he told me the spray was cold, so I was prepared to expect the coldness. When the tattoo was finished, and it was time for me to get up, he ensured I got up slowly because I had been lying down for an extended period. I was then asked to look in the mirror and was blown away. Coming in, I was nervous that the tattoo would not be how I envisioned it, but it was the opposite; instead, it was much more than I envisioned. I was speechless. Back in the room, he took multiple photos of the tattoo. I could tell he took pride in his work. Afterward, he gave me instructions on caring for it and told me to contact him if any concerns or questions arose. Overall, Will was incredible. He was very caring and thoughtful and accommodated my mother and me. I am grateful for his talent and skills, which are portrayed by the work he takes pride in. I couldn't have asked for someone else to design this piece. The cow will remind me of this memorable experience forever.

We met our artist and she not only completely ruined it but gave my fiancee an infection on her arm. The tattoo was wobbly and slanting up her arm, and was quite literally botched. We went back the next day and met with the owner, "Gentle Jay" who made it clear that he stood by his employees work and if we wanted to make an appointment to get it fixed he could try but it would be "months" before he had an availability. The tattoo is quite literally unbelievably bad and was in large black ink on her arm. He laughed at us, cursed a lot, and said he really didn't care how we felt and stood by his artists. Quite honestly, odd guy with weird vibes who basically told us to kick rocks. We ended up going all over the island looking for other artists and every single one told us that this tattoo place is a scam that floats by on the idea of "Gentle Jay", who is a rude, overinflated boss. Every place recommended laser removal. Finally, we found Kings Avenue Tattoo in Massapequa who not only redid the tattoo, but had the tact to stand there while my fiancee cried and were all extremely kind. The tattoo is fixed, completely unnoticeable now thank goodness. I'm sure this place produces good work, but I haven't seen it. More than anything, just know that if you need a decent human who won't botch your skin and then laugh about it, maybe skip this place.

Whenever I wanted a new piercing he's the one I would go to, if I needed a jewelry change for my dermals he'd always say "I got you girl".

He takes his time with everyone and talks to them, it can definitely take awhile, lol but I know I will get that same amount of time and compassion. So I never minded! I have never met such a bright person like Brandon. He is just so special and I am so happy for his next adventure but I am going to miss him like crazy!!!

She is AMAZING at what she does and she got me to buy some stuff so from a sales POV go her ;) I decided to get 2 new piercings and a bunch of new earrings starters and ones when my holes heal.

As I walked in I was greeted by both a sales assistant and Rebeca the owner. Both were very friendly and accommodating, and within a few minutes, I had beautiful sparkly studs in my ears. I was very pleased with how meticulous Rebeca was on making sure the holes were even, she even pulled out a little ruler to measure. The piercing was pretty painless (it was my third hole so I'm kinda a pro.) I was really happy with my experience. It's a calm environment which I think would be good for kids. You are given a cleaning lotion and instructions how to keep them clean and infection free! I am pretty sure they do cartilage piercing on the ear also. Beside the ear piercing, they have a ton of cute accessories to browse. I ended up getting a necklace that have been searching for after seeing it on a girl at the Belmont Stakes. Thanks to Rebeca and Zaraz for a great ear piercing and a cute necklace to go with my summer wardrobe! Also love to keep my business in Lynbrook. I most def recommend Zaraz for ear piercing!
