Bodystain Tattoo & Body Piercing Studio

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo does amazing work. So happy with my leaves!

Experiencia fantástica: I first went there to get my nose done again and ended up setting up an appointment with big jack... I've had a lot of tat artist and Big Jack is right on the top.... did my cover up in 2024 and still look good today

Experiencia negativa: VERY BAD SERVICE! I tried coming in to get a piercing not only did she turn me down, but when I tried to buy the jewelry she told me that she will not sell me a jewelry unless I pierce with them. Seems like my business is not wanted here. Also, I don’t understand if the jewelry is $25 why is she charging me $75 to pierce?

Experiencia fantástica: Whoever just shot my tag is a beast. I would recommend her to anybody. But for 250, very reasonable prices too! The girl with beauty marks on her arm

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to this shop for over 25 years and I have never left disappointed. Mello and all his crew are AWESOME. I have recommended this shop to several people and they also were very satisfied. THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK. YOU ARE APPRECIATED.

Experiencia fantástica: Got my septum pierced here, piercer was incredibly friendly and professional, definitely the best piercing experience ive had. Will definitely be going here for my next!

Experiencia fantástica: Got my septum pierced by Katie she was super amazing , quick and talked me through everything definitely going back every time , prices are pretty reasonable for the jewelry absolutely amazing 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: I got tattoos there 25 yrs ago, and they still look great.

Experiencia fantástica: I got my ear and nose pierced by Katie, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly personable, friendly, and knowledgeable—she made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her to anyone considering a piercing!

Experiencia fantástica: I came here for a couple of piercings- the shop manager Emma was so kind and patient with us. Katie did beautiful piercings on us both! I strongly recommend coming here and will definitely be back

Experiencia fantástica: I had four ear piercings put in by Shae. Their staff answered all of my questions beforehand. The procedure was sanitary and professional. The price was better than the other piercing shop I checked out. I'm very happy with the placement and Shae made it nearly pain free. The vibes and music were good. I amused my wife and the staff by declining to look at the piercings when they were done. I looked about an hour later and I love them.

Experiencia fantástica: I get all my piercings thru bodystain...I never had a bad experience. Their the best!

Experiencia fantástica: I received my first tattoo today from Ailene. I was very nervous. She was very kind and explained the whole process. I would highly recommend her. Thanks for making my experience great.

Experiencia fantástica: I live in Dayton, OH and was referred to this shop by a friend. Awesome experience, booked a full day with Carmelo 11/25/24 and could not be happier! He is extremely talented and very helpful with the design process. Already booked another full day in December 2024!

Experiencia fantástica: The receptionist and piercer were so helpful and lovely. I brought my daughter in for a nose piercing for her birthday. She is afraid of needles but was put at ease. The environment was clean, sterile, everything was explained so well. I'm so thankful we came here!

Experiencia fantástica: I have gotten two tattoos and most recently one piercing at this location. I have gotten several other cartilage piercings at multiple locations and I’ve had the best experience with this one in particular. It has been two weeks, and I haven’t even had any pain or inflammation!

Experiencia fantástica: went in for an impromptu eyebrow piercing about an hour before closing, with no appointment. i wasnt sure if theyd people able to fit me in but they got me in and out no problem! the receptionist was very sweet and so was my piercer, katie. i highly suggest going in and getting pierced by her, she kept me calm and talked me through the whole process. all in all very happy & would suggest :)

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place, my tattoo artist, Ailene ,is amazing. She is so talented!! Everyone there is so nice and funny. Everytime i go there i have a wonderful experience!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The ladies here are always so amazing and kind! Especially Katie! I always have a great piercing experience!

Experiencia negativa: the worst customer service you can imagine. I don't know if it's all the people who work in this place, but the receptionist didn't even let me speak and had a terrible attitude. I can't even see the artists' work, why does this lady serve you in a terrible way? I definitely wouldn't back to this place just because of the receptionist. There are probably good artists working here but if they serve you this way just for asking if they are open or not. They should definitely improve customer service.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great time getting stabbed at Bodystain! The piercer Katie was amazing, so busy and managed to navigate and take care of walk ins and scheduled people. Very clean environment and I will be going back!

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience having my daughters nostril pierced. Katie was fast but took the time to explain everything that was happening and was thorough with after care instructions. Will for sure be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing piercing experience with Katie!!! I stopped in as a walk in and I am so happy I did! The receptionist as well as Katie were so helpful and wasn't annoyed with all my questions lol Katie is the best and will make you feel so comfortable and she is very knowledgeable! I will be back again and again!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff are very professional, I went in for new piercings and they were very informative and helpful in making sure I got exactly what I wanted. They definitely care about you and your well-being while you are in their shop as well

Experiencia fantástica: I took my daughter in for a tattoo, Baby Jack was extremely professional, and his line work was impeccable. Was very impressed with the staff there. I'll definitely be going in for a tattoo there. Thanks, everyone, for your work.

Experiencia fantástica: Katie is the absolute best piercer ever! She’s done all of my body piercings and I have never had a bad experience. She is very calm and talks you through everything step and explains everything she is doing. I 100% recommend Katie and Body Stain for piercings. They have the best prices and a wide selection as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Katie is the best! She’s done all my piercings and can’t see myself going anywhere else. Definitely couldn’t recommend her enough!!

Experiencia fantástica: Got a nose piercing here and it was such a good experience!! I was so nervous! My piercer was Shea, she is AMAZING!!! She was so patient with me, very gentle, friendly and professional. She explained the whole process & made me feel calm. Quick and easy! You're definitely in good hands here. Highly, highly recommend bodystain!! Prices were on point too!

Experiencia negativa: I HAD THE WORST EXPERIENCE HERE TODAY! Be careful who you let pierce you. I’ve been pierced here 3 times. Great experiences each of those times with either Sarah or Katie. Today was completely different, a horrible experience. I came into to get my nostril jewelry changed, I was serviced by SHEA who I have never met before. We get into the room and I explain to Shea that I want to change my jewelry because I think I’m having a bad reaction to my current jewelry and my piercing has become infected & painful. She giggled and says “Yeah” which I thought was very odd considering that she is a piercer and didn’t look at my piercing or even offer to tips to help it heal. She didn’t offer anything. I brush that off. She then proceeds to remove my jewelry and I immediately started wincing and my eyes were watering because it was extremely painful. She was handling my nose so roughly even though I mentioned it was painful. She is struggling to get my jewelry out with her hands (no tools!!) She stops and I asked her if my jewelry was out, she tells me no and grabs something then is finally able to remove my jewelry. I was in so much pain. She then grabs my new jewelry and is putting it in and once again she’s struggling to get it in and being EXTREMELY rough and not telling me what is going on at all. At this point it hurts more than actually getting my nose pierced. You would think she would be more gentle considering the information I gave her when I first came in. So I’m just sitting there in extreme pain to the point that I asked her if we can stop for a second because it hurts that bad. She tells me “One second it’s almost in” Are you kidding me??? She gets the hoop in and lets me go and tells me to let her know when she can close it. I asked her for a tissue for my watery eyes and she told me she did not have any??? Unbelievable! I was starting to feel light headed and my whole left side of my face was hurting. She asked me if I was okay and I told her no i feel light headed. I sat there taking deep breaths until I could tolerate her tugging on my visibly bloody and inflamed nose. She closed the hoop and I sat there until I felt safe to get up. I look in the mirror and there is blood all over my nose. I asked for something to clean my nose up and she tells me there is saline solution available at the front for $8. I clarified that I just wanted something to wipe the blood from my nose and she tell me no i don't have anything it’s probably best to just leave it alone! How can you tell me that you don’t have anything to clean blood in a tattoo and piercing shop I have been here before and have never left bloody after a piercing appointment. Matter of fact, I know I have been wiped off after being pierced because I was just here a week and a half ago. It’s been about 1.5 hours since I left and my nose is still throbbing. That was absolutely the WORST experience I have ever had regarding piercings. Do not book with her.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here for 20 years (possibly with a large gap in there) for tattoos and piercings. This shop is extremely clean and professional. Everyone there always makes me feel welcome when I come in for an appointment. I've been using Baby Jack for over a year now and he is always great at making my ideas come to life on my skin, usually without me even giving him any visuals

Experiencia fantástica: Have had multiple sessions with Shawn and he does a fantastic job. Prices are great too! Highly recommend.

Experiencia negativa: All of my piercings I have gotten here have been crooked. The stencil dots looked even, after asking for them to be moved like 10 times, but then once pierced they now look uneven/crooked. I got both nipples pierced, crooked. The side of my nose pierced, not even with the other side. And I just got my other eyebrow pierced and it is not even with the other one. It is also badly bruised, which had never happened to me before with the 13 other piercings I have. I am not surprised it is bruising, as the piercer spent a long time fidgeting with it and I noticed her hands shaking a bit. SUPER sweet lady and great prices which is why I went back multiple times. Coming back after not being super happy with the results is on me though!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent! I walked in without having an appointment, and everyone was very attentive and friendly. The artist was so patient and took time to help me figure out the placement of my tattoo. He copied EXACTLY the script I brought in.

Experiencia negativa: I've been going for 20 years and went yesterday and got a small tattoo NO shading at all 6 cursive small letters and it's messed up and way over charged me 140$ I'll NEVER go back

Experiencia fantástica: I came in today for a piercing removal. Staff was nice and customer service was excellent. Place was also very clean: Very pleased. I will definitely be back for another service.

Experiencia positiva: Very clean and very friendly. Took my daughter to get her ears peirced for her 10th birthday. She loves them, and I am so glad we decided to skip out on Claire's and get them done right!

Experiencia fantástica: I got my nose piercing done here and it’s one of the only piercings on me that has not rejected and the studs are super cute. My sister then went for her belly button (shea did both) she was so sweet and made her feel comfortable and made sure she was happy with it before leaving. I then came back to get a beautiful memorial arm tat and Shawn did amazing he made the original pic look even better and I couldn’t be happier with it, can’t wait to come back for more!

Experiencia fantástica: Katie made me feel the most comfortable I’ve ever felt getting a piercing. I highly recommend her, and this place!

Experiencia fantástica: Being raised in Columbus it was understood even in the 90's this shop was a place that was solid. I have been a customer here for over 5 years now and have nothing but great things to say. First, there is zero judgement for ideas that are brought up. You get real answers and perspectives on the artistic design. Next, it's comfortable. From the moment you stroll in, you are respected. I've watched a diverse community stroll in through my sessions. Each one is greeted with the same respect. Last, as a customer it doesn't have to be a one tattoo experience. As my life changed, so did the ink, yet the common denominator was the artist Carmelo and the other artists he surrounds himself with. There is a reason this shop has been around for years. That speaks volumes.

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo is by far the best, and most professional tattoo artist I've had the pleasure of working with. I will only use and recommend him in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo is hands down one of the best tattoo artists ever! (Which is why his calendar can be booked 3 months out at most times.) My sister referred him to me & now I’ll only schedule tattoo appointments for my husband and myself with him…and we live in North Carolina! So I have to be sure to get an appointment with Carmelo (usually for my husband) every time we come home to visit now. He’s just that great!! I’d highly recommend him to anyone and everyone even thinking about getting a tattoo. Not only will you not be disappointed, it will be so much more than you could ever imagine!

Experiencia fantástica: Bodystain has been around since the late 80’s and still killing it with their artwork. As important as quality is, their shop is always clean, good atmosphere and every artist is friendly and passionate about what they do…that’s very important when choosing who to go to. I’ve known one of the artists for almost 20 years and he’s as genuine as they come, their prices are fair, I always have fun while I’m getting work done and never have I left unhappy. That’s what keeps me coming back!! 5 stars is not enough for this shop and it’s crew!

Experiencia fantástica: Always just perfect. Clean, compliant & so easy to work with. Carmelo is one of the finest tattoo artists I've ever seen. I just had my first piercing done here (only doing nostrils) and it was medical grade care. I was pierced by Sarah , who was so great. Gentle, honest funny & frankly, way cool. I will always go here for my tattoos & piercings. 4 stars always. I also always use BodyStain for my tattoos as well. All of the artists are brilliant & the tattoos are serious art. I never mind waiting & planning especially with the level of personal service you receive. Just the best. I've received two tats & two piercings.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had the pleasure of being tattooed by two of their artists so far and I’m looking forward to getting tattooed by more of their people. In the dozen times I’ve been there, I’ve never seen anything but great, personalized work. Staff is friendly and fun to talk to I’m always excited to go in there.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been following the work from this shop for 20+ years, always treated with kindness and respect. Don’t expect to walk in and get tattooed same day, these guys are awesome artists and work on appointments, if they have a day free for walk ins the will let you know. I won’t work with any other shop in Columbus, and have many friends who feel the same. Honest, kind, professional, talented and patient. No place I’d rather go.

Experiencia negativa: My friend and I came in the shop twice in one weekend trying to get a tattoo. The front desk lady was nice but they never seemed to have time to fit us in as a walk in which is understandable but when we asked if she could give us a time or appointment she made it seem as even that was not doable and she took down our phone numbers on a list that she had started for service and stated they would call us when they had time. It’s been about four weeks now and we have yet to receive a phone call. I understand if a walk in could not be taken at the time but we tried to set an appointment time and it felt as if we were blown off and told an appointment is not needed and to just keep checking back. When we came back the next day that is when our phone numbers were taken but as of now no call has been received. Edited to add my reply to the business owner’s response: I understand walk ins are not guaranteed which is why I stated in my first response that I completely understood not being seen when I walked in, but my problem is how it was handled. My friend and I were never instructed to visit your website to schedule an appointment with a deposit. We never have visited your website so we were not aware but I would think your employee would’ve mentioned it when we asked to make an appointment instead of making it appear as if we just have to keep checking back and then taking our phone number down stating we would get a call. We have already went to another studio and got our tattoos done there, but as a business I think it is important for your employees to be able to provide basic information as you provided in your response and not take down a phone number that they probably truly have no intent in using.

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo is the best he has been taking care of my tattoo needs for over 20 plus years . The business is always clean and service is always great

Experiencia fantástica: Been coming here since I was 17 and they’re amazing! Carmelo is the owner & wonderful as always. A VERY light handed artist.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here for over 20 years. Carmello and his staff are amazing, and I have yet to see anything but exceptional work walk out of the door. I recommend anyone looking, to go check them out!

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo is fantastic and very professional. All of the artists in the shop do great work. Making appointments is easy and I would much prefer that than a walk-in because I know what I'm getting and that I'm getting it on time.

Experiencia fantástica: Have spent 30+ hours in this shop for both tattoos and piercings. All staff has always been great. Front desk is super helpful with scheduling and answering questions. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I was in on Thursday and received a tattoo. Bodystain is a really great place, Carmelo and the Staff are super Amazing! I will definitely recommend this Tattoo Shop to others.

Experiencia fantástica: I've gotten well over 20 hours of work done at Bodystain, as well as a few piercings. Everyone has always been extremely welcoming over the years. Most of my work has been done by Carmelo, and he has always been great to work with. He will take the time to work through ideas and ensure you are getting the best quality tattoo. His dedication to ensuring you walk out with a high quality piece of art, that will hold up over time, is the main reason I have been a repeat customer over the years.

Experiencia fantástica: This was the second time I have been tattooed at this shop. The first time was 12 years ago and by the same artist, Carmelo. And just like the first time I was greeted as soon as I walked in. The shop is extremely clean and very laid back. The artist worked with me and was very patient while we worked out the design that I had wanted for years. The end result of the design was spot on of what I've had in my mind that I wanted. The tattoo process was great. He was quick and left nice crisp lines. I have a couple more secession book to finish the work, but I love it already. The owner told me that the shop has been open for more the 20 year continually. That says a lot for any business.

Experiencia fantástica: I always go to Bodystain, specifically to the owner Carmelo, but all of the artists do a phenomenal job. Always professional, friendly, and they all make you feel very comfortable there. They’re usually booked up far out, but there’s a reason, they are the best artists in town, they’re worth the wait. I recommend them to everyone that asks about my tattoos, which I get a lot because they’re done so well!

Experiencia fantástica: I had my first tattoo done here, and the whole experience was great, even though I was VERY nervous. Carmelo eased my mind and was able to incorporate several things I wanted into one elaborate tattoo, because I told him this was the only one I ever wanted. I didn’t make it easy on him, but he delivered and it’s amazing. I simply scheduled an appointment and went in knowing what I wanted. I was in and out in a lot less time than expected. My son wants one now, and I know that’s the only place I’ll trust. Thanks again!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve had several tattoos done by Carmelo. He’s the best of the best. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for a tattoo. Their shop is very clean, front desk workers and other tattoo artist are all friendly. Our entire family goes to Bodystain when they want a tattoo. We recommended them to any family or friends wanting a tattoo. I get constant compliments on my tattoos Carmelo has done. They’re very busy, but have easy online scheduling. Highly recommend this shop. They’re the best in Franklin county!

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo is a genius! The store is clean. The staff is super friendly and the vibe is exactly what you want when you're getting ink. Got matching tattoos and Carmelo was a genius with the needle. Don't be put off if you have to make an appointment--it's totally worth the wait (and a busy store tells you they are good at what they do!)! Bestie and I got matching tats (Houdini's Alphabet) and the line work and consistency is second to none!

Experiencia fantástica: The best in Columbus by far, with artists that listen to your exactly what you want. Appointment making process is so easy on the calender, highly recomend! Shop is clean and comfortable! 5 stars!

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo and his team are amazing. He’s done all 10 of my tattoos and could not imagine going anywhere else. 100/10!

Experiencia fantástica: I got my 1st tattoo back in 1998 at bodystain. And it still looks like the day I got it. They are by far the cleanest shop I have ever been in and i have traveled the world. The work they do is by far the best in the lower 48 if not the milky way. You won’t be disappointed.

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo has been fantastic to work with. Clean shop, great design aesthetic, clean work, and fast! This shop is our go to for any tattoo ideas.

Experiencia fantástica: Carmelo and his staff are beyond amazing. I am a multi-repeat customer and have referred many people to this shop. Not only are the other artist and piercers fantastic but Carmelo is a true master of his craft. Everyone is kind and always willing to help. Not to mention the cleanliness of the office and you can truly feel/see how much everyone loves working there. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo or piercing, please visit this shop... you will not regret it!

Experiencia fantástica: I got my first tattoo here when I was 18, im 27 now and still my favorite! Carmelo was awesome and very easy to work with! Made the first time process fun and not scary at all! Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I have gotten MANY tattoos and piercings over the years from Bodystain. I have always been very pleased with the work and the artists.I will not got to any other shop for any of my work!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming to this shop for years. I have never been disappointed! The team of artists here are amazing! I know when I go in for my appointment with an idea, I will always walk out with outstanding art that will last me a life time and great memories to go with it! I highly recommend this shop!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Melo and staff go above and beyond… This is not a walk in location. You have to book online and they also follow state regulation rules to the T.. This not only protects them but you as their client.. scheduling your appt allows the artist to have full one on one time just for you. They talk about you ideas, they create the idea then they complete it. Going to Bodystain is truly an experience and at the highest level of satisfaction… If you want the pleasure of going to a highly skilled team to incapture your vision with body ink…. Schedule online and see Melo and team!!! Brooke

Experiencia fantástica: Ailene did tattoos on me and my mom and she was absolutely amazing to work with. I highly recommend and I plan on going back soon!

Experiencia fantástica: Big Jack did my daughter's tattoo for her birthday. He was awesome, professional, nice, down to earth, and does great work. Big Jack is awesome! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first piercing experience, and it was fantastic! This was a bucket list check off for me and I couldn’t be happier. The professionalism and friendliness of the entire staff, and the cleanliness in the shop was first rate. Katie was my piercer, and she was wonderful. This is my go to place from now on. Thanks for your patience and professional demeanor, and I’ll see you again soon!

Experiencia negativa: Terrible!! Lied and said an appointment wasn't needed for a nose piercing. Arrived just for them to say they don't have time. If yall don't wanna service blacks just say that!! Spoke to the front desk lady on the phone then she stands there and lies!!

Experiencia positiva: I’ve read through the reviews and I keep wondering if this is the same place I visited. I had a nose piercing and a tattoo cover up. I was in and out more than once and always wondered why the atmosphere was so impersonal. The only nice person I dealt with was the front desk lady. The piercing chick was ice cube cold and the tattoo I wanted I was talked out of and walked out with another tattoo I’m not thrilled with. What the ….?

Experiencia fantástica: I got my nose pierced! Not my first piercing but it's been like a decade since my last piercing, the artist that serviced me was AWESOME!!! Great vibes, laid back. I will be going back and i would highly RECOMMEND to anyone seeking tattoos or piercings!! GREAT PRICES!! Worth the drive for sure. Love u guys!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Came here for a huge cover up on my side and back. Shawn did an amazing job at his art work. Very respectful and awesome service every time I show up. Reasonable pricing. I'd definitely go back again.

Experiencia fantástica: 5/5 stars for Sarah who did my nostril piercing and has helped me multiple times with another piercing. She is easily the best piercer I've ever had. Incredibly gentle, professional, and knowledgable. I love piercings but am terrified of needles and she always helps me in the gentlest way possible. There's always some pain involved with piercing but she seems to reduce it to only what is absolutely necessary. Now, I will not go to anyone but her for anything piercing related.

Experiencia fantástica: The team at Bodystain is second to none. They are friendly, professional, and extremely good at what they do. If you are looking for tattoos or piercings I would highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: As this was my first piercing, I was very nervous and worried about the process. Katie did an absolute amazing job reassuring me and walking me through the whole process. Loved it and can’t wait to come back again!

Experiencia negativa: worst service of my life. DO NOT make an appointment or put a deposit down unless you want to make an appointment 3 months before hand, and then finally get to that day, get there on time, and then have to wait 20 minutes, just to have them come tell you that they have to reschedule. i took my deposit and left, tattoo kings and cuts got me in WITHIN THE SAME DAY! and did my tattoo so amazing! AND i paid half the price i would pay there!! so so so amazing! i would not go here, they couldn’t have called me before hand ?? absolutely unprofessional.

Experiencia negativa: The girl with the long red ponytail was super rude and dismissive. Told me my piercing was infected and would not even change it. Went to Evolved where they changed it, told me it wasn't infected just agitated, and it healed perfectly. She act like she hate her job. Go to Evolved.

Experiencia positiva: I got my conch pierced a few weeks ago, and it was healing fine however, new skin started to form and cover my back piece. My back piece was completely covered with skin. I went back to Bodystain to have them look at it, only for the piercer to tell me that I needed to go to urgent care or ER. They couldn’t help me. I wasn’t happy about it, but I went to the closest Urgent care the same day, and they were not able to help me and told me to go to my primary care provider, and they would PROBABLY be able to help me. I panicked because I couldn’t understand why they couldn’t get my piercing out. So I decided to call another tattoo and piercing shop called Evolve Body Art on High Street, and they told me to come in and they would have a look at it. They were able to remove the skin from the back piece by piercing through it and gave me a long bar. I was able to keep my conch piercing and the swollen has gone down and it is healing now. Not sure why Bodystain couldn't just do that. I was told by the Evolve piercer that my skin covered the back piece because they gave me a short bar, and there was no room for my conch piercing to swollen up. I was told by Bodystain piercer that it was probably caused because I slept on it, and I have not for the past weeks. I was very cautious about not sleeping on it because I had also got two other piercing on that ear too that were healing too. If Evolve Body Art were able to fix my piecing for me in a matter of 2 minutes, Bodystain could have easily done this for me, but instead, I wasted a trip down to the urgent care that cost me. I will not be returning.

Experiencia fantástica: ​​JACK PARRILL (Big Jack) is super professional and does great work as a tattoo artist. The shop is clean. All interactions that I have seen by the staff are friendly and professional. I have been in twice and will continue to give them my business.

Experiencia fantástica: I did a walk in tattoo and my artist, Jack, was so detailed! All of the staff was very kind and I felt welcomed! Also I really love my new tattoo! It's a tiger animal cracker, and it is perfect <3

Experiencia positiva: I came here about a month ago after reading all the wonderful reviews to get 2 earlobe piercings and a helix piercing. It was very busy (I did make an appointment) so it was pretty rushed. Didn't realize until recently my earlobe piercings do not match up.

Experiencia fantástica: They're awesome here! I've always had a good experience there. I've dealt with Shawn Phay for the last two times, he really knows his craft!

Experiencia fantástica: I came here with my wife to have her Daith pierced. I can't remember the lady's name who did the piercing but she was awesome. My wife was nervous having heard about the process being painful. It wasn't. The piercing/tattoo artist was very professional. She explained everything she would be doing and what my wife would feel and put my wife at ease. After care advice was also very helpful and so far have had no problems.

Experiencia fantástica: I came in to get my first tattoo done and I had wanted to get a big piece to start a sleeve. Carmelo and I had talked and I let him know a few ideas I liked and wanted him to add his own ideas. Carmelo did an amazing job and kept me involved with his concept and ideas through the whole process. I couldn’t recommend a more professional and amazing artist. The people in the shop were supportive and kept checking it out along the way too. I will definitely be coming back to him and the bodystain family!

Experiencia fantástica: Jack P was awesome with my cover up!!!! I cannot give him enough stars. I had a bad tattoo and he made it something to love and be proud of.

Experiencia fantástica: Vii did this tattoo a year ago and it is still beautiful, bright, and vibrant! Everyone there is super nice and accommodating!

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great experience here. It was a last minute idea for my siblings and I to do to a memorial tattoo in honor of our brother. They got us right in and our artist Ailene was professional and compassionate and made sure each of us were comfortable to get the exact tattoo we wanted to honor our brother. Our daughter also got her nose pierced while we were there and the lady that did it was just as awesome ! Definitely recommend and we will be back to see Ailene

Experiencia fantástica: Katie pierced my septum and she did AMAZING. 11/10 shop… everyone is so friendly and nice, and makes for a very comfortable and welcoming atmosphere!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The place was immaculate. And the woman who pierced my 7yr old daughter's ears was incredibly knowledgeable, and walked her through the process with ease. I've been there before myself 9+ yrs ago and it's not changed a bit. Thank you for a great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: Katie was truly exceptional. She made our visit a true experience. She was professional and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Bodystain!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone here was awesome! Super friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient staff all around! Got my eyebrow pierced today- booked a 30min online appointment which was easy and simple to do. When I got there the staff were expecting me and ready to go. Prices were very reasonable as well. Can't wait to come back for more work!!

Experiencia fantástica: This tattoo shop is PHENOMENAL! After a long day of being screwed around with trying to get a tattoo from other people/shops I stumbled across bodystain on google and I rang them up to see if they did walk-ins, they said yes, I walked in, told them what I wanted, especially Baby Jack who is the one who tattooed me, and he was able to make it happen. The atmosphere of the shop is outstanding, the staff is so cool (shoutout to big jack, baby jack, and Carmelo), and also the person at the front desk (I think they went by bug? I didn’t get a name for them but they’re dope!!) they really make it seem so friendly and so chill, while I was getting tattooed they were so inviting when it comes to conversation and just their overall vibes. When it comes to the tattoo… AMAZING!!! Baby Jack did such a great job, he was very accepting to feedback, things I wanted to change/ do differently, and even making tweaks DURING the tattoo which artists in the past for my other tattoos did not do. I definitely recommend Baby Jack, and I’ll definitely be going back to bodystain for future tattoos. Thanks guys!

Experiencia fantástica: Making an online appointment was an extremely easy, everyone was very friendly, professional and definitely clean! It was my first time going here, they made it feel like I had nothing to worry about and that I was in good hands. I especially liked my piercer, Shea! She was extremely friendly, she made it quick, and painless! I would recommend this place to anyone

Experiencia fantástica: This place and people are AMAZING! Big Jack did mine and my husband's tattoos and did fabulous work! Will be getting more work done asap!

Experiencia fantástica: Very happy with my nose piercing. Healing has been very smooth. UPDATE: Almost 2 years later, I still have my nose ring. The healing process was smooth, I'm still very happy with it. I highly recommend them piercing!

Experiencia fantástica: I have yet to have a negative experience going to Bodystain. Carmelo did my first tattoo (photo) and worked expertly around that fact. He worked from least painful to most, and then filled in most painful to least so as the inflammation continued he wouldn’t be working on top of the inflammation in the more painful areas. He was quick and more than accommodating to my idea. He did this tattoo while I was in the process of losing weight. 50lbs later this tattoo is still perfectly centered and flows with my shoulder’s natural anatomy with impeccable finesse. I wish I had photos of my anklet, but my comments made on my shoulder remain the same for my anklet. Absolutely phenomenal. Sarah did my VCH piercing and I am nothing but ecstatic with it. Being a tender spot I had been nervous getting it done, but when I came in she did an exemplary job explaining the process and easing that anxiety with quirky humor sprinkled in - which is my favorite. After going into the back room she talked about the process of testing the hood to make sure a piercing there would be viable and explained the pain that was to be expected having it done. The piercing itself has healed *very* very well and I am incredibly satisfied with the symmetry & position in which it was placed. I have not gotten to work with all the staff who work at the Bodystain Tattoo shop, but with the experiences I have had, I am confident that the standards they have at this location make it a pinnacle of professionalism and experience in this field of work. I already plan to go back for additional tattoos and piercings.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been getting piercings here for a year. I go in to see Sarah and she does a great job. I have had 2 successful piercings by her and I got 3 more today. Everyone here is nice and professional. Anytime anyone asks where to get piercings, I tell them to go here and see Sarah! I love it here!

Experiencia fantástica: I love this place! The staff is awesome, the shop is always clean, and the artists are all very talented. Shout out to Shawn who has done more than one of my pieces!
