Went to refresh my old tattoo and enhance my butterfly tatoo by adding color. Jeremy was great. It did not take long at all. About an hour for both. COVID-19 protocol in place which made me comfortable. Price was quite reasonable. I received my first one there 9 yrs ago and Jeremy made it look brand new. Thanks you guys. π. π you rock.
I received two beautiful pieces from this establishment. Both pieces are lovely the most recent one, Well the whole skull OUTLINE is a MINOR keloid scar... When my elder loved one seen it... they didnt know what to say, rubbing my arm like WOW ... I simply said its okay think of it as Braille if you lose your eyesight youll know its me but touching my tattoo ππ€ the first one I had done in 2011 I believe the owners name was Wade and he personally did that tattoo and gave me a crazy discount best service ever I was bragging on it so much they made me sit in a folding chair when they did this recent one treated me like straight garbage but I completed the tattoo in one sitting....
I got a PA piercing from Melissa, and it was a wonderful experience. She was funny, informative, comforting, and best of all, very little pain she was so good. Would recommend again and again. Thanks, Melissa
I just got a tattoo from Cody and it turned out better than I couldve hoped for. Easily the most well done tattoo Ive gotten. The shop was super clean and everybody was really nice and helpful. 10/10 will go again
This was a great experience for my 11 year old daughter. She had a hard time getting through the second ear after the initial shock of the first piercing. Melissa was so wonderful and accommodating. She was patient and gave her the confidence she needed to finish the session. It was my daughters choice to pierce her ears, and Im so thankful Melissa encouraged the freedom of choice (timing and pace) for the process and reinforced the message of respect for her body. Melissa was compassionate and encouraged my daughter to express her feelings and tears of relief! My daughter is so so happy and cant stop looking at her daisy earrings. I highly recommend Melissa and Bodytech to handle your childs piercings.
Justin did a phenomenal job taking out my messed-up nose ring and putting in a new one just want to say you gave me extra TLC with it great place to go
Absolutely a amazing place!!! The service desk associates were so nice! And the piercer Melissa was absolutely amazing! Shared so many laughs and definitely made it a moment to remember! I highly recommend this establishment to anyone who is looking to modify their body! You wonβt regret it!
Went here to get some tattoos done while I was visiting my friends in Gainesville. I ended up getting 3 smaller tattoos (Cody was the artist that I worked with) and they all look amazing! Honestly the line work is incredible. One of the tattoos is a thermodynamics equation and it genuinely looks like it was typed. In addition the lines on the wild flower tattoo are so clean and the script on the quote is beautiful! It has been a little over a week and all three have healed very nicely so far which I absolutely contribute in part to the spectacular craftsmen ship as these three seem to be healing better then previous tattoos Ive gotten even though I used the same aftercare method. I absolutely love my new tattoos and would highly recommend going here as not only was the end product terrific but the staff are incredible nice!
Recently got my nipples pierced here! And I can definitely say they are the best! Very respectful, they answered all my questions and even made sure I felt comfortable during the piercing. I donβt understand what all he bad reviews are about but Iβd definitely recommend Bodytech! Definitely going back for more piercings
Ive always had a great experience here. Cristina does an excellent job. Finishing up a sleeve and will be back for another.
Liz is the best artist hands down for customer service, professionalism, and all around making ideas come to life. This is the second time Iβve gotten tattooed by her, love the shops atmosphere, all the employees are AMAZING. If youβre looking for the spot to get anything and everything tattooed hereβs your shop. 10 out of 10
Jeremy was my artist. He did an excellent job. I have gotten multiple compliments.
Jeremiah was great. Everything was quick and professional. Got exactly what I wanted.
I just recently got a tattoo by Cris and I am so in love with it. Sheβs professional, kind, and her work is absolutely incredible. I will definitely be booking another tattoo with her in the future.
The female piercer is awesome did a great job real quick and very professional
This was my first time getting a tattoo, and honestly it was an amazing experience! I got a small wolf tattoo by Cris and she was amazing, I would definitely get my second one done by her. Thank you Bodytech!
I came here about 3 weeks ago and got a tattoo the artist did a great job, I absolutely love it. The customer service could be a lot better. Some of the staff I felt like was just rude and I was asked by one of the women there what I was there for like Iβm just chillin In there for nothing. Scheduling could be a lot better also . The whole write the artist on Instagram thing is garbage you never get a response been trying to make another appointment for almost 3 weeks now .
Justin did my belly button over a year ago and my second lobe piercings and my daith piercing a few months ago and he was very respectful and did a great job. I came back today to get my nipples done and he was amazing as always. It was fast and pretty painless so it made the experience a whole lot easier. I love the piercings and I highly recommend him if youβre looking for a great piercer.
One of the cleanest shops Ive ever been to. Liz was extremely nice as were the other employees I met while I was there. Beautiful work from all artists. I dont think Ill go anywhere else to have work done.
I had an appointment at this Bodytech location. While waiting in their parking lot to go in, TWO MINUTES before my appointment they called me to let me know that neither piercer was in today because they were home sick... I think its safe to assume the piercers did not get sick 30 seconds before that call. So I wouldve appreciated that notice much sooner (whether a call, text or email)... Very unprofessional and inconsiderate if you ask me... Complete waste of gas and time. Please be more considerate of other peoples schedules.
Very professional. Very courteous. Steve was my artist & he is Awesome!Definitely going back for more ink in the future.π
Iβm ecstatic about my new tattoo! Was doing a happy dance to my truck! Liz is professional, caring, honest, and comforting through the whole process! Not only that but most importantly her artwork is top notch and clean ππ½ I love the work she does, and I already have another appointment scheduled that Iβm counting down to! πβ¨
I am from out of town and was referred to this shop. Logan the receptionist was great. I found Justin to be rude and not very interactive which is opposite of what I heard and read. So that was disappointing. The procedure itself was painless and quick. The only cleaning instruction I got was on a card and I felt like I was bothering Justin with my questions. Thank you Logan for being patient when I did have a few questions about properly caring for my nose ring.
I took my 9 yr old to get her ears pierced. The staff spoke to her on her level. They treated her like she was the customer not me. I appreciate the fact that the staff understood that it was her experience and that she is a child.
Came here for a nose piercing and the whole process was very fast, easy, and clean. A lovely parlor with lovely employees. :)
Ive lived all over the country and this was one of the cleanest tattoo/piercing parlors Ive been to. Every single staff member was polite, funny, informative, helpful. Jennifer was great when I called. Logan and Justin were hilarious and helpful in person. Felt so safe despite getting a tongue piercing during Covid. They take all the precautions and are really respectful about it. The piercing? Justin was so confident and it was so fast. Im not sure if it is supposed to hurt but...it does not at all (day after.) Im no scientist but I hear the piercer makes a big difference in healing. Planning tattoos now just so I can go back. Only go here if you want the best experience and to possibly start a body mod obsession just to go back. Thank you! Oh, and I forgot this on Yelp but their jewelry is beautiful and I got an email for aftercare immediately after I left which is so convenient and professional.
Awesome shop! Got my nose pierced here and everyone was so kind and knowledgeable, and its super clean inside too. Will definitely come back for my next piercing. :)
Three weeks ago I made an appointment to have two lobe piercings and a rook piercing done. I came in and filled out my information at the desk and the receptionist, who seemed busy, pointed me at a selection of surgical steel studs for my lobes and gave me one option of surgical steel curved barbell for my rook. I asked if there were any other materials as I have reacted to nickel in the past and she said that the only choice was surgical steel for the rook and that the lobes I could get were plated surgical steel.I didnβt question this, but I wish I did knowing now that there is actually a large selection of jewelry to choose from and that my piercer, Justin, regularly pierces with implant grade titanium as seen on his Instagram page.Iβm a little disappointed that I wasnβt given the choice that others are given and that Iβm stuck with a healing surgical steel barbell. (Edit: just had this barbell replaced at an APP certified shop and discovered it is an externally threaded cheap piece of steel that I paid way too much for)Justin is a skilled piercer and placed my lobes and rook very well, but he used a gun or needle pusher on my lobes without asking me (I paid a high price for this to be done when I would have preferred a traditional needle. I read in previous reviews that other people had the same frustration with the stud pusher and the owner replied that the stud pusher is usually used on children and that needles are used on adults (Iβm 23 yrs old)).
This place is very professional and clean. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Fast service regarding tattoos when the artist starts. I recommend Steve for tattoos he makes you feel comfortable and explain what he is doing throughout the process.
I got two tattoos done by Cristina (Crishouse.tattoo) and the entire experience could not have been better. She was extremely professional and her work is absolutely beautiful. She did exactly what I wanted better than I could have ever explained it. I could not have asked for a better piece and I will definitely be going back to her for all future tattoos.
I had an awesome experience with Cris House at Body tech. Great work, professional, and great communication before and after. Highly recommend.
Very rude was told on phonee one thing and get there was told another and when we tried to fix it the guy behind the counter didnt even want ingage us to see if we had the problem resolved
Theyβve sold me a septum jewelry that was smaller than what Iβve asked for and after going home I noticed that it was small and before putting in my nose Iβve went to a friendβs shop in town so they could measure for me and it was actually smaller than what i asked for.When i tried to return the jewelry they claimed that it wasnβt smaller than what i asked for and that I wouldnβt get a refund when you could clearly see the difference by just looking/comparing what i had in my nose n what they sold to me.Not my first time having a bad experience there but thatβs my first time sharing a review.Poor quality piercings and customer service, would definitely recommend their tattoo artists but not a good place to get piercings
Love Bodytech, Was a walk in app and wait time was better than I thought it would be and my tattoo artist was amazing, He did a great job and line work was perfect. Had a great conversation and laugh. Looking forward to my next visit.
Absolutely love this place. True talent lives here
Just got my tattoos done by Cristina and she was amazing! She was so talented and professional. Iβd recommend her to everyone!
I love the piercing guy he is amazing..
The receptionists were kind and patient when I left my ID at home and had to come back, absolutely wonderful experience! I was in and out, Justin was amazing at making it fast and painless!
This message is for the owner of body Tech tattooing and piercing I was just as surprised as you are today to find out that there was no one who could give me the piercing that I wanted the gentleman that was working that day was a young guy I should have got his name he didnt offer me an appointment to come back he just said no 1 was there. I trust your business I trust your guys I wanted to get some more piercings however my time is limited because my job . I need a tattoo done I will be coming in again next week and I hope someones there this time
From reception to piercing artist these folks are the best! Clean, fast, professional and friendly! Think I need more piercings now!!!
Staff is wonderful and everyone there is experienced at what they do. Friendly atmosphere and clean, sanitized and plenty of piercings to choose from.
I was going to get my septum pierced but I wussed out at the last second. I did however get my nose pierced, a banging 14k Wu-Tang insignia a bit pricey the total price came out to $277 but majority of that price was due to the fact that I have 14 karat gold in my nose, wasnt my intention but you can never go wrong with Wu-Tang!!!! C.R.E.A.M
I really like getting my piercing here. I booked my appointment online. The shop is covid safe, everyone was wearing masks inside. Mel was the most amazing piercer ever. I could not have asked for a better experience.
I will give five stars because The women on the phone was friendly and nice just the prices was too high to my liking but it doesnt give the right to lose a star because I didnt like the prices
Getting my first sleeve done there and lizzy is a phenomenal artist I would recommend anyone/anybody to her for their first or even 100th tattoo with her. Bodytech is very professional and the vibe I get when I go there is pretty much addictive. Bodytech along with their artist will accommodate you and your questions. If you were to ask me where should I go to get my tattoo I would without a doubt tell you bodytech. Here is the beginning of my new sleeve. the cross on my forearm was not done by bodytech please disregard that from the pictures If it is visible. This is obviously not finished so I will add more through out each session.
Me and a friend got nose piercings. Clean and professional shop.
Justin did my industrial and we was super fast about it. It made for a much easier experience and he was very polite and answered any questions that I had. All the staff was friendly and I would definitely come back.
I received two piercings today. Tragus surface, and regular Tragus. Justin the piercer was great! He gave me instructions on how to care for my piercings&if I have any problems dont hesitate to call. I called 30 minutes before going, they answered the phone gave me a quote. Not one person there had an attitude. Customer service was A1. I wasnt even in there 15 minutes. I basically walked in got pierced and walked out(of course I picked out my jewelry & spray first lol). I thought about going somewhere else, I am so happy I went with them instead. I highly recommend!!! Btw:Justin Is fast as hell, Logan was kind, and patient. He helped me pick out my jewelry.
Love this place. *MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN I.D*
Extremely clean, professional and very understanding. Going back in a week.
Great place to work and grow as an artist. Lots of business and very friendly staff and customers. β‘
Fast nice and professional..yes great prices as well j get all my piercing needs taken care of here good prices on jewelry...a nice selection to choose from for any kind of piercing
My husband went to get his ears pierced. Great experience, nice staff and thoroughly explained the care instructions and answered all questions.
Very nice people. Great atmosphere.
I got my nipples and belly button pierced here about 2 weeks ago and they are healing nicely and are not in pain at all! I just would love to give a special review to who pierced me, her name was Melissa Welch! SHE WAS AMAZING!!!!!!! she made me feel so comfortable and provided all the information I needed to know about my piercings! I LOVE them! she also provides her own cards with her name and number if you have any questions to ask her about the piercings!
Got my nose pierced by Justin today and it was great! Super fast and painless. Gave me all cleaning instructions and they sell cleaning spray in the studio. It was a great experience!
Ive been going to these guys and gals for 12 years. Ive recommended them to anyone in at least a hundred mile radius. Thanks for staying awesome!β€οΈ
Me and my bf got piercings from here and my nose piercing got pierced crooked as well as my bfs tongue ring was tightened down by piercer way too tight. He did both super slow super painful as well as the man being super rude the second we walked into the room to get it done would NEVER COME BACK if I could give 0 stars I would this is messed up
Clean establishment. Professional. Fast. Great place. A lot of piercing/tattoo places arent the most up kept places, but this one is an exception.
Got pierced by Melissa today and she was amazing! She calmed my nerves and made me feel right at home. The whole process was quick and easy and I would reccomend to anyone. Thanks for the great experience
All of my experiences at Bodytech have exceeded my expectations. The shop is extremely well kept, sanitary and organized, and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Liz did a fantastic job on my tattoo, working for nearly 6 hours on the first session without missing a beat. She is an exceptional artist and I appreciated how she had me work with her on the design, since I knew the features of the tree and she knew how to bring them to life! She provided valuable input on placement and checked with me multiple times throughout the sessions to confirm design decisions and receive feedback. I could not have asked for better service, company, or art and I am very grateful to Liz and the Bodytech team for making this experience and art one of the best of my life.
I have gotten my nose pierced twice here. I have 2 on the same side of my nostril and they were both quick and remotely painless. Everything was sterile and the piercer was very kind. She talked me through exactly what would happen (even the second time I got my nose pierced). She did her absolute best to make sure I was calm and prepared before she pierced me.
My three friends and I got piercings by Justin today. We can all agree it was amazing. Super fast and easy!
Love the facility, artist and service. Ive had all my tattoos and piercings here. Travelled from TN to here to have my work done and my family has all there work done here as well. Highly recommend.
Melissa is a wonderful piercer and I have always been happy with her work. Justin Berk, however, is consistently rude and unprofessional (and I have been coming to Bodytech for years). From reading othersβ reviews, I know I am not the only customer who feels this way. Learn to embrace customer service or find a profession that doesnβt require itβ and I say that as someone who works in the industry myself. When Iβm putting money in your hand, I donβt think thatβs too much to ask.
I love going their. They are soo good to their customers. Thank you for a great experience every time I come for the smallest needs
Wonderful place . Great artist. Amazing work. Very calming place.
Always friendly, always professional, always clean.
Refused to disclose information i needed to know before I went in for a piercing. Great way to ruin a birthday.
Malcolm is super awesome! Showed him a doodle of what I wanted and he was able to create the perfect piece for me. Will definitely get more tattoos from him in the future! I also got a septum piercing done by Justin, it was completely painless and super fast. I absolutely love it
Very nice and helpful and wasnt a long wait at all made sure everyone wore the mask a sanatied as soon as you enter the buildingβ€β€
Melissa was awesome and fast with the nose piercings for me and my daughters!
I had two tattoos done by Larry in June 2020, the first few days they looked great and exactly how I wanted them to. As they healed, the line work became very thick and the ink is spreading. As you can see in the pictures below, after they healed the lines have doubled in size and I am disappointed that theyβre permanent. Itβs saddening because Iβve always been pretty pleased with any piercing or my first tattoo I received here, but this work is less than. I understand sometimes line work can be tricky and can spread occasionally, but this seems excessive. The artist also mentioned during my session that he had never completed a tattoo apprenticeship. He was very nice, but Iβm upset over this work.
I went here yesterday for a nipple piercing and it was a great experience. The piercer was very professional and gave the correct bar to fit my body. Thank you so much!
I had my first tattoo done with Malcolm. It was an overwhelmingly positive experience. He was patient and guided me through the process. I am extremely pleased with how It turned out, and I plan on having future visits. Thank you Malcolm!I also received a nostril piercing with Justin. It was a quick and simple process. I am pleased with the results. Thank you Justin!
Way over priced for the quality of work that is done!
Everyone was really professional and I was seen in a timely manner. I dont remember his name, but the artist that did my tattoo back in April of 2019 was amazing. My tattoo came out beautiful. I had drawn a Yosemite Sam as a memorial for my dad. He loved that cartoon character and also had it tattooed on his arm. So mine was done on the same arm. Ive had another tattoo done by Bodytech back in 2007. Im very pleased with their work. I recommend ANYONE to go there. Whether its a tattoo or piercing, thats where you need to go.
Quality, professionalism, friendly, talented.....these people know what you want.
Went once with some friends, for my buddies first tattoo. I have mixed feelings. Girls at the front were helpful and friendly, but the guy who did my BDSM sign and my buddies gaming tattoo was not friendly and his lines on my buddies are not good at all.(His first tattoo at that!) Mixed reviews but this is a real experience. Over priced for what we recieved personally. $80 for my leg symbol, and $60 for the bad lines round gaming symbol. We tipped and will not go back to whichever guy we had previously.
I love their work here! My sister recommended for us to do our tattoos here with Paul. So we booked out for 1 month to get matching tattoos. We got there at 8 pm and they were really helpful. I decided last minute I wanted my nose pierced and Justin helped me! He did my piercing so quick and was really friendly! Then my sister, cousin and I got our tattoos done. Paul did exactly what we wanted. We were unsure where we wanted it and he placed it on us in different spots to see where we liked it. We were there until after 12 am but the experience was great. All our tattoos came out great and Paul was super patient for doing 3 tattoos on me. Justin came and checked on us a couple of times to ask how everything was going! Thatβs awesome and great customer service. We will definitely be back for all of our needs.
Great experience, excellent customer service, very clean. I got my first tattoo there 18 years ago and keep returning. Wayne is awesome! BodyTech is the finest tattoo spot in Gainesvilleπ
Ive had nothing but good experiences here. It may not look like much outside, but the inside of the shop is very modern and well-kept. The work area is more modern and just as clean as some of the doctors offices Ive been to (but has a lot more flash on the walls than those do). I would definitely recommend browsing the artists Instagram accounts to get a feel for how they do their lines/shading/color and calling the shop to schedule a consultation before going in, but even if you just come in with an idea and no particular artist, Bodytech will do their best to make it work. I also got my ears pierced here, much to the same effect: quick, clean, and professional (Justin was picking up my jewelry and bringing me over to the chair right as I finished paperwork), with lots of jewelry options to select.
I got my belly button pierced tonight by Melissa Welch and she was so amazing! She thoroughly explained everything to me, made sure everything was clean and quick, and was super friendly. I didnβt get the receptionist/other girl workingβs name, but she was super nice as well. If you two are reading this, youβre the bomb!β₯οΈ
I had the pleasure of being tattooed by Larry. He did a wonderful and simplistic floral tattoo on my spine. He was very nice, communicative, patient, and respectful. His tattoo techniques were also soft, not harsh, and was always checking up on me and making sure I was doing okay. I highly recommend him and the shop overall!!!
Very sanitary, everyone is super nice and professional. Ive had good experiences with both tattoos and piercings here.
Absolutely phenomenal. I honestly cant wait to come back. Liz was awesome and the whole place is so well put together and so incredibly clean.
Very legit shop, with the better quantity of quality tattoo artist. Very happy with the staff, work, and precautions they take.
My husband and I came in for anniversary tattoos and Malcolm did an amazing job! It was both our first times and we were instantly put at ease. Very clean and professional environment, everyone was great.10/10 would absolutely recommend.
