Piercing near Woodside

“This was my first tattoo. The artist made me feel comfortable. Everything was sterilize. I would recommend Red Parlour to all my friends and family“

“I had my helix pierced by Zoey he was very respectful, and nice. I first came to his shop for an industrial but when he saw my ears he made sure to mention that my ears weren’t shaped for an industrial and gave me other piercing options. That’s very good to know when getting anything pierced, The place is very nice to look at there’s a lot of cool drawings inside the place and there was music playing I really like the vibe. The pain was not bad at all. The price was not bad it was 70$ to get a helix on both ears. The price he was going to charge me when I asked for industrial on my right was 50$ which was pretty cheap in my opinion. I’m thankful I came here I left happy and pierced!“

“i was able to get my very first tattoo at uplift and it was an amazing experience. i was incredibly nervous to get a tattoo alongside the fact that it is very meaningful to me, but Junh was incredibly gentle, friendly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process.

the studio was very clean and welcoming, and everyone was professional. i was surprised that even after my appointment, Uplift Tattoo made sure i had the opportunity to ask any questions i had about aftercare, which i really appreciated.

im so happy with how everything turned out and will always remember my first tattoo experience here. highly recommend!“

“I’ve been either recommending people to this shop or coming here myself since 2007, so the fact that I’m still supporting them all these years later says a lot. Since 2024, I’ve personally gotten three pieces done here, and I’ve had consistently positive experiences.
My most recent visit was especially great. Bana at the front desk was warm, helpful, and made the whole process feel easy from the moment I came in. My tattoo artist, Will, was amazing. He really listened to what I wanted, helped everything flow with the tattoos I already had, and paid attention to the little details that made the final piece feel cohesive instead of just looking like random additions.
I love how my newest work came together the linework is clean, the shading is beautiful, and the placement makes the whole space-themed section of my arm feel intentional and fun. Will was patient, professional, easy to talk to, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process.“

“I got my helix done here last summer. I remember him being professional and quick. I think it was 15-20 dollars, super worth it! I’ve gotten a bump a couple times but it is because of my hair getting stuck so don’t be afraid if you get one. Other than that it’s healed perfectly and im going back in a couple weeks for another piercing“

“KC was an absolute gem, she educated me and was very kind and gentle the entire time. She took the time to ensure I understood how to care for my piercings, even the ones that were not done by her. She is amazing!!!“

“Ernie is the best! I always come here for my piercings and I’m never disappointed! Super professional place, definitely recommend“

“I cannot recommend Studio 28 enough. I had done multiple ear piercings while abroad and had been delaying getting them downsized/replaced for a couple of months (holidays, work, end of year, you name it). I had been looking at studios here in America. I asked coworkers about Studio 28 (easily accessible via public transportation for me) and they all had glowing recommendations. Life kept going on until mid January 2026 when I could no longer ignore an irritation flare up. Full of guilt for not coming in sooner and letting the irritation go on for so long, I was petrified but went to Studio 28 as a walk in.

Thankfully they were able to see me and listened to my story. Emily helped me pick out new piercings based on my style preferences. I appreciated they had a great selection based on budget. She was honest and assessed my ear and let me know if my choices made sense. Thank you, Emily, I get compliments for how beautiful my ears look. I never heard of Modern Mood and now the biggest fan.

I don't have enough words to say about George. He listened, sympathized, conferred with Emily and giving her a high five over the earrings selected. Not once did they chastise me or admonish me, but embraced me and disarmed my guilt. He took the time to remove and replace each of my piercings, changing the gauge and choosing the right post sizes. He explained everything he was doing and answered all my questions. I had no idea what to expect when I was walking in, but apparently with my luck, simply the best.

He gave me after instructions for after piercing care. His compassion and infectious smile had me leaving the studio with confidence that I did not ruin my piercing journey. I returned in March 2026 to get the still healing piercings downsized. He remembered all my piercing stories and the symbolism behind them. It made me feel valued and seen.

Thank you, Emily and George and Studio 28 for all your patience when I was a walk-in wreck. Healing takes time, and now I am scheduling a new piercing.

Not only does this Studio have an amazing selection, clean facilities, excellent piercing practices, but the piercers are top notch human beings.“

“I love Rebel Ink. This place is incredible and Victoria at the desk was super kind and patient with me. Chico the artist is incredible..... easy to work with, cool, extremely artistic individual and incredible, caring artist! Can't wait to back for my next tat with him. Place is beautiful, clean, and they really care! You don't walk in feeling uncomfortable to ask questions, no rushing, that means everything to me. I've been places that were uninterested, cold and the vibe was extremely off. This is my 2nd tattoo there. And even back in 2018 I believe it was, this spot had the same vibe.
I saw the other artists there doing some incredible work. You won't regret getting your work done there. Truly...“

“love this place , Peter was really nice and showed me every single detail I needed to know as this to be my first tattoo a really great experience“

“took the family for an non-traditional sunday of fresh ink and can’t say enough good things about the team, the level of professionalism, and flawless art. thank you so much! we look forward to visiting again soon.“

“Patient staff, clean comfortable studio and rad artwork everywhere. I'm not quite sure what else you could want in a tattoo studio.

Update -
Got. Second tattoo from Jess that I absolutely love. Color is packed so well and she brought my slice idea to life.

10/10 experiences both times“

“I got my septum done around a month ago by Zare and she was very sweet and easy to talk to! I love my piercing so much and ill definitely be coming back soon!“

“B took a design concept for a vine + Sanskrit addition to my owl tattoo and ran with it. Tons of attention to detail (even in making sure my body was comfortably positioned while setting up), friendly & professional, kindly tolerated every “can we move this up slightly, no wait it looked better where it was before…” bit of my obnoxious until the design was exactly what I wanted. And the price was super reasonable - surprisingly so for NYC. Will definitely be back!“

“I got toothgems done by Elizabeth and they’re so cute! She was very thorough with the placement and made sure I approved before she cured them. The process was quick and painless. The gems are so fun for summer! Would highly recommend getting yours done with Elizabeth!“

“Visiting from Canada and my cousin and I got matching tats. Best experience EVER. Light handed. Nicest guys ever. Very professional. 100% recommend!!!!“

“Everyone here is so welcoming, kind,
professional and informative! I felt good and secure about getting services done here, I would most definitely recommend this place to anybody. Shout out to Humo and Jeff!!!!!“

“I wanted a full back piece to cover up an old tattoo I got when I was 16. I came across Andrea Fiorenza on Instagram through an ad, and something immediately told me I had to reach out.

From the very beginning, Andrea’s communication was outstanding, both over the phone and in person. I shared my vision with him, and with his incredible artistic expertise, he added his own creative touch that took the design to another level. The moment I saw it, I was completely in love.

We completed the piece over five sessions, and I have to say, I took it like a champ! 😂 Every session was worth it. Andrea exceeded every expectation I had, and now I can’t stop looking at my back. The detail, artistry, and overall execution are nothing short of amazing.

Thank you again, Andrea, for creating such an incredible piece of art. I truly appreciate your talent and professionalism, and I can’t wait to come back for more ink in the future. If you’re looking for an artist who genuinely cares about bringing your vision to life, I can’t recommend Andrea Fiorenza enough!“

“Listen: the only other place I would trust to get my piercings done is all the way in Malaysia.

With over 20 piercings — some failed, some retired, some still in place and thriving — I was afraid to get my piercing anywhere else, but I got a vertical stack at Nine Moons back in 2022 and it’s one of my favourites to this day.

Definitely felt like I was a man cheating on their barber by going to another, but if I’m back in New York and wanting another piercing, I’d definitely come back here.“

“clean shop, talented tattooist and all-around great experience with Joe (thank youuuuuu!)“

“Thank you, Angelo, for tattooing my sister and me during Tuesday's 2 for $100 special! Our tattoos came out amazing, and we couldn't be happier with the results.
Angelo was incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back to him for our next tattoos.
I've been coming to Art N Soul for every tattoo I've gotten, and the customer service is always top-notch. You're always greeted as soon as you walk in, appointments are on time, and the entire team is welcoming and professional.
I highly recommend Art N Soul to anyone looking for quality work and a great experience. Be sure to check them out for your next tattoo!“

“I had such an amazing experience here for my very first tattoo. I walked in feeling really nervous, but from the moment I arrived, the entire atmosphere made me feel so comfortable and welcomed.

Emilio was incredible. He took his time to walk me through every step, answered all of my questions, and made sure I felt confident in my decision before we even started. His hands were so light that the process was honestly almost painless, which I never expected for my first tattoo.

I’m so grateful that they accepted me as a nervous first-time walk-in and turned what could have been an intimidating experience into something really special and meaningful.

The pricing was also very reasonable (minimum is $100), and truly worth it for the level of care, precision, and dedication Emilio put into his work.

Thank you so much to Emilio and the entire team for such a positive first experience. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Such a fun experience! Everyone was so nice and made me feel comfortable while I take getting tatted by Neez! I would recommend, pricing was also reasonable.“

“Couldn’t be happier with my experience with Morg. This was a full leg tattoo, and she absolutely killed it. I came in with ideas and inspiration, but she really brought her own vision and artistry into it too, which made the whole piece feel unique and personal.

The process felt super collaborative from start to finish. She listened, guided me when needed, and elevated the design in the best way possible. Beyond being insanely talented, she also made the entire experience comfortable and easy. Really grateful I trusted her with something this big.“

“We got at NO IDOLS for an appointment session with Gabe (Ig:@gabetattoos) and ended up spending the whole day there getting two tattoos. The vibe was super chill and welcoming, full of great talking and jokes.

The next day, Ermis (Ig: @ermisart) helped us with changing the second skins - really appreciated that.

The spot is on the best street in New York - Orchard ❤️ Thanks a lot, we’ll definitely be back!“

“Best first experience for a piercing, Cami pierced my eyebrow and was very patient with me the whole way through. When I contacted Cami through instragram she responded promptly to get me in her schedule to get the piercing taken care of when i got it infected. She kept checking in with me through the past 2 months, helping me get it all sorted and healed to get the piercing put back in. i will definitely be coming back to this location and to Cami for my next piercings in the future. Wonderful service, and the vibes overall in the place were great. and most importantly everything was done cleanly, everything was sanitary.“
