Infinite body piercing is the only place I will get pierced in Philly and I recommend it to…read moreabsolutely everyone. 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.

My boyfriend wanted to return the jewelry but the technician said that he couldn't, even though he asked a couple of times, because "you already purchased it." In short, don't come here unless you're ready to deal with unprofessional techs who sell you jewelry that you then can't wear because they can't keep their business promises, and then won't give you a refund.

Floating World is great for tattoos! I live nearby and have walked in and scheduled appointments in…read moreadvance with specific artists. 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!

For 30 years I've had a design in mind and I finally decided to do something about it. I know…read morepeople go to great lengths to find a perfect artist and aside from finding a local shop with good reviews, I dove right in to Hunter Gatherer. Communicating through their site, I received a response quickly. They paired me with an artist and I quickly reviewed his work online. I knew quickly that my somewhat simple design (Picasso's Don Quixote), and all black coloring would probably be simple for Mike. Turns out, it was! I could have left a deposit and gone for a consultation first, but decided to just roll in and get it done. I'm an anxious guy and am older, so hanging at the tat shop isn't my norm! The front desk person was so kind and clearly loves their job. They paired me with an artist who went to art school, was a little older (sorry Mike!) and took the assignment to heart. He worked on me for about 2.5 hours and I still am surprised at how inexpensive the final product cost. Mike clearly explained aftercare and made sure I knew what to do and avoid. He also made sure to let me know that 54 year old skin heals differently than 20! A solid month later and I couldn't be more pleased with my tattoo. My other calve is itching for ink, and I'm excited to know where and who to go to. Disclaimer: I don't know shit about tattoos, but I love what Hunter Gatherer and Mike did for me.

The very next weekend, I was in, getting my first tattoo, who had been done by Lisa Harrison, who also worked at the old shop. It's been nearly 17 years and, with the exception of 3 of my tattoos, the other 24 had been done in Mikey's shop. He's always friendly, courteous, and kind. Always willing to strike up a conversation while the electric needle is going, and he's been very reasonable for as long as I've known him. A great artist and an even better friend. Once he inks you, you're family. Highly recommended, always clean, sterilize the hell out of everything. If you go on a Saturday, call first to check his availability. If possible, go during the week.

I told Mike exactly where I wanted the holes; he made marks and showed me for my OK. One he hit and the other he missed, although not by a lot. Worse still, the holes are at an angle. The hole exits the back of my earlobe lower than where it is in front, so you can see the backings of all studs, and you can tell that the studs are at a 45 degree angle. The place is sanitary, and he is easy to talk to, but won't be going back, have to see someone else about new holes that look right.
