The girl who did my piercing was super nice, needles and jewelry had clearly been autoclaved and she placed the piercing perfectly as far as I can tell. It's healing up nicely so far! I also got a few other piercings and a tattoo done here over the years. Never had any issues.

He told me to get on antibiotics before he takes it out to prevent infection.

She has a few apprentices, and it is evident that this, as well as the utmost attention to detail is paid. Extremely friendly staff come in, see what the art is and chat with you to keep you relaxed. It's a very well-knit establishment. Having this joint so close, be owned and operated by a woman, and getting the experience my daughter and I had is wonderful. Can't wait for my next! Thank you Ann for your graciousness. 10/10 Will be back for more

Looking for the best piercing/tattoo place in central New York? Well, look no further. You found…read moreit!!! My friend Nikki has been wanting her nose pierced for months now but couldn't find a legitimate place to get it done. Finally, I talked to my friend Tasha who recommended Inkorporated Tattoo Studio to me. She said she got her nose pierced there and it was a breeze. I called them up for my friend and they got us right in. Their piercer, Jeff, takes walk ins from 4-8pm everyday. When I called it was around 1pm and he wasn't in yet, but they called him up and he swung right over to do my friends piercing. No hassle. It was so easy. They are very accommodating. Jeff was awesome. My friend was a little nervous about the piercing but he walked her through step by step. He was so chill, friendly, and awesome! The vibes are so awesome at this place. They even have a dog Remy who is absolutely beauuutiiifullll! They also do some amazing tattoo work. Check out the pictures. I wouldn't go anywhere else in central new York for a piercing or tattoo. This place is legit. Check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed!!!

I stopped in after calling ahead by about half an hour, and we got started. I was nervous - I have plenty of tattoos, but only ear piercings - and I must admit, it was painful. I prolly wouldn't do it again. And I unfortunately - and humiliatingly - passed out right after David pierced my nose and put in the jewelry. I thought I was prepared, but I guess I wasn't, lol. Thankfully, he was absolutely awesome. He caught me and had me lay down for a while, brought me water and a lollipop to help with my sugar levels and kept checking on me to make sure I was okay. It took me about 20 minutes to get back to normal, and he was so patient and kind about it. That really meant a lot. If I ever get another piercing, I'll definitely be going here.

The Absolute BEST I…read morewas recommended to Chris and Raven Tattoo by a friend, and going to him has been the absolute best tattoo experience ever! He went above and beyond throughout-- beginning with the design consult where he helped me realize the vision I had for my first large back piece. I have gotten several smaller pieces over the years at other places all over the country and can attest that Chris and Pink Raven are the best across the board. Best Artist with amazing attention to detail, Best personality, most fun to work with, Best shop -- which is spotlessly clean and welcoming. Chris has a very chill and professional vibe. I felt completely confident and relaxed from start to finish. But the best part of all was my finished piece- which is amazing and waaay better than I even dreamed it would be. Anyone considering their first tat or some major ink work should NOT go anywhere else. Thank you Chris! See you again soon! - Robb G.
