On a monumental birthday, my BFF gave me a gift certificate to come get a tattoo here. She had…read moregotten the idea when during quarantine we would meet at a local wooded park and walk the trails for hours to stay sane. Prior to the pandemic I had decided I wanted to get boxing gloves on my shoulder. Having not gotten a tattoo in two decades and having sworn I would never again, I just like that changed my mind. She had come to this location twice to get a couple tattoos of her own over the past couple years and thought it would make a great birthday gift to come together for an appointment. It turned out to be on of the best gifts. The shop is in a strip mall. The waiting area leave little to be desired. My BFF made our appointments on a Saturday at 4pm. She said the artist though very nice and does good work has a tendency to run late. When she said late I never really imagined what was in store for us. The shop closes at 6 on Saturday's and we were still in the waiting room "waiting" for our appointment to begin. About 2ish hours in she said we could come back. I was a ball of nerves. The last time I got a tattoo I fainted, twice. The first time I got a tattoo I also fainted, twice. Both times I had to be brought back with smelling salts. I don't recommend. She heard that and took great care to get some gummy bears in me, have cold water available, a fan pointed at me and had me lay down as opposed to seated as with my other experiences. It worked. Still hurt like heck but I did not faint. In the end after being there for basically a whole day, I was pleased with the artist Aime, the results of the tattoo and the price was fair. I wasn't really happy with how long it took to get us back there and to complete the process, but that is about the only bad thing I can say. Since the first time I have been back to see Aime 2x's, for two more tattoos after swearing them off for 20 years. Funny thing is I'm a little obsessed now... But the waiting is not a fluke. Clear your calendar and pack a lunch. You WILL be here all day. Otherwise very much recommend

I had to close them and yesterday (a year later) they healed beautifully leaving no scars and also yesterday I finally got my ears pierced and for the first time ever I'm wearing normal earrings. I'm excited lol now I can wear all those beautiful earrings I've been saving for years once my ears heal again. I couldn't have picked a better person to do this. Thank you Zack For making this process easier than I thought and such a beautiful experience. If you're in the Pittsburgh area and want to get pierced with high quality titanium and gold jewelry check out Genisys Body Arts. Zack is the best! Definitely worth the trip from Maryland!

This place obviously prides itself on great service, artistry, and cleanliness. I really look forward to coming back for another appointment!

This is such a good piercing place in Pittsburgh! I haven't been to any others in Pittsburgh to be…read morefair, but I trust this place a lot. They're very skilled, knowledgeable, and clean (which is so important for a piercing place.) The guy who does piercings is so cool and really friendly. He's very helpful with advising you about pain levels, with telling you how to clean your piercing, and with helping you pick out your jewelry; he's also very patient as you're deciding where the piercing should go. He makes you feel really calm and less nervous when getting the actual piercing too, which I appreciate a lot. I've gotten pierced here on two separate days and have had great experiences with him both times. He also works really fast, so you're in and out with a new piercing pretty quickly. Piercing prices are honestly really reasonable for the quality and service you're getting. My friend's piercing fell out after she got it done here and she came back and they helped her put it back in safely. No complaints here! PSA they do 2 piercings for the price of 1 on Tuesdays, but the wait can get REALLY long since everyone and their mom shows up on that day for the deal. Would advise going earlier to secure your spot if you're going on Tuesday, otherwise you'll make the piercing guy stay hours past closing :( The waiting area inside is pretty limited (only a few couches) so if it's really crowded you might have to leave and come back. Also Sushi Kim 2 right next door is the perfect place for dinner if you're waiting for your piercing during dinner time. It's some of the best sushi and Korean food in the city. Highly recommend checking it out :)

I've been following this place on Instagram for weeks, and I finally made it in for a piercing…read more First off, the outside entrance is super cute and the aesthetic is just lovely. When you step inside, you'll see their jewelry case with all genuine metal, hypoallergenic pieces that you can leave in forever. They have a range of options, including gold, diamond, and cubic zirconia. A friendly lady at the front will guide you through all the jewelry options. I chose this place because of its cute, dainty jewelry, which is perfect if you like smaller pieces. The process is straightforward: you pay separately for the piercing and the jewelry. The piercing itself is $60, and you'll need to buy the stud or back piece, which costs an additional $18. The jewelry ranges from $85 and up. My final cost was around $300 for a genuine gold piece with a real diamond. The studio was clean, and the piercer was incredibly knowledgeable, laid-back, and easy to talk to. I'm already planning my next visit and looking forward to getting another piercing. We even mapped out my ear for future piercings!
