Moving to a new city and finding a great (and reputable) piercing studio is a tricky one. You want…read moreto befriend a piercer for all your sparkling needs and find a front of house to help in curations, custom orders and more. After leaving a studio who did all that and more for me on the east coast, mid-ear project, I was on the hunt. GoodLife is appointment only, with reputable piercers, jewelry options and a cleanliness that reminds you of a fancy (but cool) drs office. NGL my first visit, I was welcomed by a tough FOH. I'd be lying if it wasn't the first time I've encountered a person who treated someone who is not as alt presenting differently. BUT my knowledge of jewelry and brands, placements and piercing upkeep is thorough and the reason I bothered driving 45 mins to this studio. Upon making my appointment I picked out Kelly, who JUST so happened to work that weekend. They were AHMAZING, sweet, professional, and made you feel good. And for me, it was good enough to keep coming back. They introduced me to Ezra, the studio manager, for a custom order placement and that interaction continued to make up for the initial not so great check in. I've been back 2 more times since and have had great service each time. I've been introduced to Marissa as well and look forward to having a second piercer to work with on my ears. Folks know but its like tattoo artists, you just end up with your go-tos. They have great jewelry options and will work with you to order outside of any of the brands in their cases, custom or otherwise. Go get poked and sparkly!

Now in my 40's with a daughter it had to go. I brought in a design, worked it over with Chad and got it inked on, big tree about ¾ sleeve or larger. I'll be going back in a month for the shading. I did mention it was big. I was able to see other interactions with customers of all types and each was very friendly and outreaching. Be prepared to answer a lot of questions about what you really want. They want you to be happy. No issues with my appointment times and price was right. TIP your artist! I found them by word of mouth. Three separate people from random places in a row suggested the shop and now I suggest it to you. JR

Got a call on Sunday that my drawing was done and that I could stop in at anytime to take a look at…read moreit. Thursday, I leave from Columbus after work to pick up my mom in the Massillon area (2 hrs away) to go look at the drawing. Thought we were going to be looking at a drawing of my dog's paw print with a heart inside of it and if all looked good, scheduling time for the both of us to get tattoos. That's not exactly what happened. We walked in to be shown a print out of a Google image. A Google image that I attached to my design form to be used as reference for the placement of the heart in the paw...that was the "drawing" they presented us with. The "drawing" was thoughtfully and carefully done (/s) by Blair who didn't really seem to care much that he had made such a blunder when he did finally speak up from the side of the room. A GOOGLE IMAGE!!!!!!!! At no point did anyone at Art Bomb think "Why is this lady paying $50 for a drawing when all she wants is this Google image of a generic paw print with a heart in the middle?". I had previously been in contact with someone at Art Bomb via email (explained what I was wanting, two tattoos were being done and provided a picture of an actual paw print from our dog) and per their instruction I completed the design form online. I added three attachments and a description of the tattoo. The "Continued Description" indicated that I had added three attachments and that if they didn't get all three to let me know as I was only seeing one of the three but it was also showing that I had attached three documents/pics. It looked odd enough for me to bring it to their attention only for them to ignore it. I also indicated that two of them were scans so that may be the problem. Shortly after submitting the design form, I received a call from Art Bomb. I inquired if they had received all of the attachments to which she replied "yes". She was calling to find out if I wanted my tattoo drawing to look just like the picture. I thought they had all three attachments so I had no clue I needed to respond in a manner other than saying yes because I wanted the tattoo to look exactly like my dog's paw print which was done with an ink pad. The info I typed was not legible on their end. They obviously didn't receive two of the three attachments as I was told on the phone. No one cared to look at the "Continued Description" or reach out to me to let me know that they couldn't read it. What a waste of time. Two thumbs down. On my lengthy drive back to Columbus that night, I called Art Bomb and inquired if one was to submit a design form request and paid $50 + tax if they would actually get a drawing or just a print out of a Google image. She hung up on me. Then was told via email that I was "slightly inconvenienced" and that a bad Google review is me trying to injure a small business. I think Blair is injuring their small business. He's mentioned A LOT in the negative reviews. Be happy, healthy and safe.

We decided on Artistic Expressions because of the great Yelp reviews from other customers. We brought in photos of tattoos that inspired what we'd like to get.

I chose the area between my inner elbow and underarm for my tattoo. Some say this is a particularly rough area. Brian was patient, encouraging and the tattoo was finished before I felt like I couldn't continue. I have gotten some great feedback on my tattoo. I love it.
