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!

From what I've seen of Joe's ink on the bodies of a variety of folk that I either designed said…read morework for or know personally, he does quality work. Any tattoo artist who can hammer down all the necessary nuances of Hebrew on the twitching skin of one of my old friends gets props in my book. They've got a piercer on staff who seems to do good work, too, although she understandably struggled to healthily re-pierce my beloved's belly button (whoever did it before used a freaking earring - I kid you not). They've moved within the past two years into a new building slightly to the north of town - it's an odd, semi-removed location, but their reworking of the overall structure and interior of the place (it used to be a horse & tack store called The Saddlery, believe it or not, that was torched by its owner - oh, arson) has made it pretty nice. I really enjoyed the clean lines and openness of the inside, and the staff there (Joe included) are friendly and helpful. My one beef with the place is that it's quickly obvious, upon entry, that the staff and others smoke inside. For such a newer, well-put-together environment in an industry that focuses on high standards of cleanliness and sterilization, cigarette smoke clinging to everything (including your clothes when you leave after a mere half hour) is a downer. A surprisingly professional, quality tattoo shop in a town for whom "tattoo" is generally synonymous with a place called Crazy Ray's. No, I'm not kidding.
