Body Designs Tattoo & Piercing — Local services in Park Hills

Brought my sister here today for her first tattoo on her 18th birthday. Artist didn’t seem very enthusiastic or too personable. We showed up about 20 minutes early to give her time to think about what she wanted and where. Artist seemed annoyed and not helpful when my sister was trying to communicate to her about what she might want and where. They had us fill out ZERO paper work? Never have I been to a shop that didn’t take your ID and information before hand. Should have taken that as a red flag. During set up artist was pulled out of the room by the owner to have her give his client a belly button piercing. We didn’t mind to wait but notably weird. Afterwards she was given absolutely NO AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS. The artist knew it was her first tattoo yet failed to go over any basics. Since I have previously had work done at other shops I was able to go over everything with her after arriving back home. Doesn’t mean the artist should get a pass on instruction.

Okay work done. Nothing bad to say about the art itself. If it’s not your first go around I’d say this shop is fine. First time tattooers beware. I’d recommend the Slideshow over here. They are way nicer over there and really make sure you’re taken care of. Would have waited to go over there if it wasn’t for her birthday falling on a day they...

Be careful. My jewelry fell out of my cartilage/helix piercing. I went in for them to try to help me put it back in or re-pierce it. First the receptionist started asking how much I got charged for at the place I pierced it. Which i thought was strange, then he offered a price like we were haggling. I think it was 20. Then I went back with the piercer. I learned the she hadn't been doing this for long (piercing) and that she had to use the other piecers jewelry and tools. She did not have the right size jewelry to fit. She wanted to use a size 14g I do not want to stretch out or gauge my ear. The bench I sat on was dirty. You could see outlines of shoes on it and it was sticky. So it was not sterilized. Next she tried to put the jewelry in without steralizing my ear or the piercing. I had to stop her. I told her my ear had bled the night before so it and the jewelry we had touched without gloves needed to be cleaned. I left and I ended up putting it through by myself at home. She was nice but it was too...

I hade a lobes piercing service done by Ida. This was my first experience getting any piercings done aside from when I was a young child. The process was quick and easy. The staff was friendly. The environment seemed neat and clean. With the service itself, I only had my double lobes pierced so my experience may be different.

I only had a small issue with the sharpie marking of the piercing. I assumed it was typical for the client to see the markings to ensure they were happy with the placement and that did not happen. Of course I could have asked but she had the needle in my ear before I realized she did it. I am one to make sure things are perfect and when the service was done I felt they were uneven after looking more thoroughly. The piercing itself looked fine in placement of the lobe piercing already there. Just didn’t match the other ear how I would’ve hoped. That was the only thing I had an issue with. Overall it was a quick easy...
