13 Bats Tattoo and Piercing Studio

"Got ear gauges stretched. Fun interior. Clean!! Reasonable prices. Professional and super fun and smart owners-- Sascha (piercing) Andrew (tattoos) The best conversationalists. Now I know what it's like having the best hairdresser at your beauty parlor. You know the lady, you can talk about everything with her! We talked family dysfunction to hard core SF politics and social justice to social problems with spicy outrageous repartee. SUPER FUN PLACE to get your skin punched and colored, though I haven't had a tattoo...yet!"

"Sasha is AMAZING! She did such a wonderful job piercing my nose (left nostril; tiny gold stud). I was nervous making an appointment without seeing the jewelry/studio to know if they had what I wanted & if I'd be comfortable. But, Sasha came highly recommended by another body piercer (and very positive Yelp & Google reviews--trust them!). I also emailed to ask if I should schedule a consult first and they reassured me they'd have the jewelry I was looking for (they did! plus many other super cute options!), so I went ahead and made a piercing appointment. The benefit of appt-only was that I was the only person getting a piercing, so there was very little COVID risk and no other distractions. Even though I was actually re-piercing my nose (which I originally did myself with a sewing needle as a teen, yikes!), I was still nervous about it and asked a million questions. Sasha made me feel 1000% comfortable, providing lots of details about everything including the jewelry, piercing, and after care. She did the piercing with such precision, it barely hurt at all. It's one day later and my nose doesn't even feel sore! I'm so happy with how it looks (a pretty little highlight for my face). Exactly what I wanted! Highly recommend!!"

"Loved my experience with Sasha! I was there for a cartilage piercing which is usually quite hideously painful. Sasha however made me feel so comfortable, sanitized the area diligently and gave me excellent aftercare instructions. Highly recommend!"

"I absolutely love this place! I drive all the way from Turlock just to have Sasha do all my piercing and help me with all my jewelry needs..Sasha is very kind she’s very knowledgeable..She has a huge selection of jewelry nice jewelry too! The shop is adorable and soooo clean! You won’t go wrong going to 13 bats. They are the best!!!"

"Sasha is incredible. She has such great energy and immediately puts you at ease. Every time I I’ve gotten pierced by her has been nearly painless and has healed flawlessly"
