12 oz. Studios Tattoos and Piercing Brooklawn

"I would not recommend coming here for a first piercing or any piercing in general. The atmosphere with the piercer Luis Garcia was very hostile, condescending, and intimidating especially for people who have anxiety or are nervous. He was very rude and angry.I came here on my birthday to pierce my nostril I felt like the placement was off and I told him if he could move it to the right he told me that he couldn’t go “right” he could only go forwards, back, etc… I was confused on directions he was giving me and tried to explain to him but he cut me off multiple times and I still wasn’t getting it instead of trying explain he just raised his voice and repeated himself and when it didn’t work he got visibly upset and raise his voiced and repeated it again as if it would work he was condescending throughout the whole experience. He made smart condescending remarks with a lot of attitude when I was concerned about bleeding he said “yea that happens on human days”and before that got mad that I didn’t think the placement was correct and blamed me for making him late to his other appointments I can honestly say I was 5-10 minutes late but once I got there we had to wait about 20-25 minutes for him to pierce me. I came here last year for a piercing everything was ok he was still condescending and hostile but wasn’t necessarily rude the process was smooth seemed hygienic and the price was reasonable so I’m not sure what happened this time. I don’t know if he is the owner or not but his behavior was not professional at all and he should work on getting over his personal feelings on his own time and not take his frustration and insecurities out on the clients who are getting permanent things done to their body. He rushed the process and didn’t properly close the piercing I had to take the bottoms piece off and close it properly on my own at home. Both times the receptionist were really nice and welcoming I’ve only had a problem with him."

"Followed Luis on TikTok not realizing he was a local piercer, once I found out he was local I knew I needed to book an appointment with him for a specialty piercing. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, the healing, and the risks. He is truly a professional, with years of knowledge and accumulation of techniques. He answered all of my questions without condescension and made me feel confident and safe during the procedure. He is adamant about proper anatomy and jewelry quality, and has the persons safety and comfort as a top priority. 10 out of 10 would recommend"

"Luis is the best! I went to him back in 2017 and refuse to go to anyone else. So happy he’s in jersey now! He’s so professional, thorough, and quick. He explains everything so well and walks you through the whole process and placement. Not to mention he’s super sanitary and the entire shop was very clean! Already booked my next visit!"

"Amazing, easy experience. Drove over from Pittsburgh to receive a surface piercing from Luis and it was 100% worth it. Very calming and quick with his technique. Definitely planning on taking another trip out to get more work done!"

"Got my eyebrow pierced by Luis Garcia. Absolutely wonderful experience. Luis thoughtfully explained everything and took great care of me. Will definitely be back for all my piercing and tattoo needs. Highly recommend."
