Live By The Sword Tattoo 218 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11249

"Got pierced by Becca (Rebecca) in Williamsburg she’s fab. Did such an amazing job, fast, easy, and ultimately painless. Will definitely be seeing her for all future piercings!"

"This studio was on my list to get some extras earlobe piercings after reading all the great reviews and checking the super affordable prices (10$ each!!!). One day I realized I was pretty close so I checked if they had an opening to get them done. And they had! The front desk were super nice and friendly and then I met my piercer Becca Quinn who was extra! Extremely clean, professional, explained me every step, took the time to talk to me to understand what I wanted even if it was four simple earlobes piercings. This make all the difference of the world to me. I strongly recommend her. Plus, I am Italian, so English is not my first language, but I felt so at ease at Live by The Sword and with Becca. We chatted and laughed and honestly, I couldn’t ask for a better experience. Professional, Clean, Kind, Welcoming and Affordable! It’s a 10!!!"

"The shop was really busy but as soon as I called to ask a question someone answered immediately. When me and my friends arrived the sign in process was so quick and seamless and the person who pierced me was super kind, honest, and upbeat. Each of my cartilage piercings were $20 and very professionally done. I’m definitely going back"

"Last year I called to see if they offered a transverse lobe piercing since many shops do not. I was told they do and quoted $40. When I arrived at the shop, someone else at the shop was unsure of what the piercing looked like but he was willing to charge me $80 to complete it. Unfortunately I do not remember names but the person I spoke to on the phone was not the same person that I spoke to in the shop. I mentioned that I quoted a different price and started providing a runaround explanation so we ended up leaving. Another time, I bought jewelry from this location and the representative was very kind. She helped me choose one that fit my ear and she put it in for me. She highlighted that I had a slight bump on the piercing so I should be mindful of it. The jewelry I bought for about $40 if I remember correctly. It was beautiful but very low quality. The aforementioned bump grew so I went to a piercer in Queens to check it out. I showed him the jewelry I was pierced with and the jewelry I purchased from this location and he immediately pointed out that the jewelry from this location was low quality. When I told him where I bought the jewelry he mentioned that the quality of services and product cannot be compared to the place that I was initially pierced. I have many ear piercings and no matter where I put this jewelry, it begins to develop a bump within 48 hours. I do not recommend this location for anything beyond a lobe since it is typically less irritable."
