I have multiple tattoos done by Ashley and Mario at body gallery and I am obsessed with all of them! I recommend going to them for all of your tattoo and piercing needs! The shop is incredibly clean and organized and all of the staff is super friendly and helpful with any needs you have! I’d give 10 stars if I could!!

I can not recommend this place enough! Everybody there at the shop is absolutely amazing! I originally went in to get ear piercing with my niece and my sister, while I was in town visiting. They took very good care of us. Multiple choices, stuff for cleaning. Super nice and very thoughtful and thorough. Numerous comments on my ear piercing. I also spoke with one of rheir tattoo artist Justin about potentially coming back in for a tattoo. My mother passed away last August and Ive been wanting to do something in honor of her. I spoke with Justin about my ideas and my thoughts and he was absolutely wonderful. He looked at me and he said I know how sentimental and how much this means to you. Ill take good care of you. I just felt it inside that he was going to just do right by me and he did absolutely amazing. One of my mothers favorite flowers was lilacs. I sent him a couple of different ideas and when I came in for my appointment a few days later he had everything already lined up on the piece of paper. I was able to go through and check different fonts for myself and found just the perfect one that I was looking for. My sisters and I all got teary eyed when I showed them what Justin had accomplished. I cant thank him enough. I get so many compliments on my tattoo and its only four days old!! Another client was there getting flower tattoo curved around the one side of the knee and on the other side of the knee and it came up looking absolutely beautiful. My sister and her husband are are going to come here instead of their usual tattoo parlor. MAKE AN APPT, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!!

Had the best experience with Amber at Body Gallery!My friends and I were in the area all the way from Wisconsin. Without knowing anything really about the shop, we booked with Amber. She was sooo kind and welcoming to all of us. She provided such a fun and professional atmosphere. Most importantly her work is stunning! We are in love with our tattoos.We will be back to see her on our next trip!

I had 2 helix piercings done by Mallory on Friday the 13th, and it was a great experience! She was very friendly and took a lot of time working with me on placement. The shop itself was very clean and inviting. Staff were all kind. Good pricing for piercings ($80 for 2 helix with jewelry). Would definitely go here again and recommend others to do the same.

Lost track of how many tattoos I’ve gotten here. Everyone is amazing and so welcoming! Justin is my artist and he does an amazing job every single time. He knows exactly what I want and does some of the most beautiful work. Genuinely, everyone at the shop are the nicest people! I would recommend them in a heartbeat

Got my tattoo with Justin Peacock. Absolutely amazing work and this is the second time I’ve gone back now to get work from him. He has some of the best traditional work Ive seen and both tattoos have come out perfect. He’s a super down to earth guy and and his tips on after care are excellent! Would highly recommend both the body gallery and Justin if you want your next great tattoo!!

Don’t go anywhere else but here!I had the best experience here and I couldn’t recommend them more. The second you walk in the door you get such a creative and professional vibe. Mario, the owner of the shop did a small, but very meaningful tattoo for me. He has a great personality, their shop is clean, and most importantly his work is fantastic. From a big tattoo to a small, they all require detail, and he’s on point.

Mario and Ashley are super talented and awesome artists. They make me feel comfortable every time I go in to get tattooed. Super clean and the atmosphere is great! Mario has done these amazing pieces on me and Ashley did some amazing work on my husband too.

The waiting area is clean and welcoming, staff greeted me promptly and were friendly, tattoo artist was helpful and bubbly and booked my appointment with a deposit. However, in the end, the artist and I did not have the same vision so we parted amicably.It takes a lot of skill and talent to draw beautiful, life-like images on a human body with a needle full of ink; HOWEVER, tattoo artists are a part of the service industry. Please try and remember that you are PERMANENTLY inking an image on MY BODY while I pay you to do so. I should have 100% control of what that image looks like. Until we have an established artist/client relationship there is no trust built yet and there should be ZERO expectation for you to have free artistic creativity.

These are some of the beautiful pieces I’ve had done by Ashley! She has been my go to artist since 2014. She has brought my ideas to reality with her special eye and touch on sketches and I couldn’t be happier than to show off pieces of her work everyday for the rest of my life. I get so many compliments on my ink from strangers nearly every day I’m out in public. Her and Mario have a beautiful shop and run a amazing, professional, and friendly business. It’s been amazing to watch both her and Mario grow not only as artists but as business owners. I will always recommend them both when asked where I got my ink from. Thank you for these beautiful masterpieces I get to enjoy! I look forward to getting more ink from them in the future :)

I got a cartilage piercing for a late birthday gift and the people there are so chill and so nice. The place in general is so cool and I felt so calm there despite being nervous. I don’t want to butcher his name but Mario did my piercing and he was so reassuring and funny and it really helped with my nerves. The piercing was done quickly and he helped me a lot with the products for care and recommendations for piercing jewelry. Definitely gonna come here again

The Body Gallery is an exceptional tattoo and piercing studio where artistry meets professionalism. Amber, my tattoo artist, exemplified skill, kindness, and sweetness throughout my experience. Her talent brought my vision to life flawlessly. Mario, who pierced my daughter, was patient, personable, and simply amazing. The studio maintains impeccable cleanliness, and the ambiance is elevated by fantastic music, creating the perfect vibe for a memorable experience. I highly recommend The Body Gallery for anyone seeking top-notch body art services.

Review №16

This tattoo/piercing shop is by far the best I’ve been too. For having no experience or knowledge on the art they perform I wasn’t just in there getting a quick piercing! The lady working front desk taught me how to care for the piercings I received and I especially loved how laid back and welcoming she was. This shop is definitely built on honesty and respect for their clients. My piercer Mario really knew what he’s doing and saved me from choosing a piercing that would’ve caused me problems in the future. Instead we decided on going for a different option that I absolutely love and eventually will add more too!

Justin and Mallory are the best. Excellent customer service, clean and comfortable shop, and machines well the machine is not comfortable lol. I got my knuckles done. Justin created a one of a kind design that was exactly what I needed. The entire staff is cool and friendly. When I walked in the restroom I knew Id found people with the same Dumb and Dumber humor. I definitely recommend.

Ashley did my tattoo, it was my second one however I hadn’t had one for over 20 years. I was nervous, she was calm and patient and it didn’t hurt a bit! Her artwork is incredible! She used a picture of my mom to create a piece with all the elements I asked her for, and made sure I was happy! I will definitely go to see Ashley again! The tattoo shop is comfortable and caters to all clients (unlike another local one that I visited, which I felt uncomfortable in) The shop is very clean as well! Go to the shop, look at the books, and pick which artist style suits you!

I had an appointment with Mario to get a tattoo done I drew up 10 years ago, and I waited for the right time. I gave Mario my drawing and seeing I wanted it on my hand some edits needed to be made. Mario did an amazing job keeping it as I drew but also his own take; aside from that his artistic, tattooing skills, and not to forget he has a great personality that makes you comfortable for the entire sitting. I can’t wait to go back to have more work done. Thank you Mario.

I had the most amazing experience going to Ashley for this tattoo! She is truly talented and cares about her work. I booked her months ago, and she followed up with me promptly to make sure she planned what we were doing and executed it perfectly. The salon is beautiful and clean, everyone was professional, polite, and respectful. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely recommend her and absolutely would get more tattoos from her. Amazing work! Thank you, Ashley!!

Cody did such an amazing job on my tattoo! He was prepared before I even walked in the door and we got started right away. His hand was also super light so the pain was the absolute minimum I’ve ever personally felt for a tattoo. I strongly recommend coming here for your tattoos and definitely ask for Cody.

Chris Bren is a killer artist and super cool dude. Blasted my stomach and was concerned about my comfort the entire time. Kept giving me words of encouragement to help me get through it. If you’re looking for an awesome American traditional tattoo artist I highly recommend him. The entire shop is awesome and they have a wide variety of artists with different styles. Check out Chris and this shop. You won’t be disappointed.

Oh gosh, where do I begin!? Mario and Ashley run an amazing place! By far the cleanest shop I’ve ever been in! They follow all the health guidelines by the book! Their sanitation protocol is second to none. I’ve watched them change their gloves over and over during a sitting. If they need to open a cabinet for something, they are changing their gloves, if they need to answer the phone, they are changing their gloves, etc. They take great pride on how they run their shop. Now for their talent…..Ashley has done many tattoos of mine. The amount of heart and soul she puts into her artwork is truly inspiring. She truly loves what she does and she loves making people happy and feel confident about themselves even more! Mario created a very special piece for me that included the heartbeat of someone very close to me who passed away from cancer. I trusted Mario to be the one to give my son his very first tattoo which came out awesome and my son absolutely loves! I’ve seen many pieces that Mario has done and every one is just as awesome as the next. Amber is another artist they have. I don’t have anything by her, but I’ve seen her work in person and it’s pretty amazing as well. I highly recommend this shop when looking for someone to create that special piece you’re looking for. You will never go wrong here!

Review №33

Only giving two instead of one star because I got my eyebrows done here and they turned out fine. I had an appointment to get my bridge done today only to be told “The jewelry hasn’t come in yet and we’ll have to reschedule to Friday.” You couldn’t have called me instead of making me drive 30 minutes here to find that out? Totally unprofessional. I’ve never even heard of a place not having the jewelry so that was weird… So I went to level up and they told me I don’t even have even have the proper anatomy for this piercing anyway, go figure. 🤷🏻‍♀️Edited to add my response to your response: Respectfully, I don’t understand how you were able to tell that I had the correct anatomy I needed for this piercing when you didn’t examine my bridge at all. You didn’t touch it or even look at it up close. I literally said I want my bridge done and the conversation immediately went into scheduling for it to be done. When I went to level up Jena told me right away that she needed to check my anatomy and she did examine and touch it to make sure I had enough room and then told me she did not recommend it. Yes I probably should’ve made sure you checked but I was not thinking about it at the moment. Thank you for doing a good job on my eyebrows but I won’t be back.

This is a husband and wife owned business. Mario (one of the owners) was the one that gave me the best tattoo ever. (I had 4 tats prior to this one.) His line work is amazing. We talked the entire session. He is so knowledgeable, and professional. He made me feel at ease. The shop is extremely clean. This is one of many tats that Ill be getting. I highly recommend this shop. You wont regret itUPDATE -- I had a vision for a background, and Mario nailed it. Now my mom and dad are together again

Body Gallery is my only place that I go to to get the best of the best. Mario and his wife Ashley are both amazing people. I got my memorial tattoo from Mario and it represents my person all to well. Made me tear up just seeing the drawing. After the session he explained to me the new aftercare Snake oil that works way better than the other product that I use. I am very satisfied with my new tattoo. Thank you again. Recommend this place 100%

First time here, it was recommended. I went for the Flash sale they had! Such a great deal, it ran smoothly, and I didn’t have to wait very long. Ashley was my artist, very gentle. I barely felt it and she was pretty cool to talk to as well. The design was pre drawn, I love the end result! The shop itself was very clean, and stylish! Everyone was professional, yet laid back. I’ll definitely be back!

Mario was awesome! Our 5 year old went in today and Mario was warm, welcoming, understanding and created the perfect environment for her to feel comfortable. The shop was clean and tidy. This was exactly what we were looking for on her big day. He acknowledged her and spoke directly to her throughout the process. She was treated with respect and we appreciated Mario for it. If you’re looking for a clean, not scary, professional piercer, look no further. Mario thank you for a great experience all around! Telling all who ask about this great shop!

I made the trip all the way from Illinois to get an animal crossing tattoo by Cody! I follow his work on social media and was excited to add his work to my skin gallery.Everyone in the shop was super kind and easy going. They had lots of walk ins and they were super professional and inviting to everyone that came in.My tattoos turned out even better than I could have imagined, Cody is a true pro! He’s easy to chat with if you feel like talking but doesn’t mind quiet time either. He tattoos hella fast and you can tell he’s mindful about how he works so he’s not torturing you during the process.Port Charlotte is lucky to have this shop of friendly talented artists in their town!The prices are crazy reasonable, especially compared to where I live— so you’re extra lucky to get this quality of work (that lasts forever) for these prices!

I was tattooed by Cody Parsons (nailed.to.the.x on Instagram) and I am absolutely in love with the piece! He was super friendly and cool, as are all the people in this shop. They’re also very reasonably priced for the quality you receive, so if you’re around, consider them for your next tattoo!!

Mario and Ashley are a duo that can’t be competed with. I knew when they opened this shop they’d do great things. Including piercings! Mario is now doing piercings and I never felt more comfortable behind a needle; tattoo wise or having a steel bar put into me 🤣 Mario also pierced my daughters earlobes for her 7th birthday this January, (they start offering it at age 5.) It did not go as smooth as I thought it would and my daughter backed out after her first lobe. Mario was kind, empathetic and understanding when it comes to nerves. He helped my little one out and ended up getting her 2nd lobe done with his cheerful bubbly personality. If your child is interested in their earlobes being pierced please skip the line at Claire’s and $5 jewelry and go ahead and hit up Mario. He is genuinely a person to cares about if people leave satisfied.

My mom and I made an appointment with Mario to get some piercings. I got my upper lip done and my mom had 2nd holes done for her ears. It was so quick and painless. Mario was delightful and knowledgeable all throughout our appointment. I felt welcomed and safe with him and within the shop which, for me, is most important in a tattoo/piercing shop. I will definitely be back for my next piercing.

Review №57

Not only is Mario an incredibly talented artist he’s also one of the chillest down to earth people I know. My absolute favorite thing about him is that he always makes you feel comfortable by respecting your personal space. Asking for permission to do certain things. Etc. As a woman, that’s a huge deal. Sometimes certain areas you’re getting tattooed can make you feel a little vulnerable and there’s some artists out there that get really inappropriate. So it’s really awesome to know you’re in a safe place. I love all the work Mario has done for me. He takes his time to make sure he gets the details right. He insists that you’re 150% sure you’re happy with everything before he even starts because he wants you to be happy with the art that’s going to live with you forever. All around he’s really just the bomb. His whole staff too. Him and wife Ashley always have everyone laughing. Everyone literally is so friendly which just adds to comfortability of the shop. I recommend literally all of them to everyone all the time. They’re all amazing.

Updated - Ashley has done many more tattoos on us both and we couldn’t be more pleased. Her kindness and thoughtfulness are reflected in her dedication to making sure you are completely happy. Her artistic vision and style are amazing and her work is top-notch. Thank you Ashley for putting your heart and soul into your work. It definitely shows. 💜My husband & I received our first tattoos here from Ashley. She did a wonderful job and the shop is really nice. All the artists and the piercer were very nice and friendly.

I’ve been going to Jena (the piercer) for about two years now and she’s so great. She’s so good at what she does, she educates her clients on aftercare and even let’s them message her personally if there’s any issues. I’ve also had two tattoos done here, one by Mario and one by Cody. Both did an absolutely AMAZING job and were again, very clear on aftercare. The environment is overall super welcoming, clean and professional while simultaneously being super funny and kind. This shop is truly a gem. Absolutely recommend.

My siblings and I came in to get a matching sibling tattoo. Mario was awesome and set us up with an appointment. When we came in everything was ready and the atmosphere was great. He even took the extra time to explain everything to the youngest sibling and ensured her everything would be great. Told her what part he was going to tattoo first and when she needed to be still. Super clean shop as well. Already making more arrangements to go back and get some touch ups done and one fixed! Thanks Mario we couldn’t have asked for a better artist and we are glad that we have a great memory not just with each other but with you as well !

Highly recommend this business! Tina was absolutely fantastic, shes super nice and very knowledgeable. Im so happy with my nostril piercing.Even noticed how talented the tattoo artists were while I was waiting to be taken back, and while checking out. I will definitely be back for any and all my piercing and tattoo needs** edit: I wish I could give Tina more than 5 stars. The first time I got my nose pierced it was by someone else at a totally different shop, and the healing process was a nightmare - so much so that I was nervous to even re-pierce my nose. This time around has been completely different. I dont know what kind of magic Tina did but Id get 100 more piercings if they went as smoothly and pain free as this one!

Review №63

I’ve had two tattoos here so far, & Mario has been nothing short of exceptional when it came to not only delivering pure artistic form in his work, but also being able to consider the wants of the customer in order to make the tattoo to their liking. I’ve always been impressed by his work (& Ashley’s, who i will most likely book an appointment with in the future as well), & I already plan on going back with more cool ideas that I’m sure they’d have no problem taking on the challenge for. If you’re looking for quality work, with the addition of being in an environment you can feel comfortable in, I definitely recommend Body Gallery! It’ll be hard to consider going anywhere else for any future ‘big’ pieces.

So, today my best friend and I came in and both got pierced and tattooed. The piercer, Jenna, was phenomenal. She was sweet and professional. She was meticulous in her work and knew what she was doing. My friend got her nose pierced and it looks great. I got my second holes in my ears done and it was awesome as well. We were tattooed by Cody and he was great as well. We were very lucky to come in with a prepared concept and we’re able to be scheduled and tatted today and the quality of work was amazing there, too. The sketch was pretty. Perfectly placed and sized. The shop was just super clean. I’m not from this state but when I visit again I’m definitely going back. 10/10, and I’ve been pierced a lot.

Hes very passionate about what he does and it shows in the quality of work.If youre worried about cost their prices are very fair, especially compared to other local shops.10/10 would recommend!!

When I first walked into the shop I was amazed. The shop looks so clean. I first spoke with Tina about my tattoo idea (me and my wife getting suprize tattoos for each other on our anniversary.) She was so cool and excited about our idea and got us started. They went over the schedule with me and my wife and where very accommodating for our time schedule because we had a trip planned after the tattoos.When we arrived to get the tattoos Mario was the artist and he took our planning for the tattoos to be a secret reveal super seriously which was amazing. He was very smooth and made you feel super comfortable through the whole process. He really takes the art he does personally and puts the time and work in. The atmosphere was awesome. Mario his wife and some other crew members chatted with us and made the whole experience really fun. It was like I was part of the crew.

Jena did my nose piercing and did a great job. She was very reassuring and pain was minimal. I would definitely recommend her for any piercings.The next day, Mario gave me and my nieces matching tattoos. Mario was kind and personable. Most shops that I’ve been to, the artists lack personality and bedside manner, but Mario was great and made us all feel comfortable. His work is impeccable and clean. The shop is super clean and welcoming. 5 star rating from all 3 of us.

Review №71

UNSAFE for autistic folk and women.Traveled here specifically from North Carolina for a tattoo from an artist who no longer works there. Upon arrival, Mario was very friendly, asking if wed been helped, but after that, we, my autistic friend and I, started to notice more of his unprofessional behaviors.For starters, he constantly butts in on other peoples conversations giving his opinion on where to go, but words it like it is an order rather than a suggestion. Secondly, at one point my friend was sitting with their knees to their chest because the shop music was a little loud for them, so they were self soothing. Mario came out of the back and snapped at them to put their feet down. We understand that he is allowed to have a no shoes on the couch policy, but saying, feet off the couch was rude and unnecessary.The last thing that Mario said that made me and my friend uncomfortable, and clearly affected some of the artists as well, was when he called an artists music choice music to get your period to.edit: apparently he was gifted a framed picture of this review and has it hung up on the wall. do with this info what you will

These guys are great! I had an issue with a nose piercing I had done elsewhere that Tina helped me get all healed and even picked out some awesome studs to get later. Mario did our anniversary tattoos for my husband and I and made it so much fun! His work is top notch! I already have another appt this month for more ink! Thank you guys keep being awesome.

Went in for a tattoo from Cody today and had an amazing experience overall. Cody was incredible! Very kind, funny and creative. The tattoo is everything I wanted and more. The entire staff had a positive attitude and interacted with each other like professionals and friends. No toxic environment like at other shops I’ve been to in the past. Prices were good and the art was amazing. I’ll definitely be back to get another tattoo by Cody!

I have received detailed tattoos by Mario and piercings by Tina. Mario may be my number one go-to for artists but I would feel comfortable getting work done by anyone in there. The quality of work he has in this establishment by him and other artists set the bar high for other shops. This place is clean and professional. Tina has the utmost professional piercing room. Everything is sanitized, you see her medical display of tools and equipment as she lays it out for you, in its own wrapper. Her professionalism and fair warning of what to expect is nothing less of exceptional. I will be continuing to seek out body work from this shop. It’s my number one recommendation!

I went in last evening to have my nose pierced again. Jena was super nice, soft spoken and very patient. I fully expected it to hurt just as it had the last two (2) times...nope, it was over in an instant. My friend who went with me ended up getting her belly button redone last night as well.Ive also had a tattoo done by Ashley. Her work is fantastic. I gave her an idea of what I wanted and she drew up what I couldnt imagine in my own mind. I also was lucky enough to have commissioned her to design the logo for our boat, which I have on items from cups and shirts to stickers and hats. Shes a fantastic artist!Highly recommend going to this establishment!

Such amazing work at this shop! I wouldnt trust many tattoo artists or piercers but I would trust anyone here! Ashley is such a bright energy, extremely skilled and talented, and does everything perfect! Mario and Cody are also so kind and helpful and everyone greets with bright smiles and laughs! I watched Ashley go above and beyond to clean her work station and the shop itself is immaculate! Great pricing, great work, great people, great shop! Came all the way from Louisiana! Have known and followed Ashley and Cody for years and they never cease to amaze!

Ashley and Mario are both phenomenal tattoo artists. Ashley has done my work and I have not been slightly disappointed yet, she has also done a lot of rework on some not so good tattoos and made them look 10 times better. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a highly talented and super detailed artist to go to Body Gallery tattoo shop. They have a very chill and relaxed atmosphere with chill vibes and very personable and charismatic personalities and the shop is always super clean and welcoming! Definitely give them a visit and see for yourself

So I left this initial review a year ago when I first went to the shop cause they most definitely earned all 5 stars!They once again today earned another 5 stars. My daughter & myself went in today for matching ink for her 18th birthday. I let her pick it & Mario did the work. My daughter was extremely indecisive about what she wanted done but once Mario was done drawing her up a little something she was immediately sold. Great people. Great experience. Extremely clean shop & great work!So glad we chose to stick with them!Thank you Mario for our forever memory.

I love this place Ashley is really really talented. I find that she has very good skills in details! That means a lot in art and tattoos. My mother and I went to get matching mother & daughter tattoos they are the best tattoos we have got and going back again and telling others that’s the place to go. I honestly have to say it’s hard to find a good place and artist and she has very good skills. Don’t go by me look at her work and you will know what I mean. Thanks Ashley!

So in love with my new tattoo! I can’t thank Mario Mackiewicz enough for doing such an amazing job! I gave him some ideas of what I wanted but I could not find the “perfect” picture when I came in today and seen what he had drawn up it was exactly what I envisioned! Mario and the staff are so incredibly sweet and kind! Mario is all about taking his time to make sure his clients are happy, comfortable and satisfied!

Review №108

When you decide to get a tattoo, there are numerous factors to think about. Is this artist affordable? Do they posses the skill set necessary to bring your vision to life? Is the artist mindful of your needs and your safety? Ashley is all of those things and then some. She has charisma, talent, insight, experience, patience and a great sense of humor. My wife and I drive three hours to the shop because Ashley is worth it. We would travel further if it ever became necessary to do so. Until Ashley, I spent hours researching what shops had the best ratings, which artists had the most awards, always uncertain on who to trust with such a crucial decision. It is such a relief that I no longer have to do such things. Ashleys work will speak for itself. Ashley as a person/artist however is extraordinary and I am proud to call her my tattoo artist.

Jena did my nose piercing for the second time the first time she did absolutely amazing but my puppy ripped it right out of my face about 7 months ago so I went back to Jena last night and she re did my right nose piercing and I got my left side done as well and I love it. I will be going back to get a tattoo coverup and more tattoos because the people there are so nice and respectful and their shop is always clean. I wouldn’t want anyone else near my face with needles other then Jena she is absolutely the best. I will be seeing y’all soon again

Review №121

As having my first time tattoo , I honestly was honored to have the owner ,Mario , to be my artist. I went with a girlfriend who also just lost her father to have their signatures turned into what happened to be amazing tattoos. Mario’s patience dealing with my overwhelming emotional neediness and wanting perfection is second to none. My dads signature is very detailed and the artist NAILED it. It is stunning, I can not stop looking at it and it brings me so much comfort.The studio was clean ( during covid , beyond important) and inviting. Staff was nothing but professional leading up to and during the appointment.I can not say enough about Mario and his staff.My mom saw my MOM saw my tattoo and is making an appt to get the same exact one. Thank you for allowing me to a part of this studio. I’ll never forget this experience

Today I got pierced by Jena, I highly recommend Jena she is as an excellent and knowledgeable piercer. Not only is she exceptional in her work, she took the time to help me calm down and talked me through everything distracting me from the pain. She was super sweet and even gave me a little squishy toy to hold to help with my anxiety. I’m extremely grateful for her excellent work and kindness.This shop over all is a 11/10 and I would recommend it to anyone. 😊

Review №125

Contrary to what Douglas thinks, Mario is a pretty stand-up guy who does great work and he stands behind that work. Cant say that I have ever heard anything negative about his customer service skills or his work in the past, so Im think Douglas might not understand how things work, maybe he had a bad day, wife might have left him, who knows, or maybe he is just a flat out grumpy dude that likes to complain when he doesnt get what he wants. Either way, go see Mario at Body Gallery Tattoo!

I had a fabulous experience with Cody here at Body Gallery Tattoo! I am not local to Port Charlotte but I made the almost 2 hour trip from Tampa specifically for Cody and I am blown away by the tattoo I received! I have a few tattoos now, all from different artists literally around world, and the one I received from Cody is by far my favorite. I got Deku from MHA tattooed on my right bicep. The price was excellent, the quality is top notch, the saturation on the color is just beautiful! I have received so many compliments and I could not be happier. 13/10 would make the two hour trip again!

It also had things not to do so I wouldnt risk getting an infection. Overall it was a great experience and would 10/10 recomend.

I went in to see if I could get a tattoo that would either cover or mask my scars. I was treated horribly by Ashley. I told her that I had scars and she said no problem. When I got there she was upset because she didn’t think she could do the tattoo. She was grossed out and it was visible by her expression. She did end up doing the tattoo, which turned out alright. She didn’t speak to me the entire session. It was very awkward and uncomfortable. I didn’t even go back to get it touched up by her because I honestly never want to see her again.

This was my first tattoo and even tho it was very small, Cody explained everything. He was friendly, fun. Actually everyone working there seemed nice. The place looked spotless. And my tattoo looks great! I highly recommend Body Gallery.

I went in to get my bellybutton pierced by Jena, turns out my old piercing had not closed up and she was able to get the jewelry through without redoing it. She gave me a full refund and I only paid jewelry + tip. She was so professional and inviting throughout the entire experience and I will absolutely be going back here for any piercings I may need!

Absolutely satisfied with my recent visit to Body Gallery . The owners Ashley and Mario are both exceptional artists whose main focus is clients leaving overly satisfied with their new tattoos or piercings . A sanitary and hygienic business that makes you feel calm and inviting as you glance around the room . I would highly recommend this business as they work tediously with you to ensure you leave ecstatic ready for your next visit .

Everyone at the shop is super inviting and really accommodating. I’ve been tattooed by Joe and Cody and both did phenomenal work. They’re kind, they work quickly, and everyone is very professional. The parlor is an all around great place to get tattooed and I would highly recommend.

My friend and I were accommodated very last minute and had the greatest tattoo experience ever. Ashley was super caring and precise. Great family vibe in the shop. If we didn’t live so far we would only come here for future work!! 10/10 ❤️

After doing much research to find a good body piercer I came across Jena & I read all of her amazing reviews . I can honestly say that they were all so true . Jena made me feel so comfortable through my whole visit and was very clean and informative on what she will be doing and how to take care of the piercing afterwards. I will definitely be recommending her to others ! Thanks Jena !

I recently got my nose pierced with Jena, and it was an amazing experience. Jena was extremely professional and made me feel very comfortable. She also was able to pierce with a hoop, which is what I really wanted. This was by far my best piercing experience. :)

Got my nipples pierced by Jenna. Considering where the piercings are I felt very comfortable with her. She definitely makes the effort to keep the energy in the room calm and stress free. Gave me the pointers I needed for the best healing process. 5 out of 5. Would recommend. Lol

Got my helix (cartilage) pierced with a friend who was super nervous. They did a wonderful job with both our piercings. Clean, but still really easy to do as a walk in. Great people and place!

Came in last week to get my tongue pierced; Jena explained to me why I shouldn’t, and the dangers that it held due to the webbing on my tongue. Came in today and had her do my nose, and I’m in love! She’s the sweetest person ever, and professional while making you feel comfortable during the process. Can’t wait for my next trip back 💕
