Genuine Space Body Art

Decided to do something spontaneous and fun and had an Amazing first time experience with Tania. She is very informative, very knowledgeable. She has a beautiful cheerful friendly spirit. She makes you feel special and comfortable. Will definitely be recommending her and coming back again. I got my helix and flat pierced, loved how it turned outPrices are reasonable. jewelry starts $25+

I was so excited to see a piercing space owned and operated by a poc femme. Tania communicated clearly about what to expect throughout the visit. It was a painless, clean and respectful experience that I appreciate. I definitely plan on returning.

Tania was very nice and always provided information on the entire procedure. She is welcoming and warming, keeps you calm and always make sure you know what she is doing. My piercings were done with great care and comfort. The pricing was transparent and reasonable, and I highly recommend the shop.I happened to forget my ID for the appointment, and Tania was helpful and kind with helping me reschedule it. Basically the owner is really kind and care about the customers.

Tanya is the most professional, inclusive, considerate, and knowledgeable piercer I know. Her space is impeccably clean, and takes your health, safety, and satisfaction seriously. There is no better piercer to ensure you have a positive experience. ♡

Comforting, unique and exceptional - this is how I would describe my experience with Tania. We were best friends at once the entire time (and I hope now after). All was explained in detail beforehand. Tania helped me feel comfortable the entire time - making the experience effortless. I highly recommend!

I waited until I was almost 40 years old to pierce my ears and the only reason I finally decided to get them pierced was I saw Tania pierce a friend. Tania is incredibly kind and professional and a model for respect and communicating for consent. I cant recommend them enough.

All the stars for Tania!! What an amazing human. I’ve been wanting to get my nose pierced for awhile and did some research in my surrounding areas and Genuine Space had fantastic, comforting reviews. Everything was true! Tania is nice, sweet, fun, funny, and very thorough. Walked me through every step, even sterilizing the needle in front of me in this fancy machine. I absolutely adored her and found myself figuring out what I could pierce next because she is that good. My piercing has been healing beautifully, from day one. Thank you Tania, you amazing human.

Tania is the absolute best. Her knowledge and care for every client is unparalleled. I feel so lucky to have found her and its worth the drive over the mountain every time for top notch service. XOXO, Tavia

Wow wow wow. Tania is the sweetest most kind hearted person I have ever met. I got my septum done and was obviously nervous. She was so calming to talk to and very informative. She always asked for consent before touching my face, and she always let me know what her next step was. After I got it pierced she held my face and gently rubbed it 🥹 She will forever be by go to for pircings. Thank you ❤️❤️

I one hundred thousand percent recommend going to Tania to get pierced!Tania is so incredibly kind and welcoming. She is also wonderful at providing care instructions.Tania made me feel very safe and made sure that there was consent throughout the entire process.Could not recommend this wonderful human more!

I came here to get my ears pierced again after I let them close up for years. Tania is amazing at her profession. She explained every step and checked on my comfort level and was just generally nice and caring. I don’t get a lot of piercings but if I decide to get any more I’ll go to her without a doubt.

Ive never met a human more caring or comforting than Tania. Ive been pierced over 70 times and this was honestly the best piercing experience Ive ever had. Im so grateful that I was referred to her! Not only was she so incredibly kind, but she also did such a beautiful job on my piercing! My belly button was reconstructed after a hernia surgery so I had a ton of scar tissue in that area and assumed it would hurt quite a bit because of that. But Tania cares so much and takes her time to find the perfect placement so even with my wonky belly button, my piercing turned out absolutely beautiful! And the most impressive thing was that it didnt hurt even a fraction of what I expected!! Thats one thing Ive learned after having so many piercings is that the amount of pain is different from one arist to another. Some of them just have a magic touch that makes it hurt significantly less than others and Tania absolutely has that magic touch! I cant rave about her enough. There is just no one who compares to her skill, thoughtfulness and bedside manner. She is truly an angel.

Tania pierced my 9 yo ears and made sure it was a great experience for her. She came very highly recommended and easy to see why. My daughter said to give her 10 stars!

Tania is amazing! She made me feel so comfortable and was such a darling! She talked me through everything that she was going to do so that there weren’t any surprises. I will definitely be returning for all my future piercings, and I highly recommend checking out Genuine Space if you’re looking to get pierced.

Tania is the best piercer that Ive ever been to. She did my eyebrow and my daughters first ear piercing. She works hard to make sure her client feels comfortable, safe, and fully informed of the process and aftercare.

I absolutely loved my piercing experience with Tania. She was very nice and informative. Made me feel super comfortable. Step by step told me everything she was going to do. I will be going back. 10/10 would recommended her to anyone. Best experience I’ve ever had with a piercer.

My experience with Tania was nothing short of amazing! Not only is she passionate and educated in her practice-- she is incredibly friendly, positive, and encouraging. I had my nostril and septum pierced two weeks ago and have had no discomfort since then. Ill always suggest Genuine Space Body Art to anyone who is looking for a good quality piercer. In fact, I plan to get ALL my peircings done by Tania.If youre debating seeing Tania I urge you to set up an appointment because you WONT be disappointed!

Tania was wonderful! I went in for a septum piercing and she was very kind and informative. She made sure that I was comfortable and made sure that she had my full consent at every step of the piercing process. Her space is very clean and welcoming and I cannot recommend her enough!

We had a wonderful experience getting our 6 year old daughters ears pierced here. Tania was welcoming, kind, patient, informative, calm and so much more. Highly recommended!

TANIA is the literally the best person to get your piercing by, she literally made me feel so comfortable and she is so sweet and kind and talks you through the whole process and makes sure everything is okay with you before she does anything. shes the best and takes care of the process quick which I really love and painless Id say! definitely coming back to get more fs

The best piercing experience Ive ever had. Tania could not have been more welcoming, kind, caring, and skillful. She made sure I felt comfortable, emphasized that I could ask her anything and call if I had any issues, and was happy to change the marks for placement. Im 1000% going back to her for my next piercing and recommending her to anyone whos interested in getting pierced.

FREAKIN WOW!!! I’ve had a lot of piercings in my life and Tania is the BEST piercer I have ever had!!! Hands down!! STOP LOOKING and book with her, you will not regret it! Her sweet, bubbly demeanor will put you at ease and her knowledge and perfectionism is unmatched. She used to be a wound care specialist and decided to start her own piercing business so you KNOW you’re in good hands with her. She has a beautiful selection of jewelry options including some really pretty opal ones but I opted for mint CZ for some extra sparkle. She informed me of what she was doing every step of the way to make sure I felt comfortable, made me laugh, and wiped my tears when I involuntarily teared up after my double nostril piercings. You will leave there wishing she was your best friend and wondering what else you can get pierced just so you can get another piercing with her!! And my friend who referred me told me he felt the same. What a wonderful human!

Great atmosphere, awesome customer service!!Tania is really nice, she makes sure you have a comfortable experience. I will definitely be going back for any future piercings. I highly recommend you book your next piercing appointment with Tania, you wont be disappointed!!! Its super easy to book your appointment online, thats how I booked my appointment.

Short Version: Helpful, excellent communication skills, experience shows, personable, honest, great prices, good jewlery selection, flexible with customers.Long Version: I went in to see Tania to get some help with my industrial piercing I had gotten at another shop. After my industrial healed I wanted to switch the jewlery out but couldnt for some odd reason. When I went back to that shop they told me I had to leave the bar in (couldnt put in other jewelry pieces just use buttons) and I was stuck to choose only that shops jewelry. Tania on the other hand she was super helpful and honest. She explained each step she was taking or what she was doing, always giving a heads up before touching my ear, and actually giving me options and ideas I didnt know I had available to me.After being made feel limited before she made me feel like options were endless and I could have fun with the piercings I have. Her prices are also extremely reasonable which can be hard to find at piercing places. The jewlery options she has available are pretty well ranged and if she doesnt have something in shell research to help find it or something similar to it. I left feeling happy with new jewlery and more information on hand. She actually cares for all of her customers that come in. I would heavily recommend her to anyone wanting to get any piercing!

Genuine Space is THE spot for piercings.Tania is an absolute gem, a consummate professional and one of the friendliest piercers in existence. Especially if you’re going for a first piercing or have a kiddo who wants their lobes done, Tania is so kind, patient, informative and GREAT with kids. She pierced my god-niece’s lobes and it was a joyful experience (as opposed to a lot of us with our “piercing gun” trauma filled childhoods). She made sure our girl felt confident, knew that she had the power/autonomy to say no or change her mind, and the whole thing went by quickly and painless! Tania has done almost all of my piercings, and she’s the only person I’ll get pierced by again. Also, her taste in jewelry is unmatched! I could go on forever, so just treat yourself to an appointment at Genuine Space.

Tania did an amazing job on my nostril piercing! She explained every step of her process, and i felt so safe and cared for by her. Her sanitization process was very thorough, the piercing was a breeze, and i will definitely trust her to add more jewelry on me in the future!!! She is a true professional.

Tania was amazing! I got my nose pierced and she met with my daughter about getting her ears pierced for the first time. She explained everything very well, and was so sweet through the whole process. I highly recommend her!

Tania is so good at what she does. I am 14 and I got my nose pierced. It didn’t hurt one bit. I was completely relaxed the whole way. She explained everything to me so I would’ve get nervous. Everything was extremely sanitary. I felt so comfortable with her. She even wiped my tears away so my mascara wouldn’t run. What a Queen! She acted like I was an adult and not a child. She is so professional and soooo sweet. I would recommend her to anyone of any age. Love you Tania!

I will never go to any other piercer!! After having many negative experiences in traditional piercing shops, Tania has been the biggest breath of fresh air. Their approach to piercing is rooted in compassion, respect, and doing everything possible to make sure that you’re comfortable throughout the entire process. I literally cannot recommend genuine space enough, and all other piercing shops should look to Tania’s process for guidance.

Tania is an absolute lifesaver! I tried switching out my nose ring for a stud and realized after taking it out that I couldnt do it myself. I was worried my piercing was going to close and I desperately called Tania 10 minutes before she closed for the day. Not only did she switch my jewelry for me but she was so friendly and put my stress at ease. She explains her every move so that you know what to expect, and her work is top tier. I would recommend Genuine Space to all of my friends and family, and I will be back for my next piercing!!

Tania is super awesome at what she does. Very passionate about her work and very clear on every step of the piercing process. I would recommend anyone to go to her if they want to have a good piercing experience!

I am so enamored with Tania and her business! I truly enjoyed every minute of my experience with her. My piercings are perfect and I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you, Tania for your kindness and talent!

Got my first helix done about 2 weeks ago! I couldnt have chosen I better place to do it! Tania was so kind and professional and walked me through every step of the process! Im a scaredy cat, and this didnt even hurt!!! Yes! Thats right, Tania made it quick and painless! Even after 2 weeks I havent had any problem with my piercing, I clean it daily as she told me to using the product she offered. Shes been 20 years on the industry and that totally shows!! She was a sweeateart! Cant wait to go back to switch for a hoop!!!

Absolutely amazing woman! Such a comforting and amazing space to be in!! 100% will be going back to her!💕 1000/10 would recommend!!!!!!

Great experience! Tania is a wonderful, kind human and explains everything very thoroughly. Also, you receive all the directions for care in your email (harder to lose the internet than a paper copy) because she is conscientious about excess paper. She also shows you every step, lets you see the sanitizer machine, and the big white chair is pretty cool to sit in. And she makes herself available for aftercare questions if you have them, too! Such a great visit!

Tania creates such a calm and welcoming experience! My friends and I booked a same-day appointment. She was very flexible with all adjustments and super knowledgeable on piercings. We love you, Tania! Cant wait to see you soon💞

Can’t say enough about my new friend Tania and our experience! She fit my friend and I into an appointment slot same day and was super gentle with him, he hates needles and was very nervous. She was super accommodating and sweet! She explained everything step by step before during and after, and made sure every touch every time was known to us. I would definitely feel safe taking a small child (if they wanted) to her for an ear piercing. So sweet and kind, also has 20 years in the industry under her belt.

Entirely blown away! Every step of the way, Tania shared her passion for piercing in a wholesome, friendly, professional way. There were no surprises as she is extremely clear every step of the way. It was such a great experience and I HIGHLY recommend you get your next piercing here.Not only do you get a perfect, quality piercing with quality jewelry, but you get an experience you can’t stop smiling about.Thanks for the philtrum piercing! Can’t wait to be back for the next.

I was very nervous and turned off by piercings until meeting Tanyah. She fully explains the process, puts nervous clients at ease, has high quality jewelry, reasonable prices, and always follows up. Ive been helped when I want to upgrade jewelry or do something new, I definitely recommend her, and always feel cared for!

Today is my daughter’s 9th birthday. She has been wanting her ears pierced for the past 3 years, but always got to nervous and backs out when talking about it. She once again asked and of course we said okay. My daughter was so nervous. Tania was so calm and patient with my daughter. She told her it’s all about you and if you don’t want to do it, you don’t have to. She walked her through every step and always checked with her before doing anything. I highly recommend booking your piercing appointment with Tania- whether it’s for your kiddos ears, or any piercing you’ve been wanting. She’s skilled, kind and has a very sterile work place.Thanks Tania for helping make Caylee’s 9th birthday special.

Tania pierced my 5 year old daughters ears and then my septum. She is a calm, lovely, and caring lady that took such great care of my little one. I cant tell you how much that meant to me. If youve got a little one, or if youre nervous, or if you just want a superb piercer, then you need to come see Tania. She is the bomb diggity!!!!

One of the sweetest and most talented piercers I’ve had the pleasure of being pierced by. Tania will make you feel so comfortable and so confident every step of the way!!! I’m going to Tania for the rest of my piercing needs from here on out.🥰

Tania is amazing. I am so glad I found her. She is very professional, and is great at walking you through the process which made me feel more comfortable.

As someone who’s been pierced since elementary school, I can say with no doubt in my mind that Tania is the best piercer I have ever interacted with and in more ways than one. Tania’s way of speaking in general seals the deal but then you walk into her space and it’s just beautiful. The cleanest and prettiest piercing space I’ve ever seen; most sanitary procedure I’ve ever seen. And then you sit in the chair, and Tania makes sure you are as comfortable as possible, she lets you know before any physical contact, explains everything in detail, and is there with you through the entire process. I had my forward helix and daith done with her, and she gave me honest advice; told me two daith piercings would potentially make sleep difficult, so I opted for the one and a forward helix instead. Tania isn’t here to take your money, she’s passionate about what she does and humble with her pricing and really in every aspect. And to top it off, she is of course amazing at what she does; I didn’t even feel my forward helix go through, and when I squirmed during the daith she was encouraging, not frustrated like many other piercers. And when I went to stand up, I got pale and lightheaded which is not normal for me and this wonderful person brought me a Capri Sun! Something about that will always stick with me. Tania makes a friend every time someone walks in that door and I will never go anywhere else as long as I live in Eugene.

Tania was simply amazing!!! She made you feel like an old friend right away, and is a consummate professional. She knows her stuff! So glad I found her! Will only be going to see her for piercings in the future.

Tania’s a lovely piercer and person!Beyond comforting, warm, understanding and patient :) Definitely my top piercing experience to date.Will be returning here for all my piercings and jewelry from now on! 🌹

She was amazing! I had such a good experience! Felt like I was well taken care of and very comfortable. Process was quick and easy and clean. I loved the earring options! I felt very safe and made the entire experience so fun and exciting and not scary at all. She felt like a friend, would highly recommend!!

I got my first piercing on a Wednesday and I liked it so well I went back on Thursday for a couple more. I am very happy with the finished product and Tania is a wonderful person who put me totally at ease.

First time taking my daughter to get a piercing here and it was a very good experience! My daughter is super happy with her piercing and Tania was very sweet and talked through the whole process. ❤️

The staff was so sweet, friendly, informative, thorough, helpful, professional, funny, sanitary, and just overall really great. The atmosphere was really fun and grunge and artsy all at the same time. I loved the shop and the music they played, too. I’d definitely come back to this lady to get more piercings or even just to hang out. 100/10 very cool vibes.

Naina was AMAZING! I took my neice to get her nose pierced as well as mine. She treated her with so much care and made her less nervous infact neither of us felt a thing. She was clean, fast, entertaining and overall you can tell naina really cares about the comfort of her clients.. thank you so much for the wonderful experience ♡

Genuine Space is exactly what its called. Tania is a genuine, competent piercer and person. She will always treat you with respect and make you feel cared for. 10/10 recommend her and her business to anyone.

My eight year old got her ears pierced by Tania and it couldn’t have gone better. I highly recommend.

Tania is an amazing human being and I get all my piercing work from her and I recommend her to all my friends!

Went to have my piercing checked on, Tania didnt even do the piercing but she still checked it for me for free, will certainly return here in the future.

Tania is a pillar in the body mod community and I’m so thankful she has this amazing space!!! Check her out, you won’t regret it!!! 💜🤘🔥

Great service from Tania, shes kind, clean and patient! Affordable prices and willing to answer many questions

I went here looking for ear plug jewelry for a gift and they didnt have a huge selection of sizes. But the owner directed me to a good jewelry shop and even helped me size the jewelry I did have. 5 of 5

The most comfy safe place! You have a genuine friend who’s going to take care of you and make sure you come in feeling good and leaving feeling good!

The kindest lady ever, she walks you through everything happening and is helpful with choosing the correct jewelry for you! Highly recommend!!
