Exceptionally Clean Highly Recommend

I am extremely happy with my experience. They fit me in last minute and were very helpful to make the scheduling work. The space was exceptionally clean and sanitary. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a piercing.

clean professional knowledgeable friendly

This shop is amazing, clean and professional. Dom is the diva to see! She is knowledgeable AND friendly! Dom explained each thing she was doing as we went along and made me feel comfortable during the entire Helix piercing experience! Dom knows what she's doing and my Helix piercing is healing wonderfully! I am going back and while I'm sure the other artists are great, I will only see my DIVA DOM! :-)

Expensive Unorganized Long Wait Time

They gave me a price after doing my tattoos, plus the shop minimum was $100 but apparently since my four stars were done in separate places it counts as 2 separate tattoos so I ended up paying $200 for four quarter sized tattoos. Plus they're unorganized they let 3 people go before me waiting for 2 hours even though they told me it was a 30 minute wait. I'm definitely trying other places.

Impressive Sketch Dedicated Artist Friendly Atmosphere

I came home for leave from VA, and I got lucky enough to get an appointment before going back. When I explained that the appointment was on my last day here in CA, Mike was still willing to work with me. I showed some reference pictures to him and explained to him what I wanted. He made an impressive sketch that already had me excited, but the end results left me breathless. What was the most impressive thing about my experience here though is that he actually sat down and tatted me for 8 hours, with several short breaks in between. That takes a lot of focus, passion, and dedication. Everyone else here is pretty cool too. Cracking jokes about MILFs walking in, playing cool music, and occasionally complimenting on the work in progress. I think I might just get a tattoo here to hang out. For my first tattoo, I have no regrets at all. I've made so many friends and received many compliments on it. That's right, I get to hang out with the cool kids now.

Professional Clean Knowledgeable Friendly

I luv James. He is a awesome piercer. He is calming, friendly, and very personable. He has alot of patience and knowledge of proper piercing placements according to your unique anatomy. He will not let u leave unhappy or dissatisfied. I been to many piercing shops and this one by far is the best I ever been to. Its clean, professional and sanitary which is my pet peeve being a nurse and even the restroom smells very nice...yes...the restroom smells unlike typical shops like it. I give Body Electric A++. The prices are more than others but not that much, but its so worth it in long run to be happy with what u paid for than unsatisfied. There are two piercers there but I will only go to James. He is definitely a asset to this shop.

Highly recommend Great design Clean lines Worth the price

Can’t imagine going somewhere else in LA after coming here. Jacob took an idea I’d been working on for 2 years and turned into a design that was better than anything I’d imagined, then proceeded to tattoo it perfectly. Was super supportive and gave clean lines that have aged well. Highly recommend both the studio and Jacob. Slightly pricey but you get what you pay for and then some.

professional friendly high quality pleasant experience comfortable welcoming

Brian Keith Thompson and his staff are absolutely incredible. The atmosphere in the actual studio is both professional and friendly. The jewelry provided is both high quality and beautiful and the actual piercing experience was quick and pleasant due to BKT’s skill. My mother and 3 year old we aslo super comfortable and welcomed in the studio. I absolutely plan on going back and if my girl’s ears weren’t already pierced this is where I would bring them no question. This is the place to be if you are looking for they best all around piercing experience.

Best Shop Safe Clean Stylish Environment Honest Employees Talented Employees Entertaining Employees Professional Owner Passionate Owner Customer Satisfaction Highly Recommended

Body Electric Tattoo & Piercing is by far the best shop in LA...and possibly the world. The shop is safe, clean, and has a stylish environment. The employees are honest, patient, talented and entertaining. The owner, Brian Keith Thompson, is very professional and passionate about his Business, Artists, and Customers! He goes out of his way to make sure people feel satisfied with the service they have received, and if you are not happy, he will do his best to find a probable solution. I have received two tattoos (Joe Savva is my favorite tattoo Artist) and a bellybutton piercing from this shop.

i will only go to Body Electric and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Professional Clean Good Service High Quality Jewelry

Very good experience there. Brian is good at what is doing : piercing. It was fast, clean and professional. Only good jewelry material (platinum is the minimum). I came to L.A. from Paris and I'm glad I could get an appointment. I strongly recommend him.
