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!

I love coming to Body Electric Tattoo and Piercing Studio because it is the cleanest and dopest studios I’ve ever been. I only get my tattoos and piercings done here. The team is very professional and I always feel welcomed when I come in. This place is like a temple and I can tell the staff loves what they do. I fell in LOVE with this studio as soon as I walked in couple years ago and I have never left. I highly recommend this place for first timers or veterans like myself when it comes to piercings and tattoos!

A legendary tattoo and piercing experience in the heart of LA. When you step into Body Electric, you know this place is gonna be good. Very clean and professional and really a magical spot looking down on Melrose.. Love this place and would highly recommend.

It was pricey but WELL worth it. They were very patient with me while stretching my ears and getting my first tattoo. They were clean and gave clear after-care instructions. Awz does great line work and he’s got jokes, highly recommend. He cleaned up my own artwork and rolled with it.

The owner, Brian, is the coolest, most comfortable guy: the kind of person that makes everyone whom he speaks with feel like a close friend. We talked for a little while before and after I got my tattoo; great guy and a great place. My artist's name was Steven. He had a good eye, a light touch, and a steady hand. Loved the work he did, abd I would definitely go back for ky next tattoo. The parlor is clean, the artists are careful and sanitary, and the prices are reasonable.

Visited the shop twice in last 4 months to find a BVLA nose ring. Once it was a Saturday early afternoon, fairly busy, and front desk service was dismissive. It felt like they were understaffed and stressed. I didn't buy anything that time because it didn't feel right and I didn't feel strongly attached to any jewelry. All things considered, the space was spotless, the piercers and tattoo artists were friendly and authentic, the jewelry collection was wide ranging and beautiful, and it is conveniently placed. So I visited for the 2nd time this past weekend (Jan 2019). Slamming but front desk staff was ON POINT. Immediate greeting, following up and giving a wait time estimate, attentive to your inquiries and preferences, and knowledgeable. It was meant to be because I met the owner, Brian, who knew exactly what to give me based on my limited ideas and took me back immediately to swap my nose stud for the hoop. He was professional, funny, dry, and smooth AF. He's literally Dapper Dan (sick suited LEWK). Piece was reasonable for a rose gold BLVA hoop ($65). I will buy my jewelry from them and if I want another piercing, or God help my God-fearing parents - a tattoo! - I know where to go. 10/10 recommend if you want precision, cleanliness, and a healthy dose of sarcasm.

I did my (under)lip-piercing in there.
First what you see on the outside an "A" what means very good. Then you come inside.
The people in there are so nice, humorous and totally cool. The piercer: very very cool dude. He calms you down and does his job really good (how he should).
I recommend this studio everyone who want a tattoo or a piercing in LA, even if you're only on vacation.

This shop had great customer service and the tattoo artist I worked with was talented, kind, and quick. I was able to bring a design of my own and the pricing was affordable. The atmosphere inside is pleasant as well.

Love the atmosphere! Bryan (the owner) was soooo welcoming and friendly. Then Ray (tattoo artist) did an amazing job on my tattoo. Definitely will be back!

The shop minimum is $100, which is pretty steep. The whole vibe of the place was unwelcoming. My tattoo ended up badly done. The artist was standoffish, and I felt uncomfortable the whole time. He did a terrible job at shading on my tattoo. Do not recommend.
