The Hive Body Art Collective

I came in to get a conch piercing here a little over 2 weeks ago. No appointment needed!!! I love that! Bethany pierced my ear and was able to complete the process (paperwork and piercing) in about 10 minutes. She was professional, easy going and easy to work with. Bethany wore gloves and a mask so i did not worry about getting sick here. She marked my ear made sure I was happy with the placement, then pierced it with a needle. The pain was only when the needle went through. She told me how to care for it and it has given me no issues since getting it done. Highly recommend this establishment for your piercing needs!!

I got a tattoo here a couple of years ago and was disappointed after my tattoo had healed. I do not recommend this place to anyone and tell my friends to avoid it. I got a butterfly tattoo here and it looks like a lobster with wing's. I called to talk about it and they felt as if they did an awesome job lol year right! So now I have to spend more money to get it either fixed or covered.

If you want professional ,awesome ,safe an cleansely friendly care for your piercing or tattoo first or not ! Then new vision is the place for you !

I love having such a professional and trustworthy tattoo shop in my community. All the artists are friendly and laid back. Caleb(Tater Tot), whom I've known for many years, did an amazing job on my first tattoo and I will be going back for more in the near future. I had first-timer nerves and they were great at making me feel comfortable. I highly recommend this shop if you live in/near Gainesville.

I wish I could show how good of a job Eric did on my tattoo but google is lame and won't let me post a picture. Followed the after care instructions (which were different than I was used to) and my colors stayed just as bright as when I first got it (normally my skin rejects colors so I have to get it touched up). I explained it to Eric and he said he would take care of it if that happened. He let me take breaks if the pain got too intense. I've read all of these reviews before posting and honestly I can't see him or anyone there doing that because they were very nice to me. I was getting a labyrinth tattoo so they played the labyrinth for me and it was an overall great experience. Oh and when I got the price my jaw dropped. It was a pretty good size tattoo that took a few hours to finish and it had colors and shading and it was only 120. I honestly can't wait to get my next one.

This place is amazing! I was a tattoo newbie and heard about New Vision from a coworker. Eric is a skilled artist and an awesome guy. He walked me through the whole planning process and made sure I was happy with the design and its placement. I was so impressed I got a second tattoo three weeks later. I can't say enough good things about Eric and the rest of the employees at New Vision.

I will never understand how a business is ran on being rude to a paying customer such as myself. Hey Repo just remember bad news travels fast. Also don't forget that I traveled from Atlanta to find your shop and you pitched a fit like a child today when I wasn't able to make my appointment because I'm going to the beach and will be in the sun too which you would probably not recommend doing. Also this appointment for today was never secured by a deposit. Although I did setup my next appointment with Eric by paying a $50 deposit. But yet you call me to chew me out because I didn't make it today. Well folks that's what you call excellent customer service. I will make sure that when any of my friends need a recommendation for a tattoo artists that I will stomp a hole in the name of New Vision Tattoo. You just missed out on an easy $400 + in business and more for a returning customer and referrals. It's not everyday that someone drives 60 miles for a tattoo. I will not be surprised to hear that this grown man has treated other people this way. FYI you don't run a successful business like this.

Amazing!! For a Friday night they got to me super fast and were extremely friendly and hilarious, Tim did my tattoo and it's absolutely beautiful, super easy going and outspoken, he got the perfect shades of blue I wanted without me having to tell him. The handwriting for my son's name is beautiful and the colors are as well. I will definitely refer everyone here and will be coming back for more! Thanks much NVT wonderful work!

I have gotten nearly all of my tattoos done here and will not go anywhere else! They give the best opinion without pushing you to make the lifelong decision if you are uncertain. I love that they always work with me budget wise before drawing anything up for me to make sure I don't get a surprise 500 dollar tattoo that I can not afford which has happened at other shops before. I will always come here first for anything done. I have had multiple family members and friends that have come here for piercings as well and they have never had an issue with it. Eric and company are very clear on instructions and are willing to answer any questions that anyone has :)

Amazing work by Taco Tim! As my birthday gift, my husband took me hunting for a tattoo artist that could do a nice portrait. We found Tim, seen his portfolio and loved his portraits. He was very patient as I explained exactly what I wanted and the importance of the tattoo. Definitely going back to get more work done by Tim!
