Tara is an amazing artist and an even better person. Check this out if you are looking for new ink or even just trying to touch something old up.

I went to get my belly pierced the person exam me for almost 30 minutes and didn’t wanted to do it . Waisted my time. I went down the block and got my belly pierced less than 2 minutes. She does not know what she is doing. I would not recommend her.I’m believe her name was kristen

Tara is an awesome AWESOME artist.If youre given a chance to get inked by her absolutely take it.I have roughly 250 hours of tattooing all over my body and can say she is a real deal artist.I can go on and on about her work but checking the Facebook page for her work shows more than I could ever explain in a review.

Really great, professional, and clean! Do you have that perfect idea for a tattoo and have just been waiting to find the right artist? Your search is over! All the people there are very helpful and aim to please. Tara exceptional at her trade and it shows in every tatto she does! Be sure to stop by for a consultation and set up an appointment.

Jessica is really nice and professional! I made an appointment to get my septum pierced and she did amazing and she had no problem giving me more piercings since we had extra time. Really safe covid protocols in place. I wouldnt go anywhere else!

Had a great experience...very friendly, clean & professional....most definitely will return & highly recommend it to all!!! 👌

I got 3 piercings done by Jessica today and I left as a happy customer! She was patient, thorough, gentle and absolutely amazing!

Recently got a tragus piercing and some upper cartilage piercings done by Jessica. She is super professional, super personable and is so, so sweet. Jessica does really good work and I intend on going back to her for more piercings in the near future.

I have been all over Long Island since the age of 18, getting tattooed. Some of them were good experiences, and some of them were bad. I found Tara about 6 months ago, through a mutual friend. I can now say that at the age of 35, I have finally found the best artist for me. The shop is impeccably clean, Taras work is amazing and speaks for itself, and I have had nothing but awesome and happy experiences here. Tara has done orginal pieces and has covered up and reworked most of my prior stuff, and I look forward to having more work done by her. Body Designs is wonderful and I cant recommend it or Tara enough. If you need a tattoo or piercing this is the place to go.

Super clean, professional and WELCOMING! Also women-led ✊🏾

Amazing !!!! I dont have another word to describe my experience with them, I super recommend this place .Tara is amazing tattoo artist, exelent person she is a sweetheart and her coworker, Im so happy with her work, 5 star is nothing if the have the option of a 100 I will used that .Thank you Tara so much !!!

I came here to get my eyebrow pierced during covid. The lady who helped me did not seem interested in starting a conversation, and kept quiet when I spoke to her. As i’ve found out, they also used the wrong eyebrow piercing (she claimed the hoop healed better than the curved barbell, even though i’ve since learned thats incorrect). The hoop moves around more than the barbell, meaning its more prone to irritation, and thus to infection.I cannot speak on the quality of the tattoos done here, but find a different piercer.Piercer had no interest in conversing with me. Not a professional looking shop, piercing knowledge needs work.

Today I had my septum pierced by Jess. She was knowledgeable, friendly, clean, and super professional. She did an amazing job with my piercing and I couldnt be happier. It did not hurt one bit and made sure I was happy and comfortable with every decision about gauge and size. Like I said before I couldnt be happier with the job she did. I highly recommend her to anyone!

My experience was perfect! Jessica was the one who greeted me at the door, she got me started right away and did such an amazing job piercing my nose. She was so sweet and made the experience so easy and comfortable. Highly recommend this location and highly recommend going to Jessica, will definitely make this location a regular for all of my piercing needs!!!

Such a nice and clean environment. So far I’ve had my nose pierced and an second hole for my ear pierced by Jessica. She was totally professional, very knowledgeable and put me at ease. Those piercings are healing very nicely with very minimal pain or swelling. I plan to get more piercings done by Jessica in the near future and referring all my friends.

I got a piercing done by Jessica and she’s fantastic! Very kind and professional

I got my belly pierced today and jess did a really good job. couldnt love it more and cant wait to come back for more piercings!!😻

I love Tara! She’s been multiple tattoos on me and my boyfriend. I’ll only go to her, super professional, great personality and on top of it all.... her tattoos are outrageous! So detail oriented and colors are Phenomenal!! Highly recommend!

From a guy that has more tattoos than I should, Ive been going to this shop for years. After going to a few shops in my earlier tattoo years I have always enjoyed my experiences at Body Designs. The staff is always friendly, helpful and personal! Treat you like your a person, a friend, family; not just another customer. Their talent and artwork are some of the best I have seen. Prices are just as fair. You get what you pay for. I personally have enjoyed money well spent! I should know since my past 6+ tattoos are from Body Designs! Also, their experience with body piercings is great. Always clean and safe! I would recommend this place to friends, family and anyone asking the simple question, HEY! Where do you recommend for a good place for a tattoo/piercing?! This place is your answer!

Tara is a great tattoo artist!! Shop is always clean and well kept. Tara takes the time to get to know you and puts your ideas on paper very well. Got all my tattoos by her and dont plan on using any other artist. She does very impressive work. Always looking forward to going back and getting another tattoo!

Too be brutally honest this shop by far is the most professional,clean, and homey shops ever. I came in to get my lip pierced and ended up leaving with a new tatto and lip piercing. Jess and Tara are great and definitely know how to make their customers feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Being a visitor to Long Island i definitely felt like i was back home. Will be back soon!!

I got a septum piercing, everything was organized and clean, jess was gentle and gave me all the information and answered all the questions I had very professional with that been said the piercer is going to be as good as the as the care YOU give to the perforation after. Do your OWN research prior to getting a piercing, my healing process has been great and I would recommend it

Had my nipple pierced 5 months ago, by Jessica, and she did a fantastic job.Clean, Sterile environment with perfect vibe for light body mod. Very friendly, courteous, and professional. All pierce location was drawn on for my approval before the actual pierce. Followed aftercare instructions to the letter, and had zero pain, minimal swelling, and no issues with infection. Will be returning for additional piercing literally tomorrow; wouldn’t go elsewhere!

Id love to give Body Designs better marks than is available - how can ratings only go up to 3??The studio is clean, organized, and aesthetically pleasing. Ive been going to Tara at Body Designs for 4 years now - recommended from a friend. She does not disappoint at all; gotten 7 out of my 11 tattoos by her. Her work is absolutely incredible, she is honest with you, and she is super professional. Their prices are reasonable as well, which is nice. I come all the way from Brooklyn to have Tara do my tattoos - and I wouldnt have it any other way!!!Go here, you will NOT be disappointed!

This is the only place I will go to get tattoos. The work Tara did was phenomenal, I could not be any happier. Unlike other places all the artists were professional and made me feel comfortable and welcome. Everything was explained to me in detail and I left knowing that if I had any other questions or concerns any one there could help me out. I highly recommend Body Designs to anyone looking to get a tattoo.

Over the last few years I have been tattooed several times by Body Designs artists. The work I have had done has been both large and very small.Tara, the artist who has done most of the work Ive gotten is talented and skilled. She is good at translating my ideas into art.The studio itself is, by far, the most comfortable Ive ever been in. Of course it is immaculately sterile, but almost as importantly it is friendly FEELING as well. If you are going to have people sticking needles into you to permanently change your appearance, it is important that if feels comfortable and welcoming. This place does.

I recently got my 5th tattoo, first at Body Designs. I have plans for two more and both will be done at Body Designs. They came highly recommended to me by a friend of mine. Tara is absolutely awesome and incredibly talented. I can honestly say my new tattoo is a piece of art. Cannot wait to go back for another!If youre thinking of getting a tattoo that you know will be on your body forever, go to Body Designs and get something you will be proud to show off for just as long. Great service, clean shop and very friendly!

Got my nipples pierced by some girl I believe Kristen. I got my nipples and nose pierced. After She pierced them I told her one of nipples look crooked she said it was the way my nipple was. My nose then got infected bad. Ive gotten my nose pierced somewhere else never got infected, which ended up going out of business. This place has Good rates why I went. Never going back. As a see by another review the girls nipple was not pierced right. I know I Wont get my nipple repierced again or get my money back, why I rather leave a bad rate so other people know that she doesnt know how to pierce. Sorry.

Wonderful friendly staff. Will never go anywhere else for a piercing. Very clean establishment.

I have had 8 tattoos done @ Body Designs & 6 of them done by Tara! She is an EXCELLENT artist who takes time to listen to what you want & gives great advice. I wouldnt go anywhere else to get work done. I even asked my kids to get me a gift certificate to Body Designs for Christmas so I can get my back done!!

Love this place, very friendly, Nice environment, got my ear pierced very clean and professional. Will come back and recommend to others!!

I will start off by saying that what led me to finally get a tattoo at Body Designs was the warm and welcoming atmosphere that the owner and staff of the shop created. The shop itself is really clean and always well staffed.I always wanted a tattoo but the whole process really freaked me out. I literally had an idea of what I wanted to have done for three years before I finally was brave enough to do it. Visiting the shop and watching other people get pieces done put me at ease.When I finally took the plunge and got my first tattoo the entire staff bent over backwards to make me feel welcomed. I walked in with a vague idea of the piece I wanted. Tara took the time to work with me to bring my idea life. The rest of the staff was reassuring as I prepared to get a sizable tattoo put on a sensitive area of my foot. No one laughed as rattled off some of my concerns, they gave me clear answers to my questions, and made the entire experience enjoyable.The tattoo came out absolutely beautiful. I got it done 5 years ago and I still get compliments on how beautiful it is. The shop has helped me to maintain the look of my tattoo by touching it up every few years so it always looks fantastic. I have witnessed some really cool designs come out of Mike Fenns shop and I am excited to get more work done here. When someone tells me they like my tattoo, I make sure to mention where I got it done.What really impresses me about Body Designs is the sense of community the staff provides for their clients. Ive never seen anyone walk in the door and get ignored. When working with their clients, the staff always seems interested and enthusiastic about the work they are doing. Body Designs appreciates every customer who stops in to get a tattoo or a piercing. Besides employing a staff of highly trained and talented artists, Body Designs makes a point to give back to the community.A few years ago Body Designs got involved in Tattoos For Cancer an amazing event that raises money for cancer research.I am so glad that I got my tattoo at Body Designs. The staff helped a very anxious client to feel right at home. I continue to get compliments on my tattoo several years after I had it done. There is honestly no one else that I would trust to tattoo me than the staff of Body Designs. So check them out!

Great vibe, loving my 2 tats done by Tara. Highly recommend body designs.

Awesome place great ppl very clean highly recommend

I love the place is very nice,she and the rest are very good people, is very clean place, I love so much that I do not minde to tattoo all my body, brava

Great place, super clean, very professional Tara and bobby do great work. Been tattooed by both. Highly recommended!!

I am so glad i found this place. I had a piercing done elsewhere and had a terrible metal allergy. I couldnt find a local spot with a knowledgeable piercer so I ventured out here from the Bronx. I AM SO GLAD I DID. I will not go anywhere else. I was intimidated walking in as I was pretty embarrassed i even allowed a piercing at the spot i originally went too but Tara welcomed me immediately, troubleshooted my issue, laughed at me with me and gave me such great information. Jess helped me to choose a new piece of jewelry that wouldnt react with my skin and had my ring changed out before i even knew it (literally) i was so busy laughing and chatting i didnt even notice lol. The place is clean, sterile tools are used and the staff is amazing.I will be going back with my husband for tattoos later this summer.Tara and Jess have customers for life. Thank you both so much!

Tara is the best at her job. I have over 100 tattoos and without Tara I probably wouldnt have them. If you need a person to go to see Tara.

I recently just got my Monroe pierced here. After the first day of it being pierced I experienced swelling which I knew was normal but after a day the swelling got a lot worse and I was getting really nervous. The swelling got so bad I had to go to the hospital to get my piercing taken out. After this happened I messaged other tattoo places to get their opinion as to what happened. I had told them about my lip and how they put a 5/16 rod in my lip and the tattoo places said that they didnt measure my lip correctly and that that rod was way too small to compensate with swelling, they also said they should of put in a 3/8 or 7/16 which would of been a lot longer to make sure the circulation to my lip wouldnt get cut off. I had a terrible experience Im sorry.

Tara is amazing. Had eyeliner tattoo done and referred my boyfriend and daughter to her.

Tara does amazing work.

Jessica Green was terrific!!!!! Will definitely go back .

I happened to stumble across Body Designs a few years back with their old shop in Bayshore and have never gone to another artist since. Tara is warm and inviting and takes an idea of what I want and turns it into a piece of art. The shop is always clean, products always organized and new and atmosphere is professional and friendly. Really puts you at ease. Ive personally had 6 of my pieces done by Tara and get compliments daily on how beautiful they are and refer them to Body Designs. If youre looking for a one of a kind tattoo and experience then deffinitely come here.

When I got my very first tattoo (out of now 7 total!) I was very nervous and very scared. My friend who had also just gotten a tattoo recommended Body Designs and said that if I wanted to get a quality tattoo, this was the place to go. The place was clean, neat, and inviting. All of the equipment was sterile and in pristine condition. There were benches to sit on and magazines to read. Upbeat music played in the background. For somebody completely new to this world, I was able to relax and breathe a sigh of relief.While I am certain that Body Designs has an all around incredible staff, I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Tara, an incredibly talented tattoo artist who has only just begun to show us her amazing abilities. I viewed her portfolio prior to meeting her and knew that she was the only person who could do this tattoo for me. After several consultations prior to getting the artwork, I felt ready and confident, even as nervous as I was. From day one, Tara was very kind and put all of my fears to rest. She answered my questions and patted me on the back, assuring me that everything was going to be fine. Tara was professional and meticulous in her work and gave me my most beautiful tattoo: my sunflower. I have since gone back to get my other six tattoos from Body Designs, all with Tara. Now ten years later after the very first tattoo, I still get compliments on what an amazing job she did. I am telling you now, just as as I tell all of my friends...Body Designs is the place to go for your tattoo. It is comfortable, clean, and staffed by the finest tattoo (and piercing!) artists you will ever meet. What more can you ask for?

Found them to be rude and very defensive when I asked questions. Chose to go somewhere else.

Dear A Google User who gave Body Designs a 0 for no other reason that I can conceive of other than personal bitterness and spite toward Mr. Fenn: find a hobby. Seriously.For those who are searching to find a great tattoo/piercing studio: look no further. Ive gotten multiple body piercings at Body Designs, and one large back piece thanks to the lovely and talented Tara Fenn. I can say with absolute certainty that there will be more to come. Body Designs is impeccably clean and professionally run--so much so that they request you turn your cell phone off when you walk in the door so as not to disturb those getting inked, which I appreciate--and the quality of the work is top notch. Prices are very reasonable, and the tattoo advice/design process is honest, patient, and never pushy. What more could you ask for?

I went to Body Designs to get a tattoo by Tara, this was my first tattoo at this shop and I only left my last artist because she moved out of state. I have many tattoos and Body Designs now has one more loyal customer. I couldnt be happier with Taras work, I found the studio to be extremely clean and the staff friendly.I would also like to note that I am in no way employed or affiliated with Body Designs tattoo so the theory of the prior reviewer is not the case here.I would and have already highly recommended Tara to many of my friends!And in regards to the negative, hateful and not-surprisingly anonymous review below I would like to say it is entirely bogus. That review was clearly written by an employee or owner of a competitors shop, and not a very bright one at that. Michael Fenn (The Owner) was there while I was getting tattooed and I got my tattoo done days after their TATTOOS FOR CANCER event in which ALL PROCEEDS went to cancer research so that disproves those 2 points.Do yourself a favor, if youre in the market for a tattoo or piercing check out Body Designs! You wont be sorry!!

Tara is not only a great artist but one of the. Est people Ive ever known.

Before I found this shop I have been to many different tattoo shops and most of them have done horrible work. As soon as I walked into Body Designs and took a look at Tara’s portfolio I instantly fell in love. She is amazing, her work is by far the best around and the coloring is amazing, it is bright and does not fade like some other shops I have been to. All of the tattoo’s that I was not happy with that other artist have done, I had Tara cover up. She does an amazing cover up job and is very creative with her designs to help hide all of the thick dark black writings I had on my body previously. She also tattoo’s my fiancé, we would never go anywhere else! Her father pierced both my friend and I and he made an experience that would usually be scary and painful, into a happy and no longer scared experience. I would highly recommend this place I love all of my tattoos and piercing’s from here!!!!

My husband and i have gone to body designs for the last 6 years and, obviously, have always been very pleased... otherwise, we wouldnt keep coming back! tara is our inker of choice and we always walk away from her station super pleased. my first tat with tara was a very thoughtful piece and i brought her a whole file folder of concepts and items i wanted incorporated. she listened to my story, the reason for my tattoo, the purpose for each item i wanted, was friendly and interested in my story, took my HUGE FILE and took about a week to put together a piece i loved. shes great to collaborate with and really understands the vision of the person coming in for some ink :) as a matter of fact, ive got a birthday gift card burning a hole in my pocket and im looking forward to going in and getting my 5th tattoo with her!

Tara is the best!

Very informative when asking about tattoos

Great experience again

Tara Rocks
