NYC people, i need your help!

i am hoping to get pierced sometime within the next month, however, i have no idea where to go. i went to one place years ago on 8th street, which seemed decent, but that was just for ear cartilage, nothing too difficult. i've looked on-line, but you can't really tell how experienced/clean/reputable they are. in my experience, word of mouth is usually the best bet. people seem to find and hang on to their One True Piercer whom they trust and send all their friends to (which is what i'm hoping for here).

so if anyone has any recommendations i would be most grateful! places you been to and liked, places to avoid. even if it's just, "well, my friend goes here..." or "i've heard good things about this guy". any info whatsoever would be greatly appreciated!

...in fact, while you're at it, if you have any rec's for tattoo parlors, that would be helpful as well.

THANKS! =)

!!! normally, i'd be really bummed for having completely missed that - however, now... i just breathe, and calmly remind myself that i shouldn't be spending money right now anyhow, so even if i knew about that, i probably wouldn't have gone.

...fjdsrjeskajfl!!1! damn.

they also had a signing/performance at the virgin in union square - but of course, i was too busy seeing harry potter at the time. *curses*
