Founded by Alex Feliciano in 2005, 12 oz. Studios first opened its doors in Brooklawn, NJ as a custom tattoo and body piercing shop, and a gallery hosting art shows featuring works by our staff and peers in art and tattooing. In 2010 we opened our second location in Deptford, NJ with the same high standard of quality tattoos, body piercing and permanent cosmetics in mind along with a retail space to showcase our creativity in merchandising and branding. We continue to be proud to bring all of this to the southern New Jersey and Philadelphia area.  

Our locations and staff are registered with the Camden County and Gloucester County Board of Health departments and we uphold the highest standards of sterilization along with the latest and safest tattooing, permanent cosmetics,  and body piercing techniques. We’ve made it our mission to educate our customers about tattooing, body piercing, and body jewelry to ensure everyone’s health and safety and to show our dedication to being the best at our profession.  We are artists first and foremost and we have chosen to showcase our artwork not just through drawings, paintings, and sculptures but also on the human body. Our collective creativity and diversity give us the ability to provide a truly unique experience for anyone who walks through our doors. Welcome to 12 oz. Studios!
