The Best of Hartford

Georgina of Black Diamond Body Piercing in West Hartford, CT is the second-year-in-a-row winner of Best Body Piercing in the Hartford Advocate's Reader's poll. Congratulations!

From the Hartford Advocate:

Georgina Williamson says she opened her combination body piercing and jewelry shop "a month before the world broke" with the start of the recession. Yet she's been able to come up with her second-in-a-row first-place finish in the Advocate Readers' Poll. "Considering this is the worst economy we've had in our lifetime, it's pretty promising," she says. In fact, all that depressing fiscal stuff could actually be helping her business. "Piercing is an affordable thing that can give you a little piece of happiness," Williamson says. It helps that her customers tend to feel very relaxed about the experience the moment they walk in the door. "The atmosphere I've created is very calming and pretty, not intimidating at all," she explains. The shop has jewelry creations from local artists for sale as well as paintings and sculptures available. Williamson says the key for her type of business is having satisfied customers spread the word. "People trust their friends. If they enjoy the atmosphere and the experience, they're going to tell their friends."
