the two places i've generally seen recommended are jinx proof in georgetown and fatty's in dupont circle. i got my piercing at jinx proof and i'm going to be getting new jewelry at fatty's -- both of them look clean and safe for tattoos as well as piercings, with a bit of an edge for fatty's over jinx proof for a quieter layout; on the other hand, i think jinx proof has more artists working there.
Jumping on cmshaw's recs: I got my tattoo and all of my piercings at Fatty's in Dupont - I'm very happy with both and would recommend them (although - tattoos are a little bit dependent on the kind of work the person wants done. Mine is black and without significant detail. I would definitely recommend that they spend some time interviewing the artist and looking at the artist's portfolio to see if it seems like a good fit).
