Best Tattoo Shops In Nashville

“Super clean, perfect atmosphere, well priced, and the staff is wonderful. Spencer was our artist and he was really knowledgeable. He helped guide me and my friend through our pieces with great artistic vision on shading and line placement. 10 out 10, take all your friends 🤘🏻“

“Super great experiences here. My daughter has had 2 piercings here. Nose and bellybutton. We had a question about the healing process for her belly button and we stopped into the shop right as they opened. Very great service!!! The piercing artist was amazing and reassuring! I only wish I could book an appointment here with a debit card, my only complaint of the whole establishment. Everything else is great! Thank you!“

“Absolutely stellar work from the entire team. Every visit has been a great experience even when I was nervous. I’ve gotten three piercings here so far and fully plan to keep this as my go-to shop.“

“I absolutely love working with @tatcatmia!! She is super detailed and doesn't mind consulting with my very particular personality. She's undoubtedly a versatile and professional artist. I felt confident working with her before my first tattoo was even finished because I could tell she wants happy clients that love their pieces. I'm certain I'll be back for more!!“

“I came in with a concept of what I wanted and Mia nailed it beyond my expectations. She really made my design better than I could have ever imagined.

The parlor itself is just way cool, professional, and comfortable. Ryane made our appointments and matched us to Mia. Seriously 5 star service all the way around.“

“Walked in and was immediately impressed with the studio. Everyone was extremely friendly and polite as can be. Josh did an excellent job on my tattoo, extremely light handed but very thorough. I have found my shop to get all of my ink done and highly recommend them!“

“This was my first tattoo and it was such a great experience. The shop is so cool and everyone in the shop was great and very welcoming. Jonny did a great job adjusting the design so that it was perfect for me and fit exactly how I wanted it. The whole vibe in the studio was great with multiple artists supporting and helping each other and their clients. Loved it all!“

“Leah helped me tremendously with a tattoo I wanted reworked. She took my current tattoo, the idea I had for the rework, and ran with it. Once she showed me the design, we talked through different variations and landed on a version that I am very pleased with. Leah herself is super personable, artistically-minded, and generally great to work with on this. I highly recommend the shop and Leah in particular.“

“Awesome service, especially with all of the walk-ins that they get. The customer service was awesome. My son, daughter-in-law, and I all went in for tattoos, and walked out of there VERY SATISFIED.!!!“

“This place is great! Great atmosphere. Everyone is so welcoming and awesome. Louie is my artist and he's amazing! Been going to him for awhile now and every time I leave loving my artwork more than I thought I would. He always goes above and beyond and exceeds any expectations I may have. Highly recommend ArtWerks if your looking for ink or piercings while in Nashville“

“Chip did an amazing coverup of a pineapple I had tatted on my inner ankle. I had no idea really what I wanted, just presented him with my ideas and let him take charge. I love the way he designed this piece, and you can’t even tell where the old tattoo was. The process of scheduling was super smooth, and during, he had great music going for me, solid conversation, and made sure I had breaks if I needed. I’ll be going back for more tattoos for sure!“

“Got an eyebrow piercing it was great Josh was really nice telling me how to take care of it!“

“Absolutely fantastic job! Easy to work with and a great time with Brandon. He also did a design I don’t expect for me to consider (both were fantastic)! Thank you for a great experience. One of the best I have had when getting tattooed.“

“It was my first tattoo and Chris did the work and he was very good and did an extremely amazing job. Highly recommend this place.“

“Evan was amazing! He made my first experience so comfortable and showed so much proud that my friends and I came back the very next day! They had some long awaited work done and then Evan did the semicolon I needed to go with Sanskrit tattoo he’d done on my neck.
Justin did a great job on the chicken!
The shop has a chill vibe and was very clean. Everyone was extremely friendly and accommodating. I’m sure we’ll all be back!“

“Cody Gurley did an amazing job!! Very professional and attentive to detail. I was thrilled and blown way with the original sketch he created for me. Very talented artist. In addition, the shop is clean and super welcoming. Highly recommend stopping in and/or booking if you are looking to get artwork done.“

“It seems like a great place to go get a tattoo, but I'm still waiting on them to get back with me on a tattoo design that I want done.“

“Best shop ever with the best artists in Tennessee. Everyone I have met that works there has always been welcoming and extremely friendly! I have gotten two tattoos by Ryan with a third booked. Prices are great for the quality of work you receive. I love getting tattooed here and can’t wait for many more!“

“Last month was my first time getting the style of tattoos I wanted, and Ben was super quick to respond and extremely helpful. Our session was amazing and his work was so detailed. Super down to earth, amazing artist, overall cool dude. Have a session with him again tomorrow, and will be going every month. Couldn’t recommend this parlor more to anyone who wants artists who seriously care about their craft. 100/10.“

“In town for a few days and found Flash City. I just wanted to get a couple words done and they got me in right then. I gave them my design idea, got it drawn up, and was tattooed in no time. Clean work and shop. Would definitely recommend.“

“Such a Vibe. Flew in from Utah. Went to their relocated spot located in the Distillery. Brandon got Us both in right away with an appointment made the day prior. The guys were so friendly, and welcoming. Our matching tattoos turned out great. Brandon M. was awesome! Definitely recommend. Not to mention the Distillery is STUNNING!“
