Best Tattoo Shops In Nashville

“Amber was amazing. The best piercing we’ve ever gotten. Quick, clean, and practically painless. She was really informative, knowledgeable and over all just a great person.“

“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.“

“Kim Goff is the best! Her tattoos are consistent, bright and clean. I get compliments everywhere I go. On top of being a great tattooer she is personable and kind. I would recommend her for any project you have“

“Excellent workplace, excellent people; my tattoo artist was Katelyn Joy. Excellent work—I recommend it 100%.“

“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!“

“Kelsey is an amazing person super respectful and kind, I cant wait to come in to get a tattoo!“

“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“

“100% would recommend this place! I stumbled in looking for a shop while I was visiting and was able to get an appointment with Jake. He was so nice and very personable (not to mention all the other staff were extremely friendly as well). You can really tell he is passionate about what he does and it really shows in his work. His fine line work is absolutely amazing and I definitely will be flying back at some point for my next tattoo!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Everyone of the staff I’ve interacted with have been extremely friendly and helpful. Got tattooed with Ryan, excellent artist, great person to spend 4 hours with as they drive needles into your skin. Would book again“

“Matt was incredible - so kind and patient and explained all the details to a first-timer. I couldn’t be more happy with my experience!“

“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!“

“Mary, the piercer, was really nice to work with. She helped me with my nose piercing and was super personable. Cool person and will come visit again!!“

“What a great experience. This is one of numerous tattoos I have. I consulted with fingers on the day before I had it done. He looked at my inspiration photo and created something fabulous! I’m very happy with my tattoo. I am very picky when it comes to tattoos and my expectations were far exceeded 💜. I’ll be back“

“Got an amazing tattoo done here by Katie. She was so patient with me while we explored my design and was happy to make sure it was a tattoo I would love. She was so kind and funny and I enjoyed my time with her as well as am amazed at the work she did. 100% would recommend her work!!“

“Shout out to Brett! Did an amazing job on the tattoo and was super kind and professional. If you’re in East Nashville go here for your ink! Thanks Brett!“
