One Drop Ink Tattoo Parlour and Gallery

One Drop Ink in Nashville exceeded my expectations. I had the pleasure of working with Leah, who was not only punctual but also detail-oriented. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and ensured that the size, placement, and outcome of the tattoo were perfect. Leahs attention to detail and genuine care made the whole experience pleasant and enjoyable. I highly recommend One Drop Ink and Leah for anyone looking for a top-notch tattoo artist in Nashville.

My friends and I were in Nashville for a girls trip and contacted Antonio ahead of time to schedule a session. Needless to say he killed it! He was extremely professional, creative and patient. We got matching tattoos and two of us got additional tattoos. He knows what he’s doing and is cool while doing it. You can’t go wrong in booking with Antonio.

Leah did my tattoo. She did a great job. Her design and execution were perfect. Would definitely recommend.

I loved this place. Was in Nashville for my 21st birthday and decided to do a tattoo, I spoke to Leah a week before coming and scheduled my appointment time. She was honest and very helpful. She helped me with finding the perfect location for it and gave amazing tips. This was my first tattoo and I loved Leah from the first time we talked about it. She did absolutely amazing on my tattoo and perfect for floral pieces.10/10 recommend Leah for your tattoo.

Incredible shop!! The service is amazing and the shop has an awesome vibe!! I got my nose pierced by Mary and a tattoo done by Antonio. I couldn’t recommend them enough - the work was amazing and they were both attentive and kind!!

My Granddaughter and I just stopped in while on vacation to get matching tattoos. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a clean friendly environment stop here!

Leah was amazing - she was knowledgeable, kind, patient and so cool! Her work is fantastic. My sister and I both got tattoos and are so happy!

One Drop is awesome. They took my brother, my sister-in-law, and myself as walk-ins and they were super friendly and helpful. They do an awesome job (shout out to Leah!). Plus they are super queer friendly and woman owned, which is extra cool.

As a first-timer stepping into the world of tattoos, I couldnt have asked for a better experience than the one provided by Leah. From the moment I walked into the studio, I was greeted with fun energy and professionalism.Leah took the time to sit down with me and discuss my ideas, patiently guiding me through the process and offering valuable insights based on their expertise. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring my comfort throughout the session were truly commendable.Not only did Leah bring my vision to life with precision and skill, but they also exceeded my expectations with their creativity and artistic flair. The final result was nothing short of spectacular.I wholeheartedly recommend Leah to anyone looking for a talented and professional tattoo artist. Their passion for their craft, coupled with their exceptional customer service, make them stand out in the industry. Thank you, Leah, for making my first tattoo experience truly unforgettable.

Hello, I was really nervous about being tattooed with me being a dark-skinned woman, but after talking to the artist and actually getting the tattoo its beautiful it shows up beautifully on my skin! Very happy:)

I would give more stars if it were an option!! Went and got my navel redone as well as a double cartilage piercing by Chiicana. I was explaining to she and the lady at the front desk about my prior experience with getting my navel pierced. They both comforted me and reassured me my experience would not be the same at One Drop. All three piercings came out just as I requested. I was so calm and felt very comfortable. Everyone in the shop was so friendly. I would recommend this shop to ANYONE, local or out of town. Definitely plan on returning, maybe for a tattoo next! 10/10!

Went in as a walk in, was out in twenty minutes. Quick and great artwork with a friendly staff. Shoutout to the owner Elisheba(@queenbeeink) for the great work.

Leah did a great job on my tattoo. She was such a good energy to be around. When walking in everyone greeted me and were so welcoming. Leah gave me options and really taught me aftercare.

I really loved the atmosphere of One Drop Ink. Everyone was so friendly, and the artists really seem like a little family.The art all around the studio is brilliant. Leah did my forearm piece, which turned out beautifully! Leah was very communicative throughout the whole process, and she’s so kind and inviting. Lots of interesting conversation and great music, but just as comfortable to sit in silence as well.Highly recommend any of the lovely talented artists at this shop. 💜

Not artist no professionalism, ripped me off $100, for B.S. consultation, wanted full sleeves, and came at me saying he gonna use stencils, F ing joke, old-school bogis, just look at his own ink. Worse than jail house ink

This was my first tattoo experience and I had the best time. The entire staff was welcoming and absolutely a blast to talk to. I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo by Christin. I highly recommend One Drop Ink.

Dahlia makes some great tattoos and was very helpful with my design. I will definitely be going back.

Absolutely wonderful. I was tattooed by Luna who was extremely friendly and did more than was required of her. I came in for my first tattoo after having a terrible history with needles and felt very safe and accommodated for. She presented me with 4 versions of the design I sent in which was much appreciated, even though I decided to go with the original one I submitted. When putting the stencil on she had no issues with moving it around until it was in the perfect place. I did not feel rushed and could tell that she was there for me as the customer. As I said, I am not good with needles and had no idea how I was going to react. I asked if she could go in with a dry needle first just so I could feel it before using the ink and she was more than happy to do so. I actually ended up almost passing out a few minutes in - no fault of hers! - probably not her smoothest session ever but she was so helpful and let me take as much time as I needed and get some water. Even with the couple of hiccups I left the shop after about 45 minutes with the tattoo I have been wanting for years, and it is perfect. Even better than I had originally imagined! She was very clear explaining the aftercare procedures and answered any questions I had about the healing process. I will most definitely be coming back when it is time for my next one. Go see Luna!!!

Chiicana was such a great piercer! I loved her energy, she made me feel welcome and most importantly the nose piercing went wonderfully! I also got a tattoo done by Christin and she was such a joy to be around. She did such a great job on my tattoo and she really made me feel at ease with the whole thing. I met some other great artists here as well and can’t wait to come back for more!!! Everyone was so kind and fun to be around.

Had an absolutely amazing experience at One Drop! We came from out of town for an anniversary weekend and wanted to get tattoos to commemorate our 10th anniversary. We did some research, and reached out to a few tattoo parlors and artists with our ideas. These were our first tattoos so we didn’t know what to expect. Christin reached back out and was so helpful! We emailed back and forth for a few weeks before we ever came to Nashville, and she took great care of us! Everyone in the shop was so nice, we felt like instant family! We are so happy with the results, and are already planning our next trip to Nashville so we can book with Christin! We love that we got to support an African American, female owned business! HIGHLY recommend!

Best place to get tattoos! Christin was my artist and she did an AMAZING job! they all are so professional and very fun and nice to talk with. She made me feel super comfortable! I 100% recommend going here even if its for an impulsive decision tattoo like mine was😆!!

Feel good to be home. Staff always professional, direct and committed. Best Tattoo/Piercing Parlour on the planet simply due to the atmosphere, ambiance and visual aesthetics.One Drop Ink is the finest on and off property!

Mary did my first nose ring piercing. I was scared at first , but she was very comforting, clean and has a gentle touch with a chill personality! It was an amazing experience, I would highly recommend her services to anyone

OMG!!! Mary the piercer was AMAZING!!! This is my first piercing and she was so gentle, knowledgeable, and patient . She educated me thoroughly about what to expect. She gave me so many scenarios that I would never have thought about asking!!! She was the absolute best and everyone needs to get pierced by Mary!!! Don’t go anywhere else!!! She was the bomb!!! Loved my first experience with piercing because of Mary!!!

Dahlia was amazing & I love my piece! She did a great job with the art I gave her & was so quick & professional.

Went here for a drop in tattoo session and had West. Did a great job on the tats and had a great time!

I have known the owner for 4 years and she has done some amazing work. She did my tattoo on Thursday and Im in love with it.

I recently got a tattoo from Old Skool and I couldnt be happier with the results. Not only is the design exactly what I wanted, but the execution was flawless. The lines are crisp and the shading is smooth, creating a stunning piece of art on my skin. Old skool was professional, attentive, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. He took the time to listen to my ideas and worked with me to create a design that perfectly captured my vision. The studio was clean and welcoming, and the equipment was top-notch. I would highly recommend Old Skool to anyone looking for a talented and skilled tattoo artist. Thank you for such an amazing experience!Five stars

Mary the piercer did a phenomenal job with my nose piercing!! She was welcoming, patient, answered my questions, and made the process so easy. Highly recommend. Thank you so much!!!

Christin did a tattoo for me back in may and was one of the best I’ve had. When we came here for the Friday the 13th tattoos I went straight to her catalog and have no regrets. Friendly, easy to talk to. Best tattoo artist in Nashville area!

Luna was the best (incredible taste in music too) and was so accommodating and chill. my tattoo looks GREAT and i would refer her to anyone!! all of the staff was hilarious and i instantly felt welcomed. 5 stars for suuure!

I wish I would have found Ol Skool sooner. He is so down to earth and very talented at his craft. I gave him the artistic freedom to do what he wanted and I’m so glad I did. Thank you so much!! She is gorgeous and I will definitely be back.

Pros: The customer service here is phenomenal. I always leave here feeling pleased with the service provided. The tattoo artists are great, the piercers are very friendly and knowledgeable. The work spaces are clean, the jewelry is very good quality, and the prices are reasonable.Cons: They do not have a large selection of jewelry for fresh or healed piercings, and that has been a problem for me because I am a black person with stereotypical black features. The jewelry that they generally have on hand is not made for me. Ive gotten pierced at One Drop several times, and more often than not, Ive had to change the jewelry because the posts were too short.Now, Ive experienced this at multiple shops, so it is not just One Drop. It just irritates me when I feel the shop would rather make a sale that day, instead of scheduling an appointment 1-2 weeks out so that they can order appropriate jewelry.So, would I recommend this business, absolutely! However, I would definitely call or email ahead if you are getting pierced.

The experience I had at One Drop Ink was by far the best piercing experience I have ever had! The piercer Jaycee was so friendly, welcoming, and easy to talk to. She really cared about how I was doing and if I was happy. I will definitely be coming back for my next piercing!

Thank you Christin for making my first tattoo experience awesome 😊

This tattoo parlour is amazing!! my 3 sisters and i went in together to get tattoos from christin. she was so fast and the tattoos turned out beautifully! really confident line work and perfect shading. she was also patient with us when we wanted the placement of the tattoo drawing changed before she started. the atmosphere of the parlour was also really comfortable and everyone was so nice! thank you ONE DROP INK!!

The place seemed very sketchy, but inside was super cool and very friendly. MaryStabs was soo great, very comforting and did such a great job!! (nose, cartilage and ear pierced)

This is my second piercing at One Drop. I went in for a dermal piercing . It was quick (as quick as a chest dermal can be) and I felt very comfortable the whole time, big plus that the jewelry was included.I’ve been pierced over 15 times and this was the first time I got a follow up communication prompted by them to check on the well being of my piercing - amazing. It’s healing great , she even helped me place some jewelry that had fallen out of my ear.The piercer had an apprentice with her and I do appreciate that she asked me before allowing her to be in the piercing session to watch.Thank you! Will definitely be going back for more.

TBone was amazing! Three of us walked in and he was able to get is all in. His work is incredible and his personality is even better!

Just editing to update my review! One drop is still amazing. Just went and finished out my facial piercings during their holiday special. Chicana is now a full piercer, no longer an apprentice and took care of my upper nostrils to finish out my double stacks! She took her time to make sure everything was perfectly lined up and was wonderful during the lead up to the piercings. Of course the piercer doesnt have a ton of control over the pain levels, but it was definitely as minimally painful of an experience as you can have! Just like with my medusa, plenty of patience and care was exercised. Still highly recommend one droporiginal review: Wonderful place to get beautiful tattoos and safe piercings. The apprentice piercer, Chicana, here is so good that they were able to pierce my medusa without even slightly smudging my lipstick. You can trust that everyone else here is absolutely going to deliver on the quality of their work :) Shop is inclusive and friendly and the main lobby has beautiful artwork hanging up that changes up from time to time. Its not in a super duper busy spot in nashville and there is plenty of parking available too.

Only positive things to say about my recent experience! Elisheba is amazing! My tattoo was exactly what I wanted and healed beautifully. I have gotten so many compliments about the line work alone. The shop is clean and staff was so nice every time I visited. I definitely will be back for more. Elisheba is a talented artist and an awesome person to talk to!

From the time we entered the building, the staff was very friendly. Dee was phenomenal! This was my first tattoo and she made the process easy and comfortable. She was thorough and made me feel very much at ease. The tattoo itself was painless. I would definitely recommend Dee and One Drop!

WHEN I SAY I HAD THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER OL SKOOL MIKE shook my tattoo. He was very respectful and funny af I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK….The way he took the picture I gave him and he made it his own y’all I love how this turned out❤️❤️❤️. Please don’t sleep on one drop ink they doing amazing things. Thank You again

Dee is amazing!!! Once I was able to speak with her she created the design I saw in my head. She is professional, funny, and was great to work with. Dee is talented, kind, and answered all of my crazy questions. The location is clean, convenient, and has a great energy. My only recommendation and why I cant give five stars is to work on communication with potential clients. The process to get a consultation was drawn out (two days) and over email only. When I called I was sent to the website to make the request. I felt as if I was being forced to make important decisions about my tattoo over email when I kept saying I really want to talk to an artist about whats best and alternate ideas. This was my first tattoo, having better communication on the front end would have made me less anxious about the experience.Also, I dropped by because one of my bandages were leaking - the first instruction on aftercare is to not remove or mess with the bandage in all caps. So I figured I could swing by and just get additional bandage put on or get different instructions. Dee wasnt there, someone else took care of me, while I was appreciative for the assistance I did feel like my stopping by was not optimal.

I worked with OlSkool in particular and he was an amazing person to work with as he cared about his work tremendously and did not want to start tattooing before it was where he wanted it. With my tattoo I was coming from out of town and he was able to fit an 18 hour tattoo into two days for me and told me to make sure to come back for a touch up. I was glad to work with someone who could work with my schedule so well. Not only was he a great person, but all the other workers were great people there. The atmosphere was amazing! Definitely would recommend

Came in for my first tattoo and had an awesome experience, friendly staff and highly skilled. Love the atmosphere as well!

Love this place!!! I have gotten 2 tattoos from Christin and her talent is incredible! The whole staff is very friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be getting more work done there.

Chicana did my navel piercing a few weeks ago, and she was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I called the day of my desired appointment and she was happy to fit me in. I have not had any complications with the healing process so far. I would definitely recommend this shop.

This place is supremely well maintained. Staff as well as owner are fantastic. Professional demeanor, workforce. Friendly, efficient, well priced and incredible work. Owners artwork as well is a MUST. Terrific investment for any home. Myself as well as my oldest and a friend all received tattoos via Dee. Shes GREAT! Aarons AMAZING and his family is definitely a GEM in todays world!!!

Amazing experience with @tattmaus @christinbaumgartist! Extremely friendly and professional! Absolutely recommend this place. My girlfriend and I booked for travel tattoos and Christin went above and beyond!

My artist was ol school. He did a great job! I had a rather large tattoo done and it was done fairly quickly and with precision and excellent skill. The finished product is exactly what I wanted and it turned out beautiful. Everyone was very cool and encouraging...this being my first tattoo. I highly recommend

I had a consultation with Michael Ol Skool and he was fantastic! I created a family crest for my boys, 7 & 10. hw went over the actual process of how the ink penetrates into the skin and how important it was to remain as sterile as possible doing the tattoo and all the scenarios that could happen after the tattoo if you dont take of it. Mr. Mike who is also a great artist, made suggestion for potential changes with my crest. Some of writing and numbers were small and he highly recommended we do some changes so that in 5-10 years they wouldnt be just a line of ink. His whole process was awesome once we started and until we finished. I had a lot of shading because he inserted his special touched and creative design into my crest. The shading wasnt pleasant, but his hand was light and precise. when I went to look at it, a tear came to my eye. i was blown away. I cant looking at it! He over exceeded my expectations and took the crest to a different level! Conversation was pleasant, atmosphere was pleasant, and he was very very professional. the rest of the staff was very professional as well! I write music, but I dont play an instrument. The first time I recorded my first song and heard Kenny Chesneys studio band put music to my written and composed lyrics....I shed a tear. they breathed life into my song....Mr. Mike did the same thing to the crest I designed for my two boys. Awesome job! I so Proud of my tattoo!Antonio Lanier

I could not recommend a tattoo shop more highly. From my first contact with One Drop Ink, they were professional, timely, and have amazing artists on staff! I believe in giving an artist an idea or a theme and letting them come up with their own piece. Mike did my tattoo and because it was my first large full color tattoo I was a little nervous. He did an excellent job of explaining everything that was going on, kept a very clean shop, and was great to talk to during the process. I was relaxed the whole time and love my tattoo. The healing process was quick and easy.

I had the most amazing experience at One Drop! My tattoo artist was Dee and she did an amazing job on my first tattoo i’m so obsessed with it! they are super friendly and the place is very clean and they have super cool artwork on the walls. 10/10 would recommend One Drop!

I walked in the door nervous, but excited. The staff were professional, approachable & very easygoing. It’s the best atmosphere for tattoos! My artist was Elisheba & she took an old photo of my mother & brought it to life on my arm. I’m in love with my cover up. I can’t wait for my next appointment. One Drop Ink set the bar so high; that I can’t imagine going anywhere else.

I got a septum piercing from Angelena recently. She was very professional and did an amazing job. She walked me through the whole process and made sure I was comfortable throughout the piercing, also assuring I knew all the aftercare instructions. All the staff I encountered were courteous and professional. I would definitely recommend One Drop Ink and will be coming back.

I came from Chattanooga just because of the customer service from Aaron. He was quick to respond to me and super nice. And he helped me find an artist who suited my needs for my black and grey half sleeve built around a previous tattooed cross. Dee is the artist, and she deserves just as much credit. I could not be happier with my piece and am already planning on coming back to One Drop Ink and Dee to finish my sleeve. She totally is the best artist I have been too. Also, the rest of the staff were friendly and talkative which creates a great atmosphere. I will be driving 2 hours everytime I need a tattoo! Thanks One Drop Ink. And thank you Dee.

Love love love this place. When you go ask for tattoo artist named Old School. I went in with very little details on what I wanted and he helped me find the right tattoo that was just right for me. My tattoos came out perfect!! It was wonderful to find a truly talented artist who I could trust to give me the best result. The service was absolutely excellent! I highly recommend One Drop Ink.

I went here for my first tattoo ever. From the moment I made an appointment to the time I got finished I enjoyed every moment! The staff is very fun, professional, and good vibes! Old Skool did my tattoo and he did an phenomenal job! And he made me feel comfortable and at ease for my first tattoo. If you’re hesitating, STOP!! Come to One Drop Ink for your tattoo!

Elishiba is an amazing person. She made an impact on me after we met making art at a festival in Centennial park many years before her tattoo career began. She has influenced countless people with her brand of positivity and an art style you can recognize miles away. The shop she has grown over the years has echoed her ambition and amplified so many other artists voices. Thanks for everything that you do. We need more artists like you in the world.

Me and my friends came here to get piercings for a birthday celebration! We were so impressed with the service, the cleanliness and how everything was such good quality. We are in healthcare so we know how dangerous some places can be and I would absolutely recommend one drop ink for any services you might need!

My overall experience here was excellent. The vibe is untouchable and the people working there were friendly and professional. I did quite a bit of shopping around online before I got my piercing done at One Drop Ink and I can say that the price + quality was unbeatable. I highly recommend!

So my tattoo artist was Dee she has amazing work I absolutely love my tattoo. I’m the type of person who has second thoughts after I do something but there was no second thoughts with her work, I was so pleased I started to do a lil dance. I had a beaded design around my ankle and I’ve never seen anything look more realistic. The conversation while get the tattoo was was great, the music playing in the background was great, it was just a total vibe. For my experience getting my first tattoo it was amazing.

Ive been going to Elisheba at One Drop Ink for almost 2 years now and I could not be happier with my experiences with her and her shop. I always get exactly what I want. Shes brilliant at taking your ideas right out of your head and putting them to paper and then your skin. Her shop is clean and very friendly! I always feel at home. My tattoos always heal flawlessly and look as good as the day I got them. Also, her prices are more than fair for the phenomenal work she puts out. Highly HIGHLY recommended! Ive been getting tattooed pretty regularly for 12 years and Im so beyond excited I found this shop! Ill be going here for many years to come!Thank you!!!

It was so clean & professional. I loved my piercer, she done my Ashley piercing fast and so perfectly centered. It healed up so good. Loved my experience. The price was also amazing. Will be returning soon.

We were in town for my bachelorette and scheduled a group tattoo, and One Drop Ink was nothing short of fantastic. They were accommodating, straight forward and receptive. The shop was clean, the tattoos are beautiful and the staff was outstanding. Max and D were part of our “panda tribe” while we were there. They were entertaining, professional and fun to be with. Absolutely recommended, will go back for more when we are in town again!

Best tattoo shop in Nashville. Have gotten 3 tattoos there so far and will be going back for more. My last tattoo was done by Maxx and she was awesome. We discussed options and ideas for a tattoo I wanted and it turned out better than I could have imagined. One Drop has great energy, great personalities and great people. Cant go wrong and would definitely recommend.

Everyone at One Drop was so friendly and made me feel at home right away. Coming here for my first tattoo was definitely the right choice, and working with Dee was the greatest. She talked through every step with me and explained everything I asked about and all the things I DIDNT know to ask as a first-timer. I wish I wasnt leaving Nashville so I could work with them again sooner-- (though I may well work it into future trips when I visit!)

Me and my daughter got piercings and everyone was so helpful and friendly and very professional. The piercer was super awesome and made sure I understood how and what was needed to take care of our piercings. I definitely recommend One Drop Ink Tattoo Parlor *THUMBS UP*

Visiting from out of town - wanted to get a souvenir with one of my besties. We opted for small wrist tattoos. One Drop Ink was by far the most responsive of the shops we contacted. As well as the friendliest! Aaron responded to all of our messages with a quickness and really made us feel at home while we were there. Personable and funny guy - thanks for the restaurant tips as well!Dee was able to get us in the day after we contacted. She was professional, friendly and a good conversationalist. Definitely made me feel at ease while getting inked. Tattoo did not take long and I am very pleased with my tattoo! Thanks for obliging us so quickly, Dee!Appreciated the emails with forms and after care instructions. Cas seriously, I would lose any actual paperwork. Overall, a 5 star experience! Would definitely recommend this shop. And wished I lived closer as the portfolios of Dee and the other artists here are amazing.

Luna (Alkali Ink) is amazing! I have gotten 13 tattoos from her so far because I can’t help but to keep coming back!!! The line work, the shading, the artistry; she truly makes your vision come to life. A pleasure to work with 🫶🏼

Amazing experience from start to finish.Our artist was professional and knowledgable.We did the stencil on one appointment, and after some small adjustments, we were able to get a pretty decent tattoo done in 3 hours.Our time with our artist was great and full of interesting conversations.

I love One Drop Ink!!! I got my second piercing last month and I have not had any issues. The shop is clean and the staff is very friendly. I was given instructions about how to keep my piercing cleaned and I have been doing fine. I definitely recommend this shop :)

I got my first tattoo with Mollie Rowe at One Drop Ink and absolutely loved it. The space was clean and organized. She was incredibly professional and her work is beautiful, I’m so happy to have it on my body for life. This was the perfect spot for a first timer.

I had an incredible experience at One Drop. I got a watercolor galaxy band done on my forerm by Ol Skool Mike and he was amazing. He listened to my ideas in the consultation and gave constructive feedback so we could get a really good design going. He was engaging and fun to work with. My tattoo took longer than expected and he still took his time and didn’t rush the piece. I’m so beyond happy with his work and I’d highly recommend One Drop to anyone thinking of getting a tattoo. The people who work here are artisans and they take their craft seriously but they’re so nice and welcoming too. I also got my septum pierced here last December and Angelina was great and super nice (with it being my first non ear piercing I was super nervous). She made me feel safe and welcome. I love One Drop a lot.

Christin was amazing! Great conversation and a beautiful tattoo! The staff makes you feel welcome and at home will not go-to another place from now on!

Ol Skool Mike was terrific! I was a little nervous and he made me less anxious and comfortable. This was my first tattoo....I would highly recommend him! The session went smoothly, and the atmosphere was very relaxing! Ol Skool stories and jokes made my session go by fast. Because I was laughing the whole time... My tattoo came out beautiful ❤️ Chiicana front of the house clerk was great! See you soon for my next one... Thanks again 🙂

Quick and easy and it didnt hurt. I went in for one piercing and ended up asking for a second while I was still in the chair. They are clean and careful and everything I saw from other people was great too. And the price was great! Overall very impressed. If I lived near here Id definitely come back!

Unique house/building and friendly staff. I was a first time walk in. Had to wait much longer than originally stated upon arrival, but it was 9:00 on Saturday evening, what do you expect?? The smoothie guy was very nice and gave out free smoothies to the 5 of us waiting. Theyre normally $8 I believe. Great special they had going on: $20 for most piercings I think? Ill be back!

Customer service is first and foremost here. They came up with a great design for my father passing and remembrance tattoo. Prices are fair. Lets face it you want a good quality tattoo you need to pay some hard earned money for it. It was well spent here.

Just received my first tattoo here and the experience was amazing, old school(Michael) did a hell of a job. Very professional, friendly but more importantly detailed. I will definitely be coming back for all of my art. They rock!

This was my first tattoo and although I brought a friend for support I was still super nervous..... I am so glad that they held up to the reviews I saw online. T-Bone did my tat and he was amazing.. from the end results to making me feel comfortable and the other staff that was there was super friendly. Im glad I picked them. 5 stars for me

Went in with a awesome tattoo idea and the artist had a great vision for it too. Planned to do a sleeve and had plenty of time for them to draw up the idea, I get there for my first session and it’s 3 characters that were just printed off. They told me to trust the process so against my best judgement I decided to let them tattoo my first two characters. My line work is so beyond messed up and blown out in numerous spots I now have to get the whole top of my left arm lazer removed and start completely fresh. When I went to say something to my artist they didn’t even remember who I was. I was charged 500 dollars for very poor shakes lines and no shading. Definitely do not recommend.

Elisheba is an amazing artist. All three tattoos I’ve gotten from her are BEYOND amazing. I love her work, and can’t wait to finish adding pieces to make my sleeve. Highly highly HIGHLY recommend. If you’re looking for a place with a chill atmosphere, great music, and dope tattoos, GO HERE! And if you’re not... well, you should and go here anyway!!!

My first tattoo experience was amazing! I was a walk in and Leah was exceptional. Totally recommend!

Hands down, I could NOT be happier with my tattoo! I was super nervous about getting one, but from the minute I walked in I was at ease. We came to Nashville for a girls weekend, and I knew I couldn’t leave without getting one. This place had the BEST reviews, and now I know why. I’m already planning my second one, and I’ll definitely be back here when I’m ready to do it!! THANK YOU!!

After the initial line art my friend and I started singing Disney music and my artist joined it because it helped with the pain. The whole experience was amazing from the front desk to this review. I definately plan on getting my tattoos and piercings done here from now on even though its an hour trip. Totally worth it!

Elisheba is very friendly and knowledgeable about tattoos. This isnt my first time here and Ive always had the best experience when I go. I cant wait for my next tattoo. If youve not been to this shop you should definitely think about getting your next tattoo here.

I went to get my nose pierced in September & the shop was Super clean and Welcoming. It Almost felt like they came to my home. T-Bone did Such a great job with my Nose ring i allowed him to Re-do My Deep Tissue Piercing (Nipple) and it is Beautiful.

I adore everyone who works here! I got my ears pierced for the first time, double on both lobes, and they were the sweetest! Easy to talk to and down to earth but super professional and clean

So as far as piercings go, Ive had almost 30. Ive gotten them in many different facilities and several states but I would like to say that I dont want to go to anyone else at this point.Angelena takes SUCH good care of me every time I visit and has amazing communication. We discuss positions and options beforehand and pros and cons. She isnt afraid to tell me if something wont work with my anatomy, and is very up front about how everything works and that really helps me feel comfortable and at ease. This is a good, clean, professional environment and I always send friends (and strangers) here if they mention needing a piercing or a tattoo. Thank you for being such a good place for me to use!

I liked the quality of service I received at One Drop Ink!! They were very professional and the inside was very clean. Michael made me feel very comfortable. I enjoyed the conversation and also the music playing in the background!! Great vibe!! Would definitely recommend the place of business to family and friends.

First and foremost let me just say how AMAZING this place is!! From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted with true hospitality.. the shop itself has some of the most awesome decor. Now onto the staff.. I’ve had a few different staffers help me.. this is the place to come to for all your tattoo or piercing needs. Giving them 5 stars isn’t even good enough.. they deserve 10!

One Drop Ink is an amazing shop that is more than just a tattoo parlor, and that is one reason I chose to have a sleeve started by the shops owner, Elisheba. Not only is she a talented tattoo artist, she also creates beautiful works of art in other mediums. It was important for me to find a true artist that could envision my ideas, and I have found my tattoo home here at One Drop. I wholeheartedly recommend coming here, the entire staff is welcoming and friendly and will make you feel right at home.

I will always come here for my tattoos....Elishiba is super dope and once you give her an idea she creates MAGIC! Been coming to her since 2012 and will recommend to anyone!. The entire shop is awesome! Thank you for all you do and your creativity...

T-Bone, my tattoo artist, made my first tattoo experience a great one. Everyone in the shop is knowledgeable and friendly. The shop is clean and you can just tell that the people there really love what they do. They were also having a special on tattoos last night, I am not sure if that is a regular thing or not but its worth checking the place out on the regular. Again, T-Bone was the best.

Everyone so friendly. Elisheba is my tattoo artist she very personable, very thoughtful and care about your comforter, already very helpful with another tattoo idea I’m wanting for my next visit. I would say she’s very outstanding alone with her quality of work.

Knowledgeable and nerdy. I can only speak to piercings so far, though -- having just experienced new piercings elsewhere after my old ones from here failed (even following their care instructions), I can safely say that my experience there was more in the vein of Claires, and have since received much more thorough info on aftercare from another shop, especially for my specific skin type. They also have no real scheduling system, which is a shame for something you may have to plan your day around.

Yooooo, dopest, professional tattoo artist in the Nashville area! Mike was great and friendly. Cool atmosphere and greats vibes. Ill definitely be back soon!

I have been watching Elisheba for a while now with her art work and finally worked up the courage to set up and appointment. I’m so excited about my tattoo, my experience as well as the friendliness of her and the staff. I cannot wait to continue my future sessions with her! There is definitely a sense of comfort with her vibe from beginning to end!Thanks Queen!

I had the best time at this tattoo shop. They were extremely patient. I got 2 tats and scheduled for 2 more. My family even came thru and booked. You should too. They even give new artists with amazing talent a shot. These guys are awesome!

I went to One Drop for my first tattoo. My artist was @olskoolmike (Instagram) and this was a completelygreat experience! Because it was my first, I was a little nervous. However, the process was extremely easy and everyone at the shop including Mike was extremely professional. 10/10 would recommend AND it’s black owned. *chef’s kiss*

I had a great experience with One Drop Ink. They were really helpful and responsive with my inquiry and booking, and the studio was really clean. Dee was an amazing artist and completed my piece exactly as visualized. Would definitely recommend this female owned business!!

I got a small tattoo done by Dawn and loved the experience! You could tell she loves body art and wanted to know about the tattoo/ why I was getting it. There was never any judgement and it came out perfect! I’d definitely be back if I find myself in Nashville again!

I got the most beautiful tattoo from Dee a couple of weeks ago. She listened to what I wanted and drew up something absolutely beautiful. Its perfect, its got beautiful dot work and stippling just like I wanted. I even got a tiny thing of shea butter that has helped it heal beautifully.

I really couldn’t ask for a better tattoo experience. I flew from Rhode Island and the entire experience was well worth the trip! All the staff was friendly and welcoming. The energy of the entire shop was so great. Elisheba was awesome to sit for and I am in love with the design she came up with based on my vague request of “intersectional feminist tattoo” and some key elements i really wanted. Thank you all for a great time!

Piercers and artists were very polite. The shop was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I received my first nostril piercing and everything went smoothly, and it is healing quite well. I will be a returning customer!

Thank You So Much Christin For Our Matching Pinky Promise Tattoos For My Mom And I Also For My Dad’s Handwriting The Tattoos Turned Out Amazing We Love Them Christin Was Awesome Everyone Was So Friendly And Welcoming 🙌🏻

I highly recommend One Drop Ink Tattoo Parlour. I have never felt more at-ease in a tattoo parlour than I did at One Drop. The atmosphere breathes creativity, and the artists are friendly, experienced, and welcome a diverse clientele. I went to a visiting artist, Mollie Row, and I am happy to support a space that fosters inclusion and makes space for traveling artists as well as local artists. I will definitely be going back and recommending One Drop to my friends!

One drop ink is always my first place to get a tattoo. The artist are fun and wonderful and full of information. I am always happy with my tattoos, they explain how to take care of my new tattoo and they even have a cream to help with the healing. They also do piercings.

My sister and I were visiting Nashville and wanted to get our sister tattoos while there. Woth no appointment they were very accommodating. Dee nailed our Fox tattoos. All of the artists are very friendly as well. Especially from being out of town, we were nervous but definitely will head back there for another on our next trip!

One Drop Ink was highly recommended to me by a good friend. I went in to get my nose pierced on Saturday night. The experience was great and afterwards I loved it. Surprisingly there was no pain. I woke up the next morning and my ring had sunk into my nose. Still no pain but I was worried. I read all of the aftercare instructions that were given to me and found no information about this particular issue. So I went online and read information that stated in so many words this should not happen with a skilled piercer. I went back into the shop on today (2 days later) and was told the could try to re-pierce it through the same hole with a larger stud for $10 eventhough it was no fault of my own. Also the only stud colors they had left were pink and blue and I just wanted a clear one. The other option was to come back later once they get more stock in and pay for a whole new piercing. Needless to say Im not a happy customer. I was so disappointed because I was very pleased with my experience and I referred other people. I wanted to be able to patronize them again but at this point I am not pleased with the outcome of this situation. I understand this is one of the reasons they get you to sign those consents and there are risks to anything you do but Im not trying to get over on anyone, I just wanted to get the service I paid for done correctly and not pay again when I did nothing wrong.

I had an AMAZING experience. I got my septum pierced. Torince took his time, made sure the jewelry looked right, and fit correctly. I am coming back for my tats. I found a new tat and piercing home. I was a walk-in and there was no wait. I also went on a Tuesday after work. Great place with great people!!!

Getting my nose pierced here was a really awesome choice. the people in the shop made me very comfortable and kept the mood light so that i was ready when my time came. i will most definitely be going back soon.

I had 9 tattoos before I decided I wanted one more and one covered up. I had been following all the artists of One Drop Ink for a while on Instagram before I reached out. Needless to say the experience was beyond expectations. Elisheba was wonderful, sweet and fun. And for some reason I felt like it didn’t hurt as much as usual. I like that she has you stand in a natural, relaxed position when she puts the stencil on you as that’s your everyday posture and they give you their homemade ointment to use after the first tape is removed. And they use medical grade tape (ever been tattooed by a guy that uses plastics wrap?). I could go on and on and on. Best experience ever and very recommended. If she runs the shop that way, I can trust that ANY of her artists are wonderful

T-Bone really did a great job on my tattoo. It was my first tattoo and he was personable and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. I have no hesitation about going back to One Drop Ink and scheduling another appointment with T-Bone. Thanks!

Me, my sister, and a close friend went to One Drop for their Black History Month tattoo special. We had a great time looking at awesome artwork and we also got tattoos. Angelena did an awesome job on my Adinkra tattoo! It’s healed very nicely and I barely had any discomfort during the healing process. She did a great job, I’ll definitely be back for more ink :)

One Drop Ink tattoo has got to be one of the greatest joints out there. Staff is super friendly. My tattoo artist, Elisheba, is a phenomenal artist. She is so dope that Im going to get another tattoo on my right arm this time and shes the only artist for me.

Ol Skool Mike was good guy and cares about his clients and does great work

T-Bone was awesome! He was very personable and exceeded my expectations!! I have a few other tattoos, but my experience here with T-Bone was the best! I’ll definitely be back for future tattoo work. Thanks T-Bone and One Drop Ink!!

The entire staff was great and my artist, Mike, was fabulous! Not only did my tattoo turn out great, but I loved hearing about his other artwork on display and his background. Mike kept me laughing and smiling!

First class experience from beginning to end! I wanted to continue celebrating my birthday with a custom tattoo and they were able to get me in for a consultation and appointment the very week that I called. Everyone was very professional and polite, and the shop had a warm and welcoming atmosphere as well. I wanted Elisheba to tattoo me, since I am an advocate for black owned female entrepreneurs. She exceeded my expectations! I gave her my vision, and she came up with 3 gorgeous designs and collaborated with me to get the final look. She had the vibes going with Ms. E Badu, and she had me done within an hour and some change! I am so in love with my tattoo, she is pure fire!!! I highly recommend One Drop Ink to any and everyone!

Ive now gotten two tattoos here from Luna and I am so impressed by the work. I love them both so much. Ive also seen the the work of other artists here and would be happy to get tattooed by any one of these talented artists.

Lovely! The staff is welcoming and kind. Dee is the artist I am working with and she is a dream. Listens, great work, and fast. This place is my new go to for tattoos and i would highly recommend it to anyone.

Leah was gret did a best friend tattoo for our girls trip. Was very professional and the vibes at the shop was amazing.

My wife and I visited One Drop during The Middle Tennessee Anime Convention,where they set up in a hotel room. My wife decided to get a tattoo, and I was impressed enough to get one of my own not long after! Regardless of where they are set up, all of the artists make you feel like youre at home, and the quality, professionalism, and friendliness is worth visiting for alone. I would highly recommend One Drop for anyone getting a tattoo or piercing, first time especially!

Everyone was so kind and welcoming when I walked in, my artist Maxx made sure to explain everything she would have to do to the sketch I gave so it can last as long as possible! And it turned out great I love it and everyone that sees it gives me compliments on it as well. Definitely going back whenever I crave a new one!

I went to two different tattoo artists in PA for a cover up. The first told me a feather wasnt possible. The second (and well known) told me it would be tricky but to email him ideas and hed get right back to me with a drawing and weeks later I still hadnt heard back. I came to Nashville to visit my bf and really wanted to surprise him (the tattoo was my exs name - I know, STUPID). So I thought Id get on Google and search some shops. I came across One Drop Ink with amazing reviews so I figured Id try them out and Im so glad I did! First - theyre friendly and awesome. I walked in, explained what I wanted and what I had told the previous artists and within and hour, T-bone had a beautiful feather drawn up for me! They made it laid back, comfortable and although it hurt like hell, it was well worth it. I spent the day there and walked away increbidly happy. - something two other artists gave me the run around on, One Drop Ink had done in one day. HIGHLY recommend!

I had scheduled a Harry Potter tattoo with olskoolMike from the consultation to the actual tattoo ONE DROP INK TATTOO PARLOUR IS AMAZING. Mike really put small details into my wand that I love and made it stand out. I cant wait to go back. The reception area has beautiful works of art there I loved the vinyl and mask pieces. Check them out and ask for Mike.

When my husband and I travel we always get travel tattoos. When we decided to travel to Nashville and found One Drop Ink we imediately fell in love with Elishebas work. She worked with us long distance to plan out tattoos that were in her style. Even when we had to cancel our first trip the shop went out of the way to hold our deposit for a year until we finally made it out to Nashville.The shop and all the people are amazing. We had so much fun hanging out with Elisheba all night as she did our tattoos. They both turned out amazing with clean lines and colors that just popped! She even gave us an amazing food suggestion that we ate between our tattoos.

Got my tragus and helix piercing done at One Drop Ink. Angelena was the bomb. She was very relatable, friendly and professional. You can tell she loves what she does and she wants to give you the best results you are looking for. I would definitely recommend and plan on going back!

The tattoo artist old school did my tattoo. Very professional very honest about what youre going to get. The lady at the front desk was very awesome and shes very friendly!! I will be back to bring my husband to have matching tattoos!

Went for a coverup yesterday and Elisheba got me right!!!!! She is very professional and played great music during my tattoo lol. I recommend one drop ink to anyone looking to get a tattoo no matter the size. Thanks for this amazing piece! I am already planning my second piece.

5 stars does not do One Drop Ink justice. I love, love, love these guys. Everyone in the shop was welcoming and I could not be more pleased with my experience there. I was planning a bachelorette trip from out of state and Dee took so much time to plan every tattoo the girls had in mind. Maxx took care of the bride and in my opinion, gave her the nicest tattoo I’ve ever seen. By the end of our time there, it felt as if Maxx and Dee were a part of the gang. Next time I am in Nashville, I will be going back to One Drop Ink.

What can I say? The stars tell it all!I am one of very many happy customers. I was extremely impressed by the number of 4- and 5-star reviews of both tattoo and piercing services at One Drop and decided to give it a go for a rook piercing for me and some basic lobe piercings for a dear friend. We called ahead to make sure a piercer would be there, which I recommend. I spoke to a few friendly, helpful, and interesting people on the phone and in the store up until the reason for my visit.I was especially excited to support a business operared by people of color, especially in the south. I immediately felt comfortable and not judged in this place of business, and the feeling continued throughout my time here.I had the absolute pleasure of working with T-Bone for my piercings. He clearly has many years of experience, is knowledgeable about what hes doing, and is a great conversationalist to boot. Make sure to be straightforward about questions you have about whats going on or just in general about piercings, otherwise hes gonna stick you and be done. No qualms here about the sanitation of his work, either. This guy is old hat and good practices are clearly second nature to him.My companion and I had such an awesome time at our first visit that we came back a week later to get a snug (me) and an industrial (my companion). Once again, we called ahead to be sure of availability, this time for T-Bone in particular. Generally speaking, Mr. Bone isnt in the office on Saturdays unless scheduled for a tattoo. Hes damn good with people and has excellent bedside manor for different personality types, and we yet again had an extremely pleasant time.One Drop sends you copies of your consent form, receipt, and thorough aftercare instructions as the needle goes in, which I really appreciated. They also keep your info in their system in case you have complications or come back. Prices for piercings were fair and the quality of starter jewelry they use is good, though not much customer choice in how it looks. What they might lack in variety of jewelry style options they make up for in range of sizes (gauges and lengths). I have a nickel allergy, so be sure to be explicit with your piercer about any similar allergies or known adverse reactions ASAP in your appointment.Unfortunately,I had a pretty nasty reaction to my snug piercing, which made me look like I got smacked in the ear and swelled up like a MFer. All of the other 5 holes that my companion and I got from One Drop healed quickly and properly, and I do NOT attribute the trauma to my ear to any practice of T-Bone. I got my piercings done quite close together in time during a hot summer and slept on my fresh snug, which I believe was the main source of irritation. As soon as I knew something was up (this was my 12th piercing), I gave One Drop a call and dropped by to let T-Bone take a look. He was very frank with me about the how severe my reaction was and gave me options for how to move forward. Ultimately, we ended up letting the inflamed hole and ear heal, and in 2 weeks from writing this review Ill go back to have the piercing re-done -- On the house, which T-Bone graciously offered me.TL;DR: I love this place and will be sure to stop by the next time Im in town. I just wish Id been a customer sooner! Look no further for your piercing needs, and call ahead. Happy body modification to all!!

These guys are the best! They do everything possible to make sure you’re comfortable and the artists are all so talented, especially my guy Ol Skool!! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tattoo in Nashville.

Thank you Angelina for my daith piercing! You really made my experience enjoyable, you reassured me that it would be uncomfortable in getting but it wouldnt hurt and YOU delivered. Oh and cant forget you changing the top to my dermal as well.🗣thank you ms featherweight fingers !👍👌 I look forward to coming back through again soon.

I came here mid June to get some butterflies across my chest. Maxx knew her stuff. She gave me helpful advise and then some. Also, she was a total pleasure to chat with while getting my tat done. Awesome shop with awesome and very knowledgeable artists!

This whole team is awesome, but Elisheba is truly amazing with her artistry. I entrusted her with a portrait of my deceased mother, and I was tearing up before she was even done, as I literally watched my mother come to life through her work. Not to mention she took two pictures of my mother and literally mashed them together to create a dead on portrait. All hail the Queen! I am anxiously awaiting my next session.

Got a face tattoo!!! Alright alright relax, ma. I just got my eyebrows microbladed and Megan /browgamenewyork is an artist! She was sweet and deft and they look um? What do the kids say? On fleek? What? Oh ? No one says that anymore? Ok fine. I’m very happy with the outcome.Also, Elisheba, the owner of One Drop, is a titan of our community and a champion of the people. It was lovely to support this business and feel welcomed and cared for. Can’t wait to go back.

I was a walk-in tattoo that they were able to accommodate. The staff was very friendly and gave me advice on how big to get it so that my tattoo will look good for years. I appreciated their experience and their tattoo shop was very clean. I would definitely recommend this place!

The first time I got my piercings, everyone was nice. I loved it though. Recently I decided to get a few more piercings. I’ve tried going back to this shop every weekend for the last past month and it’s always the same excuse, either their piercer isn’t there or someone doesn’t answer the phone.

Really nice shop, very clean and everyone who I met there was super nice, helpful, and professional. Dee was wonderful in drawing up what I wanted and working with me to make it perfect. Love my new piece so so much and will definitely be sending people her way :)

Ok Skool Mike was awesome 👍🏾! Made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. He is a great tattoo artist! I will definitely be returning for another tattoo!

The experience at One Drop Ink was awesome!Michael Ol Skool did my tattoo. We had a consultation prior to my session so he could understand exactly what I wanted to have done. Hes an amazing artist and I love the end result. Ill definitely be back for my next one and would recommend One Drop and Ol Skool to anyone!!

I got my first tattoo from here a couple weeks ago. Had a great collaborative experience. These guys are the best and cant wait to get my next one.

My artist was Ol Skool and I can’t recommend him enough. The experience from start to finish was smooth and welcoming. The entire staff is awesome, and their attention to detail is top notch. The shop is clean and parking is plentiful. Definitely will be back for my next piece.

Elisheba did a small memorial tattoo for me. She is so wonderful! She designed a tattoo that was better than I had asked for, she is gentle, funny, and caring. AND I get compliments all the time, anyone who knew my husband knows exactly what the tattoo represents. Thank you friend!

Amazing, talented, professional artists. Great, friendly environment. Clean shop, and very reasonably priced for the high quality tattoos and piercings you will receive from these awesome people. I will never go anywhere else again for my tattoo work. 10/10

Came here to get my first ever tattoo during a vacation down here from Minnesota, and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Michael “Old Skool” Mucker did an amazing job with my tat, was great to work with, and was able to get it done at a very reasonable cost. Definitely worth considering if you ever get a tattoo in Nashville!

Just took my 7 year old to get her ears pierced. Guy at the desk was nice, we got back quickly and Angelena was absolutely amazing and such a sweetheart in the entire process and super patient with my nervous little girl. Couldnt be happier!!

Such a great experience at One Drop Ink! Got my first tattoo, Maxx was able to make all of my ideas into a beautiful piece of art! It was quick, easy, and turned out exactly how I wanted it to!

At a convention, my friends and i decided to get piercings and a tattoo. All of which had some kind of negative experience. The people were nice, however, the tattoo was VERY over priced. For a basic piece we were charged $450 when every other tattoo artist weve encountered said it should only be $250. And our piercings: nipple piercings still bleeding and sore after 6 months, a helix that is constantly sore, and first lobe piercings done with a gun??? From my basic understanding, that is the worst thing to use. I was appalled when my friend told me that professionals used a piercing gun.I understand that this was a convention setting, but given that it is multiple concerned/unhappy cases, our overall experiences were ruined. Will not return or recommend.

Very quick response from Aaron he got us booked within our vacation time and we also took his recommendation on food and it was very good. Dee did awesome on our little panda tattoos. Shes also funny😄

So my husband surprised me on our 2-year anniversary with a trip to this tattoo parlour! If anything I was totally not prepared but he told me he was so pleased with how quickly they were available the day before to help him when he walked in to set everything up and how customer friendly they were bc they were about to close but still took the time and effort to welcome him in and answer his questions for our appt the next day. We got matching tattoos and T-Bone Brown took the BEST care of us! Now this T-Bone is a troublemaker (in a good way)! He has a spirit and sense of humor as colorful as his purple beard! He was amazing and even though I was totally unprepared to get a tattoo, all my nerves were gone thanks to him. This ain’t no quiet stuffy parlour...you will be quite entertained with the convo, jokes, and browsing local art for sale. We highly recommend One Ink Tattoo Parlour and we’re so happy with our new ink. Hubby did good! Thanks T-Bone (Red) Brown!

On vacation and decided to get a tattoo as a souvennir. Maxx was able to fit me in as a walk in and immediately worked up the image I wanted. I had a terrific experience enjoying all of her toys while she worked. Very quick, lovely art, just what I wanted. Positive experience all around.

I just recently got a tattoo from Ol Skool on September 10th and it looks amazing!!! He is such a professional and his work is amazing. He has done several of my tattoos and he makes it a gun experience! Everyone in the shop is great!!

Omg where do I start ? One drop ink is an amazing tattoo shop , they are very professional and very fun to be around . The shop itself is amazing and very artsy ! It’s such a vibe in there and I love every bit . Ol skool mike tattooed me and I absolutely loooveee my tatt and everything about it . Mike took what I said and made it into something way better . This tatt is so me ! And I will be back for more . This black owned tattoo shop is the best thing popping in Nashville .

One drop ink is the best!!!! Elisheba ALWAYS have me satisfied with all the tattoos she has done for me!!! Love the quality and how very detailed she is in her art....the establishment is very nice and well organized..the whole team there is wonderful..Would recommend to anyone..!!

Ms. elisheba was super cool, supportive and friendly. the shop experience was amazing it was comfortable and the overall vibe was very satisfying. drove all the way from memphis to receive this experience and my tattoo is crazy 🔥🔥 if you’re not coming here you’re sleep!

I came to One Drop Ink to get my first tattoo and they were PHENOMENAL!! Old School did my tat and he was very gentle and patient with me and VERY time effcient. I will definitely come back!

My husband and I are from PA and wanted to get tatts while in Nashville. Everyone was so nice from the moment we walked in! Maxx did our tattoos and she was exceptional!!!! Did exactly what we asked and was so informative and helpful and also fun to get to know! We love our tatts and are looking forward to stopping in again next year when we come back to Nashville!

Great tattoo experience at one drop ink! Maxx worked with what I wanted and helped make my dream a reality.All the staff is really talented at what they do and they have a comfortable and healthy environment and report with clients and one another.

Went in as a walk in for a rook or daith piercing, Angelena was so helpful and we chose the piercing and jewelry that would best fit my ear. I got a lil nervous so she had another staff member come hold my hand. Really great experience 10/10

The ratings arent up for no reason, One Drop Ink was awesome with my piercing. (I cant think of his name) but he talked me through the entire process along with breathing tutorials. Lol....Love it. Everything was sterile and neat. Michelle whose name I do remember lol checked me in and was very polite. I was wondering where I was going to go to get my tattoo brushed up NOW I KNOW! Oh and the art in the studio is breath taking! Literally ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! #NashvillesBest

MICHAEL “OL SKOOL” MUCKER was great . I was very nervous before receiving my cover up tattoo, but he kept me laughing the entire time. Ive received so many compliments on my tattoo. I love it! I would defiantly recommend One Drop Ink.

Dee is amazing! She captured exactly what I was looking for. I cant wait to go back and have her touch up an old tattoo. I wish I had found her a long time ago! Everyone in the shop is super friendly!

The studio is clean and full of beautiful artwork. Dee was amazing and easy to communicate with. She was able to create the perfect tattoo and I couldn’t be more happy with it. Highly recommend this studio!

Dee is so amazing. I love my tattoo. She answered any question I asked thoroughly. My co workers love my Harry Potter tattoo. What a beautiful shop with amazing artwork. I will be back soon. Thank you so much.

Wonderful, professional, very artistic, and super creative. Clean atmosphere and so concerned with making sure you happy and taken well care of. I will never go any where else to get a tattoo again. This is a long term friendship and so happy I stopped in and got work done.

I got a tattoo at the recent con they went to, MTAC. Its across my entire forearm, and is brickwork ish lettering, GO BEYOND PLUS ULTRA with little bits of vague simple debris around it. It cost 450 in total, and my artist was T-Bone! Everyone was super friendly and familiar with one another. It was a bit over priced, but considering it was an event, Im not too surprised. I love the tattoo and it is lovely as hell. No regrets here, and I definitely recommend these folks if you want a tattoo.This was my first one, and T-Bone talked me through it. I have a phobia of needless but he kicked ass at comforting me. Tdlr, good group of folks that deserve consideration. And, yeah, anime tattoos are a hell yeah if thats what you need.Give them a shot, trust me.

Mike did such a great job from beginning to end! I appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to take the time needed to perfect the art. Thank you, Ol Skool, and the rest of the team, for everything! Highly recommend One Drop Ink to those looking for new ink (:

One drop Ink is the only place ill go for piercings from now on. In November Tbone pierced my nipples I was SO nervous and he was so patient with me. I love them they both look amazing.Theres a great feel to the place. After getting my nipples pierced I was feeling spontaneous and decided to get a tattoo from a different spot that will remain nameless and it was the shittiest tattoo ever. I kept thinking why didnt I just go to Tbone for my first tattoo. 2 weeks ago im at work and i see this girl with a nice hand tatt and she tells me that Tbone tatted her.Ill be back to see him for a cover up in February. I cant wait 💕

T Bone did my tattoo, I am more than pleased with the result! This pic does not do it justice, I cant wait to see it when it finally heals.

One Drop is a one-of-a-kind, unique gem in Nashville ! These are artists...that just happen to work on skin -- which makes it even more amazing to see the quality of their work. I got a custom piece here on a Saturday night, and it happened to be the Jefferson Street Art Crawl [Co-Founded by One Drop owner and artist, Elisheba Mrozik] featuring a local artists work using wood block carving, plus beautiful custom paintings fill the hallway-- which made it even more of a community/family-type atmosphere. I might have to get more tattoos just to have an excuse to go back and hang out. Dee Conaway hand illustrated the idea I had in my head, and worked with me to make it exactly what I wanted. All my other tattoos were done in Brooklyn, and they dont have anything on One Drop... for skills, environment and personality. Thanks, Dee!

This particular review is for the tattoo artist, TBone. He did such a great job on my husband’s tattoo that my husband wanted to schedule a consultation for another tattoo. His consultation was scheduled for 5:30, we drove 45 minutes (from Clarksville) and arrived there at 5:15. The receptionist was informed and she let him know that his 5:30 consultation arrived. We sat there until 6:15 and finally let the receptionist know that we’d been waiting for 45 minutes. Before we rescheduled, she wanted to check in just to find out that he went to grab a bite to eat. He did this without saying a word to his client. So unprofessional. I can pretty much tell that everyone else in the shop is pretty professional that’s why I hate to give 3 stars but I just wanted to inform future clients what could potentially happen if you book with TBone.

Had an awesome experience here today! Came in for my first tattoo with T-Bone, he was extremely cool and Im very happy with the result. Ill definitely be back for more tattoos in the future!

I booked my appointment after consultation with oldskooland we agreed on a final price on whatever design I wanted. Not hearing from him, and by this time its a month before my appointment, I sent over a sketch of the design I wanted to have done. I then received notice that oldskool wanted to charge an extra $150 than the price we agreed on, prompting me to contact oldskool and try to talk down the price. I wasnt able to book another consultation until a week before my appointment. When I arrived I was greeted with attitude and rudeness. He refused to change the price no matter any changes I tried to make to the size or the details of the design. Saying things like I dont know why were having this conversation and Im not going to change anything. I even tried to see if we could work off his drawing that he had in mind and he could only show me a picture off the internet he found that day. When I asked for my refund he stormed out the room and started yelling and bad talking me to the owner. Had it not been for the kind receptionist and the owners approval for my refund, this would be a 1 star rating.

Old school Mike did a fantastic job, he was very knowledgeable in what he was doing and considerate of my pain threshold! Love this shop which I could give more than 5 stars! Come see Mike to get a masterpiece done, u wont be sorry, going anywhere should be considered a crime if u live in the Nashville area!

First tattoo and I picked the right place! My artist, Dee, was great. Not only talented but super patient with this rookie. Doesn’t matter if it’s your first or your an old pro, you should go to One Drop!

I got my navel piercing here and I was super impressed with how clean everything was. The piercer was super nice and definitely knew what she was doing. The girl at the front was also super chill and helpful.

This was my first tattoo experience and it was very smooth. Painless, professional and great vibes throughout the shop! Ill definitely be coming back soon.

This is my second tattoo with Tbone at One Drop. Tbone is an amazing artist. He does a great job listening to what you are looking for and creating a piece to match it. He takes his craft seriously and his work shows. He is the only guy I’ll go to going forward. Highly recommend him and One Drop!

First tattoo was at One Drop. Ole Skool made me feel incredibly comfortable and did an amazing job. Would definitely recommend, especially if youre a first timer.

Dee did an amazing job with the design I brought her. It was a very pleasant experience for my very first tattoo. I look forward to working with her again soon!

Dee is delightful!!! She did an awesome job! She has a great personality that helps with someone who has an extremely low pain tolerance...lol! My tattoo is beautiful!!!

Ole skool did an amazing job. Very detailed!

Elisheba is an amazing artist. She drew a custom design from my description. She does a great job bringing the tattoo to life. Everyone was very friendly. I cant wait to have my tattoo finished.

Not from around Nashville, and really wanted to get inked before heading back to PA! Got this place recommended by a Lyft driver. Staff were super nice and accommodating for a walk-in. Maxx was amazing and very detail-oriented. Friendly shop that Id highly recommend regardless of what youre looking to do. Theres some genuine care and its a smug-free zone, unlike many other shops. Definitely would visit again the next time Im in Nashville.

My friends and I wanted to get our first tattoos while visiting Nashville on vacation. We decided on One Drop Ink after reading the reviews, and I couldnt be happier with our experience! Ol Skool took great care of us, and I think we laughed longer than any of our tattoos took to do. If youre visiting the area, this is the place to go to get some ink!

I had an amazing experience at One Drop Ink! The staff was professional and T-Bone took his time to make sure I was nothing but exceptionally satisfied with my piece. I will definitely be back soon!

I have several tattoos and just received one by Elishaba. Wow!!! She absolutely blew the others away! She knew exactly what I was looking for. Her drawing of what I had in mind was spot on. She has amazing attention to detail and superb line work. I highly rewcommend her for all your needs!

Dee was great! absolutely loved her. She got every detail I wanted perfect. I love the fact that she asked me questions about what I wanted, and what would be best. answered every single question I had about it. Definitely going back to her.

Ol skool is the absolute best tattoo artist there is hands down. He took a terrible tattoo I had an covered it up to something so beautiful. Great vibes, great person and great finished product.

Very friendly and laid back. The piercer calmed my daughter because she was nervous and then hyped her up to get her excited about the procedure. She loves it, we love it! Thank you!

About 2 years ago I texted Elisheba Israel Mrozik saying I wanted a sun and a moon on my chest to go with the all seeing eye I had in the middle.. She said cool, but then came up with this idea... Sun Goddess and Moon Gooddess, with the Universe I called it “in the feminine” .. she went above and beyond my expectations as she always does... one more session to go the. We can move on to the other pieces I want.. definitely would recommend her and her staff One Drop Ink Tattoo Parlour and Gallery NashvilleI personally love the black features on these women.. it’s a constant reminder to me that the Black Woman is God.

Look no further for a tattoo studio in Nashville. This is the only one that matters. Incredibly affordable, professional, talented and just super awesome all around makes this place several steps above the rest.The staff is extremely patient and welcoming and make you feel like youve been friends with them forever.A++++++++(Elisheba does my work but Ol Skool is an awesome dude too!)

So tattoo artists should be like barbers, you stay with the same one! That is my plan with One Drop Ink. I always walk in to a warm welcome! They understand what I need and how I need it! Love this place!

Getting your first tattoo is nervewracking. You have no idea what to expect or what its going to feel like or if the tattoo will be what you imagined. But then theres Ol Skool Mike at One Drop Ink. After talking to you via email, he starts with an in-person consult to discuss your artwork. He takes time and special care to understand your unique desires so that he can design a masterpiece. After the consult, you come back to see the artwork. He shows you the sketches and you make any adjustments necessary. Then its time to get inked! The best part, though, is his personality. Hes entertaining, funny, and knowledgeable. He keeps you laughing when hes working on the tattoo and tells you stories. By the time you leave, you feel like youre family. Ol Skool just has so much joy and passion for his work. He is truly an artist, and youll never see the same piece twice. He keeps every tattoo as original and memorable as his personality. The staff is kind and patient, the tattoo parlor is clean (especially the bathrooms!), and the artwork that covers the walls is awe-inspiring. If its your first tattoo or your tenth, this is your place. You will not have buyers remorse and youll be showing everyone your tattoo.
