    Chipper is a total pro. He'd done a lot of preparation before my appointment but was also open to my feedback and ideas. It was a truly collaborative and fun process to come up with the final design. Then he got to work, ensuring a comfortable environment. I was amazed at how fast yet accurate he was, and how beautifully the tattoo came out! I can't recommend Chip highly enough!

    I have been going to Chip for 10 years, and I cannot say enough good things about him. His talent, his professionalism, his ability to relate and talk on a personal level. I enjoy spending time in his shop because he makes it a comfortable environment. Especially for someone with body image issues such as myself. I never have to worry about symmetry or line work. It's perfect every time, even when I give him free reign to do whatever he would like. Look forward to getting many more tattoos with Chip in the future.

    On a journey to the ultimate tattoo sleeve, Chipper has been a true navigator. With he organic concierge's service, he has made my continued experience one to share. With tattoos, you leverage the entire experience (pain to be included). Chipper picked up where others have left off. Taking my geometric visions and creating/recreating pieces that are made for me! Being said, make the effort to seek him out! jTm

    Seven years ago I got a giant black tree the size of my inner forearm to cover up a smaller tattoo on my wrist. For seven years I've been looking for an artist who would do something interesting with this tattoo. I was traveling to Nashville and decided to check out some artists in the area. I started following Chipper on IG and loved his style and creativity, so I reached out to him. I was able to get an afternoon with him and I LOVED his ideas for finishing my arm. The shop is chill and private which is a major plus in my opinion. Not only did Chipper play music I wanted to hear, but my husband and a friend were able to sit in on the session, and I didn't have to deal with a big room of many artists and clients. I'm so excited to finally have something done that I love, and if/when I get more work I'll be making the trip to Nashville to work with Chipper again!

    I had an amazing experience here! Chipper was very professional and did his best to make the experience as good as possible. Not only did I enjoy getting tattooed here but the art itself turned out amazing! I would not be happier! If you're looking for a beautiful piece of work I definitely recommend Chipper!

    I have been to many tattoo artists in my life but honestly I have to say Chipper is one of the all time greats. From the energy he puts off in studio to the work that is done, it's a great experience from start to finish. To go back a few steps and talk about the total experience, I am from LA and reached out to Chip via email. His response was quick and had a few small details he needed from me but nothing insane or overly complicated. When I gave him the details of what I was looking to get he seemed excited and gave me his avails during the days I was in town, unlike many LA based artists I had consulted with. Leading up to the appointment, a few days out of the tattoo Chip followed up to make sure he had all the details and references needed as well as ask if there were any other details outside the previous conversations he should know about. The day of I got an email from him asking if I wanted to come in early but no pressure if I couldn't make it. I showed up about 20 minutes early and he was there and ready to work, was super professional and still seemed excited to work on the piece. Chip works fast, when I talked to him about his speed he said you are paying for the piece not for the time and I was happy to hear that. Overall if you like a tattoo artist who is super talented and client focused you will want to work with Chip. I can't recommend him enough and am already planning future trips to Nashville just to work with him again. Thanks Chip!!!

    Let me just start with saying how engaging Chipper's personality is. I walked in and immediately felt like I was at home hanging with a friend I have known for years. The tattooing process was easy as well. I walked out with minimal pain and a masterful work of art on my body! Chipper answers any questions you might have about healing or activities and won't leave you hanging to figure out the healing process on your own. Whether you're seasoned with tattoos or new to the whole experience I highly recommend a Chipper piece.

    A+ Chipper is SO talented. I won't go anywhere else for my tattoos. I have had two tattoos done by him and I have my third one scheduled in a little less than a month. He is professional, his shop is clean, and he follows all COVID guidelines. I highly recommend him!

    On the four month anniversary of losing my father, Chip gave me my first tattoo. I found him through researching the top shops and artists in Nashville and I am SO grateful! I creeped his Instagram page for days and emailed to schedule an appointment. Although he was booked for a while, I was able to score an early spot thanks to a cancellation. He was awesome communicating with me, not too exhaustive with questions and requesting photographs but made sure he understood and respected my ideas. The shop is full of cool stuff to look at and nice people with colorful bodies. Chipper's nook was warm and also gave privacy but there was still enough hustle and bustle to keep ya distracted. I can't believe how much ink he was able to get into my skin in a single sitting and the end result is a masterpiece. Chip followed up to make sure all was well and, like I told him, my arm is healing well. I could not have asked for a better experience. I hope I can book again. Chipper Harbin is the best.

    Visiting Nashville for my 30th birthday and just decided on a whim to get a tattoo for the…read morememories. I googled "best thin line tattoo parlors in Nashville" and this one came up first. As stated on their website Danelle is the artist doing walk ins so we just stopped in to see if she was available. She happened to be working on someone else but was available in an hour so we left and came back a little later. She was great! So nice and very informative. I have another tattoo so I was familiar with the process but she provided 2 difference sizes as well as some background info about what she thought would look best as it was a thin line tattoo and I wanted to see all the details. I'm super happy with my end result and would totally go back. The shop was also very very clean and the girls at the front desk were super nice as well! They seemed really happy that I mentioned I was from out of town as they usually just get locals but that also did make me feel more confirmed with my choice in knowing they seemed to have lots of reoccurring local customers. Overall great experience!

Looked up the IG page and found an artist, and was able to walk in on a Tuesday afternoon. Danielle did our tattoos and I love it! The shop is VERY clean, everyone was very personable and the work here is great! The parking is in the back of the building and you have to go through a side door to get upstairs. That was the I Lu confusing part of the whole thing. We love our tattoos and would def recommend this place!

    This is a review for the RIVERSIDE DR location…read more Let me start by saying that the artists at this location are phenomenal. That's not the reasoning for the one star review. The person who is supposedly over booking sessions has a bad attitude problem. And that turned me away immediately. I was trying to speak on the phone with an artist because I had questions about a tattoo that I was going to be getting which would cost me over $1200. But the only person I could talk to was Andrew because I guess he handles booking. He kept bringing up the fact that I had to pay a 100 deposit which is non refundable under any circumstances. But when I gave him my card twice he kept saying it wouldn't go through. So I said I'll try and come up there another day to pay the deposit in person. When I called today to try and speak with Justin, he told me he wasn't there and when I tried to ask Andrew the questions I had for Justin before I gave him any of my money that I can't get refunded, he stated " look man there's nothin I can discuss over the phone and Justin won't take your seriously anyway without a deposit" so when I said "well I guess I'll just hold o-"he immediately said "ok!" and hung up the phone in my face. This tells me that your not allowed to inquire about a tattoo before you pay a deposit. And not to mention how short he was with me. So I called back to let him know that you don't just hang up on customers and I will not be returning for a second tattoo. After I hung up he proceeded to call my phone multiple times and left a voicemail saying I need to learn how shops work. I know how shops work I have plenty of tattoos lol. He was just completely unprofessional and I've never experienced this at any of the other shops I've been to. $100 deposit for a tattoo I was paying 1200-1400 for. I'm very big on respect so this place has definitely lost at least one customer.
