Electric Hand Tattoo

Love the crew and Dan is ‘my guy’. I’m very picky about who I trust but I’ve been going to him for years. He’s done three so far and now I’m onto my fourth from him. I love everything he does.

Got some real talent up in this joint!
Dan and Jason are spectacular but everyone here is stellar in their artistry. No attitude like in most shops.
If you’re looking for fantastic ink, don’t bother looking elsewhere. This is the spot!

Superlative work at reasonable prices! My experience is limited to Tu Le and Tai Orten, but both are top-​notch artists. I had a particular design in mind, but lack the artistic ability to put it to paper. I went to Tai and described what I wanted, and she drew out and applied exactly what I wanted. My daughter has gotten several tattoos from Tu, and she has been ecstatic over every one. Appointments not required, but strongly preferred.

Great place. Great vibe. Thu took care of me, but everyone seemed very friendly. Not a trace of the indifference you’ll often find in tattoo shops (including ones on Gallatin).
Thu was friendly, informative and honest. Great work. Great experience. I’ll be back for sure.

Came here for a martial arts related tattoo. My artist was Thu but everyone I spoke with was super cool and professional.
Love the work and it’s something I’ll be adding too as time goes by so if was important to find an awesome place to start on the right foot.
Couldn’t be happier, go to this place now!!!

I love this shop! I’ve worked with Jason and he is such a talented and professional artist. We just wrapped up a custom cover and he wasn’t intimidated by my request. He is so versatile and created a really beautiful piece for me. He’s worked on other things for me, and although they’re a little more ‘stock’ they’re beautiful, quality tattoos. I would pay a premium, but the price is really quite reasonable for something that’ll be on your body forever!
Easy going, no pretense… just great tattooing.

Love, love, love this tattoo shop.
So far I’ve had work done by Jason, but all the artists have strong portfolios. The shop is comfortable, clean, and inviting. Pricing is reasonable for the area and the quality of work is outstanding, Parking can be a little crowded, but it’s East Nashville. And no cooler-​than-​thou vibe either — even though it’s East Nashville.

I’m a following customer of Jason’s BUT I’ve seen plenty of other stuff done by the other dudes and there’s not a one that I would steer anyone away from.
Just like any place it is easier to go into a tattoo parlor with idea in hand because a lot of times the artists don’t know you and can’t really read your mind when you just kind of halfway explain what you want BUT just like any a**hole customer I do this all the time (come in with barely an idea) and they manage to get my idea out on a piece of paper.
Anyways, Every single artist in the WORLD has their own style and I think this place has very evenly dispersed talent in certain areas…
One is better at portraits than one is at comic book style like one is best at sailer jerry type crap. Just look at their portfolios they’ve got set up and even just ask one of them who would be the best at something in particular… they are all pretty good friends and aren’t in the ‘every man for himself’ type of work environment so they’ll truthfully steer you to who you need to see.
And about pricing. Remember. You’re getting something thats going to be there FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE…
and even a transmission that costs $ 3000 to fix doesn’t last that long so quit being so cheap!

Just North of the southern most Kroger on Gallatin Road, you will find (tucked away) this hot new tattoo parlor. Don’t let the outside fool you into thinking its a dive or that the area is unsafe. This could prevent you from entering East Nashville’s rocking new shop.
All the guys that work here have their own style. If you are not sure who to see, go in, and take your time chatting with the guys and checking out their work.
The interior is cozy and inviting. Not a bad place to show up early or hang late, after your piece. Prices are negotiable but remember you pay for quality. If you compare the prices here to other shops in the area, you will definitely save about half.
I have been here once since they opened and look forward to going back.
