Reviews of One Drop Ink Tattoo Parlour (Tattoo Shop)

Tazha Neely

I drove down from ATL for the black history month special. I got my tattoo done by Ms.Elisheba. She made me feel very comfortable and I love my tattoo. Being at the shop was a great experience overall, her and her husband were very welcoming.

Lesa S

The ratings aren't up for no reason, One Drop Ink was awesome with my piercing. (I can't 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

Chelsea Smith

Thank you Dee for my tattoo. You were very professional and did a great job. I love my tattoo!! Also staff was very kind and helpful!!

Fatima David

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.

Stacia Robinson

Got my tattoo with Ol Skool and had an awesome experience. Great place! Would definitely recommend this shop and artist.

Kevin Hieber

Great atmosphere and people. Enjoyed my experience. Love the tattoo that my wife and I got.

Marco Jimenez

Great place and fantastic people all around best service!

Suki Inthavong

Love the new location, nice and clean. Dee was amazing. Took me 6 years to find a good artist to help me realize this piece we had done and it came out better than I could ever come up with. Already thinking of a second piece

Tanisha Nichols

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!

Angie Miller

Very professional and creative people love the atmosphere and energy. Mike is highly skilled in his craft and I would recommend him to anyone. He is a dope artist!!!!!

Dan Czarnecki

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!

meghan Guilfoil

Dee is amazing. Second tattoo with her, and I’m equally impressed with her fine detail and ability to maintain delicate lines. Great service and love the new space!

Emilie Miles

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 DIDN'T know to ask as a first-timer. I wish I wasn't leaving Nashville so I could work with them again sooner-- (though I may well work it into future trips when I visit!)

Ashley Heath

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!!

Heyana Mims

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.

Joneau Singleton

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!

Bri Dickens

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.

Ella Polk

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!!!

Maame Adomako

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.

Jacob Meyers

omg what to say! dee was fantastic and did such a good job. super fast, really great work. will totally be coming back. thanks y’all for the art, i’ll cherish it forever (duh).

Olivia Wreford

Everyone is incredibly friendly and transparent. I got a tattoo from T Bone and he did amazing work! I would highly recommend this shop and all of the artists are so creative and approachable.

Aoife Gunning

Super friendly and Maxx was great. Love my new tattoo...

Elyssa Edgeton

I've done a piercing and now a tattoo at One Drop, and they are awesome.

Sarawaty Srey

Literally was an amazing experience for my first tattoo, everyone was friendly and the service was great. This is definitely my ink home.

Nile Harris

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 can't 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 what's 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 wasn't there, someone else took care of me, while I was appreciative for the assistance I did feel like my stopping by was not optimal.

Kia Hassell

Ive gotten multiple tattoos here and all are of high quality and have last beautifully through the years. Beautiful art, great atmosphere!

Preston Denney

Literally, the best tattoo experience I ever had.

Keon Maiden

Awesome atmosphere. Atmosphere prices. Awesome team:Ol skool.

Tyrone Pollard

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!

Chakara Vinson

Friendly, professional, quality customer service and they really treat you like family

Angel Marie

I went in with a friend that got her nose pierced and I was thinking about getting an industrial bar. I’m really indecisive and not the one for pan, but my piercer was really cool about it. She answered all my questions and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be. I would definitely go back.

Krystal Loritts

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!

‘Quon Myles

I came in for a nose piercing, Torince was an amazing staff member! His personality and his amazing spirit will always be remembered! Thank you!!!!

Rei X

Had an awesome experience here today! Came in for my first tattoo with T-Bone, he was extremely cool and I'm very happy with the result. I'll definitely be back for more tattoos in the future!

Regina Lard

Maxx was amazing!! She made me feel comfortable and relax! 5 stars!!! Highly recommended Maxx!! Beautiful artwork and design! She literally slayed my piece!!

Courtney Escobedo

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!

Allison Randall

I love this shop! Coming back for another soon!

Lily Alva

Had an amazing time here. My tattoo artist was super friendly and she knew exactly how I wanted my tattoo. Thank you!

cutefoxykitten22

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!

Whittney Polley

Mike was a phenomenal and professional tattoo artists. He really made my vision come to life beyond what I could’ve ever imagined. I HIGHLY recommend this tattoo shop and this artist. You will not be disappointed.

Spencer Hill

Allyson Harrelson

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!!

Mr 2smoove

My experience was easy. They made me feel comfortable and have been helpful when I’ve called back and had questions.

Jason Holmes

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!

Miss Rize Kamishiro

Thanks for the wonderful service! I love my new piercing :)

Edwina Perry

Great experience!!!! He walked me through deep breathing exercises during the piercing to help with my anxiety.

Jeanie A

I got my first tattoo at mtac this year with tbone and it was a great experience!! Everyone was very nice and I will definitely come back to get my next tattoo from here!!!

elisha Laster

i had a great time the artist talked to us long before and after piercing us and he had wonderful ways of killing our anxiety. i felt like this establishment was clean and safe.

marlisa larkin

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!

Sean R

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.

catherine cosby

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. He's an amazing artist and I love the end result. I'll definitely be back for my next one and would recommend One Drop and Ol Skool to anyone!!

Kristin Gillman

Great experience with booking. See was awesome to work with.

Aricka Cano

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!!

Jasmine Williams

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!

Jennifer Johnson

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!

Aoife Whitaker

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!

Jah Logical

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 I'm going to get another tattoo on my right arm this time and she's the only artist for me.

Aleayah Copeland

Never a bad experience when I come here. 4 Down more to come ❤️

TriHyden

I got tattooed by a woman named D. She was great and told me everything I needed to do after my tattoo was done, I'd go to this tattoo parlor again and again for tattoos, this was my first one and it was the best experience I could of asked for. Thank you One Drop Ink.

Osheauna Sydnor

I loved it here guy was great had a good nice purple beard to look up to didnt hurt a bit . ☺☺

Victoria MacLellan

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!

Elizabeth Bronson

I came into one drop for my first tattoo and it was a great experience! My artist was wonderful and made me very comfortable! Would highly recommend.

Romana Schaefer

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 Elisheba's 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.

Carmen Hagewood

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.

Josh Smith

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!

Krystina Hartwell

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!!!

Zack Curtis

Love my tattoo, very good communication before my appointment and during. Overall a great experience!!

Jennifer Burchfield

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!!!

Alyssa Loggins

Quick and painless. Great vibe and greater staff. I’m definitely coming back for more piercings and a custom tattoo. So patient and creative.

Raven Hatcher

Great people,great atmosphere and even better tattoos. I came in had a consultation and set a date with no problems. Come in and check them out for sure!

Brittny Webb

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!

Karli Oxford-Jordan

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 he's doing, and is a great conversationalist to boot. Make sure to be straightforward about questions you have about what's going on or just in general about piercings, otherwise he's 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 isn't in the office on Saturdays unless scheduled for a tattoo. He's 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 I'll 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 I'm in town. I just wish I'd been a customer sooner! Look no further for your piercing needs, and call ahead. Happy body modification to all!!

L. A.

The staff was really nice and welcoming. He explained to me exactly what he was going to do and how the procedure worked. It was over and wonderfully done in 10 minutes. GREAT JOB !!!! I'm going back to get tatted.

Rebecca Valek

This is by far the best place to get a tattoo in Nashville. The people are friendly and can keep you entertained no matter how long the tattoo takes and the work they do is beautiful.

Chad Parker

Great place and great artist. Maxx is an amazing artist

Cj Jones

Very nice. Very professional. Worked out every single detail with me to make sure i was in love with my first tattoo. WIll be my go to for future ink.

Sid Sambrano

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

JGalz

Dee was great. The price was fair and the tat looks excellent!

Adam Ericson

So two weeks later, my art looks great, and just as I wanted. Maxx was fun and entertaining keeping me in the game for the 3 hours we were in the chair. I cannot see the tattoo she covered and that is remarkable. The wife is pleased I have put our rings on my arm inside the Celtic Cross as a lasting memory of our upcoming trip to Ireland for the 25th anniversary. Thanks Maxx and everyone at One Drop.

Kramer Deans

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!

Amy Saathoff

I actually live 6 hours from this shop, but I've come here multiple times because of the amazing artists and very comforting and fun atmosphere.

Alva Thomas

I love this space!!

Andrea Dowell

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!

Jacqueline Washington

The shop was clean and the personnel were friendly. I got my tattoo on a whim while I was visiting. Even if it is a simple design I love it and the environment the shop had.

Jennifer Garner

Best place in Nashville to get a tattoo, the entire staff is talented and friendly. Dee was my artist and she was great. I will be back for more.

Jordan Z.

Staff is super sweet and went out of their way to help me. Good prices and neat little shop !

Shonte G

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...

Daniel Schumacher

Five stars isn't enough. Everyone was friendly. Elisheba is the best. She was easy to work with and asked a lot of questions before starting. She was very fast, patient, and friendly throughout my 6+ hour session.

Dr. Dana Mitchell

Although this was not my first tattoo, I was extreme nervous about getting one along my spine. The shop is clean and everyone is super friendly. I forgot how nervous I was and walked away with a beautiful tattoo.

Dana Frankln

Everyone was so professional and friendly. Everyone should go get a piercing from T-Bone, he definitely made the piercing session very calming and distracting with his many jokes! Thank you all!!!

Ryan Le

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 I'd highly recommend regardless of what you're looking to do. There's some genuine care and it's a smug-free zone, unlike many other shops. Definitely would visit again the next time I'm in Nashville.

Kelly Yoes

I haven't found a nicer group of people yet Maxx did an amazing job will definitely be going back soon

Jasmine Vongsa

I got a tattoo from elisheba and it turned out great. And the building is clean. They really know what they're doing.

Dana Halliburton

Absolutely LOVEEEE this place!!! Very friendly, and professional at the same time.. I would recommend One Drop Ink to anyone.. Thank y'all for my dermal!!! I loveee it!!

Ms Lashay

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!

Christina Thomas

Best tattoo shop and even greater artists!

Patrick Fowler

I am at MTAC and they hooked me up with my favorite symbol from Kingdom hearts!!!

Jennifer Simmons

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.

Heather Bowman

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 shop's 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.

Emma Bedacht

My roommate and I got our bellybuttons pierced here. T-bone knows what he’s doing and has a really cool personality. Will definitely return :)))

Ilaan Ghadelene

...GREAT TEAM...INNOVATIVE...KNOWLEDGEABLE...in my opinion-THE BEST!!!! Went back for 2 more!!!

Shatoya Cantrell

Absolutely awesome experience. T-Bone is an incredible artist.

Katherine Andrulis

T-bone was phenomenal. Changed my forward helix and nose piercings with no trouble. Highly recommend.

Tay Jennings

They did a great job on my piercing. I absolutely love it and it is healing amazingly! Thank y'all so much

Lakeisha Crouch

Had a great experience with T-bone!! Love the design that he came up with for me. Will be back again to get more.

Rachel Salter

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.

Tegan Sorensen

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.

Caitlin Hoffman

Great place! T Bone did an amazing job on my tattoo and was really fun to work with.

Gloria Simmons

I came in to have a scar covered and my experience was amazing from start to finish, couldn't be more ecstatic!!! You can't even tell there was anything there at all, I'll definitely be back!

Kaylin M

It was quick, easy, and they made me feel comfortable. I love my new body modification, im more beautiful than every.

Malika Hall

Awesome group. friendly and very communicated with everyone

Amy Allen

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!

Sarah Elizabeth

Awesome shop!! Dee did an amazing job on my tattoo! Definitely will be coming back!

Library Girl

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.

Autumn Shackelford

I’m part way through a sleeve with Elishaba and it’s beautiful. Even better than I could have imagined. Several people have said that it looks like an oil painting on my arm. Elishaba is an amazing artist and the shop is great!

Charles Clark

This was my first time coming here, and it was dope. The staff is amazing and Dee did a fantastic job.

Lesa Twite

Loved the experience, they fit me in on my schedule and were friendly, efficient, and I love my tattoo!

Amaya Eason

Perfect service every time all my piercings healed with no problem !

Khalildowney

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

Dimi McMaster

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.

Kristi Piwko

Dee is amazing! She captured exactly what I was looking for. I can't 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!

Bryton Gann

Excellent people who do badass work! Maxx is super friendly and killed it with my tattoo!

Myles Wilson

Got a nose piercing and i didn't even feel it go in, it was over before i knew it! They've got a staff full of true professionals in there!

Jennifer Jenkins

The ppl were great n i love my tat

Alandria Aldridge

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 I'm 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 I'm 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 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

I had a wonderful experience at One Drop Ink. I received a double belly button piercing by a wonderful piercer. She talked to me the entire time to keep me calm. The piercing was taken directly out of a package and used for me. The location is clean, beautiful, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. The employees are helpful, personable, and eager to answer questions.

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.

Tat came out great, however, shop minimum was $80 not $60 which is stated on the website.

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 :)

Ashley Allums

I went to One Drop for my first tattoo. My artist was @olskoolmike (Instagram) and this was a completely great 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*

Allison Otto

Maxx was awesome and very talented! Fun environment, definitely will go back if I ever want another tattoo!

Mia McIntyre

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 wouldn't hurt and YOU delivered. Oh and can't forget you changing the top to my dermal as well.

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 artist's 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 don't have anything on One Drop... for skills, environment and personality. Thanks, Dee!

Dee did a fantastic job. She gave a feesh new look to my old tattoo, making it look awesome. I love the work she did for me and would recommend her to everyone.

Laura Shaffer

Staff is always nice and knowledgeable. Ol Skool is insanely talented and really fun to talk to. I recommend him to everyone I talk to that is considering getting a tattoo.

Miss Ernie

I'm always pleased with the work that Elisheba does for me. I get compliments all the time for her work. I recommend her to everyone who asks. Customer service is on point.

Kelly Jacques

My sister and I got our first tattoos here with Dee, she's very talented and did a great shop, while giving us a very fair price! The rest of the shop staff was very friendly too.

Server Guy

Seems very engaging via email, my coworker and I decided to go in today and the shop still wasn’t open around 1315ish we left. We arrived in the lot around 1140. Maybe we were out of the loop but the phone was going directly to voicemail.

Best Place For Quality By Far.

Viviana Luison

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

Dee was WONDERFUL. For my first Tattoo experience, she answered all of my questions with grace and patience. She was calm and my tattoo came out beautiful! Thank you Dee!

Tbone tattooed myself and my husband and did an incredible job! We love our tattoos!

Bonny Lopez

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. I'm glad I picked them. 5 stars for me

Emily Minarik

This is the best place. T-Bone is super chill. He definitely made me feel comfy. I will come back once I figure out what I want next!!

Everyone is super nice. The place is clean. My daughter couldn't get her earring back in so I took her back to One Drop Ink. The hole had actually closed up. They re-pierced it for nothing!!

Viet Nguyen

Maxx is amazing. Alway know exactly what I want when I ask for her to come with a design for my crazy ideas
