East Tattoo Collective

I just recently got my first tattoo from Brandon at East Tattoo Collective. I was definitely pretty nervous but that soon went away once I met him. From helping me develop my original concept to completing the tattoo itself, Brandon made me feel like I was in such good hands and I was able to fully trust him every step of the way. He is so professional and everything he did put my mind at ease and made the whole process one to remember. His studio is super clean and everyone I met that worked there was very so sweet. I cannot recommend the East Tattoo Collective enough. Each of their artists seem to bring something different and special to the table. I am in love with my new tattoo and will definitely be going back to see Brandon again in the future. Thank you!!🙏🏼

Had a great experience at East Tattoo Collective! Russ was awesome! He listened, did an incredible job and was a joy to be around. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Chip!! I sent him my inspiration photos for the BTS tattoo I wanted and he delivered. His shop was clean and comfortable. He played BTS music and chatted with me as he started tattooing me. It took 45 minutes! The price was great!! He really went above and beyond!! I highly recommend him!! He made the tattoo so vibrant and beautiful. I have gotten a lot of compliments on it!! You also get four hours of free validated parking!! 🩷 Thank you so much, Chip, for the experience!!

This is the place I am both stoked and overjoyed to say I get my tattoos from. I have already gotten a sleeve from Chip a few years back. The process of working with him to deliver a creative, expressive, and visually striking - and frankly stunning - piece was straightforward and fun. His communication beforehand and the time on the table are always very easygoing and when he gets the opportunity to do detailed work he has a fantastic eye for making things really pop. I am the type of person to look for a creative style, give some concepts and ideas of a story I want told using this art form. Each piece added is something important to me. Chip understands geometry- shapes and how to use them to complement and contrast each other, and anatomy in that image location and position on the human body is always well chosen. He also has an amazing talent for blending pieces into one another. The watercolor style he uses is so wonderful blended in moments your eye will pass from one image to the next. My one regret is that I cant just pull my arm off to get a great look at it from the angle all of you get to see this work. I am working on a new pieces for another sleeve on my right arm - all about Wicked. I supplied the imagery I wanted from the films and references and homage to the original stage version. I then got to the shop and we started identifying locations and positions together. I chose the images cuz of their importance to the story and i give Chip, with his wealth of experience, full reign to make the art from there. If you want an expressive, exciting, and excellently crafted piece that you will love and catch compliments for this is the place you want to be. And I mean it when I say I get compliments all the time. I go to all sorts of places across the states for work, and it never fails that on the job I am approached and asked about the piece and for a closer look. You want this I promise guys. I’m one visit into what is predicted to be a 2.5 day project when all said and done. I am absolutely loving the work so far!!

What a fantastic experience! Great clean space! I can't say enough about Chipper & Bella. If I could give more then 5 stars I would. A group of us wanted to get a tattoo to mark our time in Nashville. I sent an email and got a quick response...made an appointment. We were able to work through ideas with the artists on the spot. Such an intimate setting, nothing like the big box shops on Broadway. This wasn't just a tattoo apointment...it was an experience. Professional, clean, creative and customer focused. It was truly a collaborative between us and the artists. We are all so happy with result. Thanks for a great hang and all the stories...the memories will last as long as the tattoos!!
