Tattoos
Due to the complex nature of tattooing, we are unable to provide quotes via phone or email. You may stop by any time for a consultation and personal quote during our regular business hours. Tues-Sat 1pm-6pm. Our standard rate is $120/hr. Shop minimum for tattoos is $50. All appointments require a $50 non-refundable deposit, made in person at the shop, in the form of cash or credit card. This $50 will hold your appointment spot and cover your drawing fees. The $50 will come off of the price of the tattoo when you get it done. If you need to reschedule, please do so as soon as possible. If you don't show up or are more than 15 minutes late and we have to reschedule, you have to put down another $50. You must be 18 to get tattooed in the state of Tennessee. Vivid Tattoo will not tattoo any minor for any reason, ever! So don’t ask.

We will perform ear lobe piercing on minors age 8 and up. We will not perform any other piercings on anyone under 18, even with parent’s permission…so again, don’t ask.
Parents must be in the shop with the minor at all times.
We have release forms that the parent must fill out. We will make a copy of the parent’s driver’s license on the back of the release form, if the parent does not have a driver’s license or state issued ID card, we will not pierce the minor. The Health Department also requires that we copy a birth certificate or state issued ID for the minor. If the last names of the parent/guardian and minor are different, then a proof of guardianship will be required.
