My mom used to always sign our holiday/birthday cards with this stick-figure lady.

The owner Pagan, met with us after he finished up his last appointment of the day. He was great! He was patient and real with us about style placement and took the time to give his full attention. He made us feel comfortable and excited about our endeavor. After about 5 minutes we decided we wanted him to do the work. After trying to figure out the best time for us to come back, he said "let's just do it now ", and so we did! Now keep in mind they were about to close for the day, and he didn't rush us or make us feel like we were imposing. This was a great experience for us. He was very personable and it was the most fun we've ever had a tattoo shop. My son was a little nervous about it because it was his first time, but Pagan made him feel at ease and even was cutting up with him, and now I think our son is hooked after his experience. Pagan and I discussed other tattoos for myself in the near future, so we will definitely be back. It's people like him that make these types of experiences enjoyable and something to look forward to.

I was freaking out, nervous as could be for her... Yes, it was just a piercing, but it was major to us folks who just have basic ones... Anyway, Jade (whom I highly recommend) calmed our nerves... She was very professional, patient, understanding, and eager to please... She even took photos of our experience, per our request... She went over aftercare instructions and provided us with a copy... Jade also supplied us with her personal cell on her business card and encouraged us to call, if we have any future questions or concerns. Oh, I also need to add that I called the day before to inquire about piercings at tattoo establishment vs Claire's, etc... The owner of Valhalla Tattoo, Pagan, answered the phone and explained things in detail... Based on our conversation, I decided this would be our place of choice.

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!

I can't really speak on the tattoos, but I've been getting pierced here for 20 years!…read more Everyone here is very knowledgeable and customer-focused. The space is very clean, and the jewelry is always top quality, and a decent price point. Icon is the shop you go to when you want to be pierced correctly from the start with quality jewelry. Icon has better hygiene standards than most doctors' offices I've been to. What rounds out what I like most about Icon is their balance between customer service friendliness and not suffering foolishness. Especially, now that I'm older, I genuinely like that they expect adults to act like adults and follow the rules that they've set out. My only issue with this business has always been the parking. The parking is kind of awful, but then again that's downtown Nashville for you.

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.

One of them was pierced crooked and I was experiencing pain after a week so I called and came in and they confirmed and pulled it. I got conflicting information between the front desk and piercers. The front desk said I needed to wait 4 weeks to get it re-pierced. When I showed up with the pain after the fucked up piercing, Bonnie, who I am assuming is the most senior piercer, told me I could come back in to re-do it anywhere from 2-4 weeks, alluding to the idea that once it is "basically healed" it could be re-done. Very confusing. Nevertheless, I found this out when I came in early by 2.5 weeks. I was then called 4 weeks later to confirm the re-pierce and told them I pulled the other piercing and no longer feel comfortable having the other one be redone by them. I would rather just redeem it for in-store credit. They then told me they would call me back. They called me back and told me they could either re-pierce it or give me nothing, and that after that they would no longer like to do business with me ever again and that I am not welcome in their store (I was never at any point rude or disgruntled despite having the right to be pissed that they fucked up the piercing and I've been waiting a month for the services I paid almost $250 to be corrected). Attached is my receipt.
