This place was THE BEST piercing shop I’ve gone to. And ive gone to many. My piercer Sunny was the kindest, funniest, and most professional piercer I’ve had. Clean and friendly, best place in town! Amazing prices and good quality pieces of jewelry!

Friendly. Great people. Shelly Turner was my artist. Not only is she an amazing talent, but is one of the better people Ive met and known in my lifetime. She will create a masterpiece that will adorn your body and an experience that rivals sacred and life changing. She worked extra hours beyond her scheduled day to accommodate my availability. Im fortunate to have randomly chosen Standard Ink and will frequent this shop for all future tattoos.

This is the only place I will get pierced. I’ve had many wonderful experiences here. The staff are unbelievably welcoming and kind. I enjoyed my time here so much I even returned with my pattens. The new look of the shop is stunning. Wish I could give this team 10 stars.

Its not so much as I disliked the place. Its more of a situation where I was being pushed towards a person who did GREAT black ink work,but shoddy color work....for a color tattoo OR wait several weeks till an appointment comes available. I get that since its on Frazier, its going to be trendy. However 2 of the portfolios shown to me were novices and as a person who is not under 40, there would be no way I could laugh off a poorly done tattoo and call it a learning lesson. I am thankful for the time they took to speak with me and if I was of a mind to wait a few weeks for an appt I might have been fine. But I was not going to be palmed off on a novice artist. I will leave that to the kids

Piercing hours are 7:30pm to midnight. The price is $35 per person, $10 for the aftercare spray if you want. My sisters and I got our helix pierced there. Amber, the owner, is AWESOME(even the guy in front)! We were so talkative and they were just so friendly. Would go back and get piercing and maybe a tattoo.

I got a helix piercing today for my 18th birthday. I was slightly nervous about it because needles and I don’t get along very well! Sunny was the person who did the piercing for me. Wow was I impressed! The place was extremely friendly and accommodating. Was in and out of there within 20 minutes! Sunny made me at ease and was super comforting about the whole thing! She did an amazing job and walked me through the process before she did a single thing. I wasn’t even that nervous as much as I expected to be! The placing is perfect and I couldn’t be more happier with my experience. They also give free jewelry changes if you’re like me and a little scared to change a new piercing for the first time after healing! I will definitely go back!!

Loved every second of my experience! They made it so easy to schedule an appointment and made me feel really comfortable-- this was my first professional piercing so I was a bit nervous. I had Sunny and she was absolutely incredible, so sweet and understanding! (For reference I got a second lobe piercing on both sides and a double helix on my left)

Got my first tattoo here from Duffy McCormack and he did a wonderful job. He was very respectful and I really like how it turned out. Definitely worth the money. This is a something permanent; be willing to hash out the money for a fantastic product.

It was my very first face piercing and I got snake bites. The person who did my piercing I dont quite remember there name did really well soothing my nerves because I have anxiety and was kind of stressed. It went really well and there wasnt much pain at all. No bleeding and Ive experienced very little swelling. It honestly hasnt hurt very much beyond when they put in the needle. If I decide to get another piercing or a tattoo I will definitely go here

I love this place.. i dont go any where else for tattoos or piercings... they are very knowledgeable.

Great place for new ink or piercing. Ive been a customer over 20 years and now I get to share experiences w my daughter.

Sarah is an amazing artist, and just fun to chill with while getting ink therapy

Worked with Duffy McCormack! He was very professional and fun to work with! He does amazing work! 12/10 would recommend. Their desk staff rocks too!

Clean shop. Good vibes. Amber did an awesome job

Had a great experience with Amber getting out daiths pierced! And super helpful always.

My go to place for all things piercing - the staff is always so kind and friendly and the work they do is phenomenal! One of my favorite shops to visit for sure! Also I really appreciate the amount of attention and time they dedicate to making sure every customer leaves completely satisfied no matter how big or small the project!

This place was amazing. They were all very friendly, very personable and Duffy is a great artist. He did my mothers first tattoo (she was very wiggly but he never got upset with her) plus he did mine as well. I will definitely be going back for future work and telling all friends about them.

I visited as a tattoo walk-in without an appointment and was so impressed with this place! Everyone was great and Duffy did a fantastic job on the piece I got. He was professional, but also made me feel at ease and comfortable. He did such clean lines and I cant believe how quick the whole visit was.If youre in Chattanooga and looking to get a new piece or a touch-up, I would definitely recommend Standard Ink!

Great place! Will definitely go back!!! Everyone is so sweet!

Havent been here but my old buddy Duffy is the owner i think. Hes an awesome guy, we grew up together and were roommates in Florida many moons ago. When I ever make it back home I will have to say hello. Cant promise I will get a tattoo, as I dont have any, but Ive seen Duffys artwork when he was younger and he is amazing!!PS.. hope to move home one day. Sick of Florida

I wanted to give them more stars because my wife gets all her work done here but they tried to rip me off. Asked for an American traditional rose on the back of my hand (about the size of a baseball) and they wanted $350 for a mediocre tattoo. I understand that they have pride in their work but thats outrageous, I went to another parlor and got the what I wanted for $120. 15 different colors and solid line work for less than half of what they wanted, please do some shopping around before you overpay here

Absolutely wonderful experience.Took my 14 year old to get ear piercings.Amber was super patient and encouraging while giving the kiddo complete control of the situation. Just a great experience!

The facility was clean and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. My friend and I came in for piercings and both left very happy. I most definitely will be using them again for my future piercings and tattoos.

I got a nose stud, they told me everything I could possibly need to know. Staff is very friendly and comforting(if nervous). My piercing looks amazing, and I typically didnt have any problems here. In all I had a great experience and will be coming back for my next piercing.

I came in as a walk-in and luckily Duffy D. was able to do my first tattoo in between appointments (a beautiful tulip he drew up for me on the spot)! He was very patient with me while I was figuring out placement. Everyone here is extremely friendly and helpful and made my experience really comfortable. Duffy is awesome, I couldn’t have asked for a better artist and I can’t wait to book him for my second tattoo! Thanks, Standard Ink, y’all are the best

Perfect artists in a clean shop!!! What more do you need?Sarah made me feel completely comfortable during my tattoo session! I will be back. SOON.

Duffy Dillard is an amazing artist. Weve been designing my sleeve session for almost 8 months now and its turning out better than I could have expected.

Awesome service, friendly staff, clean facility and just an all around great Tattoo and piercing shop. Seriously... Im not easily impressed!

Professional staff, took the time to assure we got what we were wanting, drawed it various ways as to allow for us to decide what we thought was the best pick with input from the artist as to how he thought it would be as a final product,very detail oriented.

Ive been in a couple of time recently, the first they helped me out in some jewelry that I couldnt get closed and offered me some advise on how to help my ear heal. The next time was when my friend wanted to get a new piercing and the staff there confirmed to me how nice and patient they are. They have a wealth of knowledge and are great at what they do!

Had a great experience with Sarah for my first time there. All the staff was very friendly and it was a very comfortable place. Sarah was great at answering all my questions and working together through the whole process. Will definitely be back for more ink

Gotten a couple of good tattoos from one of their artist but overall Ive had more issues there than anything else. Had an appointment scheduled and came in to find out that they scheduled it wrong and I would have to come back a different day. Now on their Friday the 13th special had several issues: the second sheet of tattoos wasnt post till an hour and a half after the event started, we went in at 7:15pm and were told we could not get one because they had cut it off (the event said it went til 10pm), and they didnt post about being done or make it known on any of their posts about the event. Not planning on going back.

Dick was the team member who did my piercing. He was very nice and made me feel comfortable. Everything was clean and organized. I definitely felt like I was at the right place.I would recommend this place to anyone.

Standard Ink and Ben were great as always

Amber did my nose piercing and made the experience as comfortable and pleasant as it could be! She did a fantastic job, I would definitely come back here for any other piercings in the future !

Just got a coverup tattoo done by Ben and he did an amazing job!! He came with good ideas and was able to get creative and find a suitable tattoo. He worked diligently and wasted no time, he was very professional and welcoming. I have my confidence back and ready to show off my new tattoo. I absolutely love standard ink, everyone is friendly and helpful Ive gitten four piercings here and each experience was great. Im definetly coming back!!

Everyone is more than happy to accommodate, explain, offer suggestions, and of course deliver top notch piercing and tattoo work!

Nice staff, very friendly, great work, and quick

Cant wait for this place to reopen to get some art work finished. Great artist!

Duffy made me feel very secure and actually has me anticipating a cover up I wasnt even sure was possible. I feel good that Im going to get original art and be dealing with a mature professional for work that I was scared to trust to anyone. Will update my review in a few months when its all done! :)

Friendly helpful staff

Nice shop and very clean. The ladies at the desk were very sweet and the piercer was amazing!! Would recommend and would come back!!!

I got a piercing, and she made me feel very comfortable. Nice clean place.

My wife got a small tattoo that consisted of one letter on her wrist. It took 10 minutes. She was charged $80. I feel she was taken advantaged of. I had planned on getting some work done myself there but after realizing the artist Duffy had charged her $80 for a letter less than 2 inches in height I refuse to go there. Make sure you don’t make the same mistake she did ...

Great group of people... amazing artists and overall it is a great atmosphere.

They couldn’t come up with a cover up idea and really didn’t try. Referred me to a guy who once worked there who also couldn’t do it. Thank God for Mainline Ink.

This place seems nice, but when I went inside to ask some questions both the girl at the desk and the tattoo artist seemed inconvenienced by my presence. I ended up getting a tattoo elsewhere from someone a little more personable. However my experience, his artwork was pretty fantastic, so if you dont mind being treated poorly, go check it out.

Very professional and clean shop- I was tattooed by an apprentice, but he had a lot of skill, and was also confident enough in his own abilities to say what he was and was not able to do. Not my first tattoo, but my first shop tattoo- and I will deffinitely go back!

Professional staff and very clean inside!

Shout out Todd and Sunny SunshineThanks for your patience with a young girl like me (64)getting my nose piercing.Todd blushed while I flirted with him and answered all my weirdo questions,And Sunny pierced me like a champ even though I was scared and she had to keep reminding me to breathe.I LOVE IT!! Look forward to seeing you both for my jewelry change.

Knowledgeable and surprisingly gentle

Got my 1st tattoo here while on honeymoon. Artist ( i think his name was Ben) was awesome, did awesome work.

I forget her name (short blonde hair) but she was a fantastic conversationalist with me and my wife.

Very skilled and helpful piercer makes the process a breezeWay easier than getting an IV

My go to for ink and holes: )

Best place to get a tattoo!! I had my tattoo done by Duffy. He does some great work. Duffy has done all of my tattoos wouldnt have anyone else to do them. I trust Duffy. I never had a problem with any of my tattoos. Some of my tattoos are 12years old and they still look great, no fading at all.Thanks for your great work Duffy your the best in Chattanooga area. The wait to get you is worth it.Brent Westen

Very friendly staff! Dick was very nice and helpful with telling me what to do with my piercing! Definitely going back.

I visited Dacia and got my first cat-too (out of hopefully many more). Very good price for the work, and shes a new artist there. She drew this and I chose it from a selection of small $35 options. Free touch ups. Highly recommend!

Wonderful people. So friendly. The place is hip and very trendy. Great service and interaction with the artists. Love em!

Been coming to this fantastic studio since 2000. Always professional and friendly.

Great place and good people that do awesome work.

Theyre beyond sweet every single one who works in this shop.

Everything about the place was pretty damn good. People were friendly.. I know they do good work, very clean and exceptionally concerned about safety Etc. The most annoying thing was I got an estimate for 45 minute wait to have a six year olds ears done and it was well over an hour and a half. That aside Amber was amazing, super patient, incredibly friendly and I could not have hoped for a better experience other than a little more accuracy on the ETA. They have a phenomenal reputation for a reason and if youre going to get a tattoo in Chattanooga I wouldnt hesitate to get it done here

I got my first tattoo at this shop with Sarah. She did an absolutely amazing job. She was very patient with me deciding on the placement. I am very happy with the way it turned out and will definitely be back!

Great place if you need a piercing done. First experience as a child was at Claire’s and it was horrible. I’ve been terrified to try again until my friend wanted hers done too. So glad we went here. Dick was awesome, did a great job, and I love the results! Already want another one done!

I love these guys all them are easy going and great to get along with. Duffy done my Oogie Boogie on my foot and the compass on my husbands arm and both look amazing

Just meet the staff and you will know you are in the right place. The establishment is clean and kept up well. They have been open as long as they have for a reason. I have had all of my tattoos and piercings done there and will continue to do so. Ty Standard

Got a nose piercing and love it. The guy was nice, sanitary and quick. Will def be back for my next piercing and tat

Amber was amazing. I didn’t feel rushed at all. She let me ask all the questions I wanted and made sure I felt comfortable through the whole process of the piercing. Everyone there was very nice. Very happy with my experience.

We had to wait for a little while to get an upper lip piercing done, but there was good music and pleasant people to talk to while we waited. The staff was clean, well-groomed and polite. The shop itself is in an awkward place to visit but there is parking out back. The inside is very clean and businesslike with very knowledgeable staff which is very happy to educate you about what they do, what they wont do and how to take care of your purchase.

Was treated with great respect and heard clearly about my ideas for my tattoo Artist Eunice did my tattoo & she is very talented and makes you feel totally @ ease Im in love with my tattoo Its my husbands hand and my moms artwork and thanks to Eunice I can see them always Id recommend this company and of course personally I recommend Eunice to do your work-- youll leave happy&Satisfied

Great place, chill people, love my new arm art!

Took my 9 year old to have her ears professionally pierced. Great experience and a very clean facility.

Very friendly staff with great customer service. I would definitely recommend to others!

Awesome shop, with amazing artists. Everyone is super friendly and the work is clean and holds up well. Touch ups are free within the first 6 months after receiving your work. Ask for Jen.

Ive been going to the Standard Ink for ik 15 years But last night the girls that were there showed Me a different type of love...ty ladies

Great place. Shelly was awesome. Very nice and talented. Our family gets a vacation tattoo every year. She was very accommodating. Prices were very reasonable.

The piercing chic was amazing with my daughter, we were all nervous and she made Marissa comfortable.

I LOVED THIS TATTOO/PIERCING PARLOR!! BEST, KINDEST, KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF IVE EVER SEEN!!

Very professional and friendly. They always do a great job whether it be a tattoo or piercing.

Such a nice place, great people good atomspere just got my ear peirced and loving it. The woman who did my piercing was so amazing she walked me through gave her honest opinion and everything. Must go back for another piercing for sure.

Awesome place, creative, skilled, and friendly artists. Took my daughter for her first tat. They were above and beyond welcoming and comforting. Clean facility and they look great. Sets a high standard. My 6th tat and Im impressed

Pizza Bros recently decided to get a slice of pizza tattooed to commemorate the opening of our flagship restaurant on Cherokee blvd our artist was amazing very professional and a great artist

They tried to charge me 100 dollars for a ring tattoo on one finger

I always love how great the service and personalities are here!

Excellent people. Very professional. Duffy did my tattoo (half sleeve) and he sat down and made changes before we started took his time to make it look right in my mind. Didnt rush on placement and made sure it looked perfect on my arm before we started. While receiving the tattoo, he was extremely thorough and very easy to talk to. Would Give more stars if available.

Great service, very clean, nice people! I recommend!

Awesome staff and very kind people and can do off the Chain Tattoos for a great price Thanks Standard Ink...

Amber was great with my 7 year old daughter. Kept her calm and did an awesome job.

Great service. Great people.

Great experience at our consultation and looking forward to getting the tattoo complete.

This place is amazing. Everyone her is so sweet and so talented. If you go, make sure to ask for Shelly. She is an amazing artist and so talented.

Got my lip pierced there, and had a tattoo done from Duffy Dillard on my forearm. Will continue to receive business from me

The customer service was beyond excellent informative,professional,and just enough personal from the front counter to the end of our time there and we will be back for sure!!

Wonderful experience! Was nervous about getting my helix pierced, but they were extremely friendly and helped calm my nerves. Would definitely recommend!

I had a great experience at Standard Ink today. The staff were all friendly and Shelly worked us in at the last minute. She really did some great detailed work - exactly what I had in mind. Ill definitely be back!

This is the only place Ill go for tattoos. I have brought many other clients in because i highly recommend Duffy. Everyone in the shop is amazing to work with. I always have tons of laughs with all the staff.

I had an amazing experience! Amber and Richard are fantastic employees and made me feel right at home! Amber did an amazing job on my piercings and I will definitely go back there in the future!

My belly button piercing is crooked and sticking out so far. Awful

Septum piercing with Brian - Amazing experience. When I walked into the building, I immediately noticed how clean it was (the bathroom was no exception) and the staff at the front desk were professional and helpful. I watched a guy before me get his septum pierced as well, and when he came outside, he had nothing but positive things to say about one of the resident piercers, Brian. His feedback immediately alleviated my fears of getting my first facial piercing. When I walked into the piercing room, Brian had me sit on the chair where he cleaned my nose and marked the spot. Then he had me lie down. The piercing was over in a split second. It was perfectly symmetrical, I had no bleeding, and my eyes didnt water! Brian was so gentle and friendly with me, talking me through the process and readily answering any questions I had - Ive been recommending him and Standard Ink to everyone since. Thanks, Brian! Loving it!
