We’re beyond honored to be featured in Inked Magazine’s article: “Favorite Studios Across the Globe.” 🌍🖤

To be recognized on an international level is surreal, especially as a tattoo studio rooted in Knoxville, Tennessee. From East TN to the global stage, we’re deeply humbled and incredibly grateful.

Every tattoo we create is a piece of our heart, and this moment is a reflection of the passion, dedication, and community that makes our studio what it is.

Thank you, @inkedmag, for shining a spotlight on our team and thank you to our clients for trusting us with your stories.

I don’t have the words for how grateful I am. 2024 has been one of my best years yet. Honored to be featured here with these bad ass women in our community. by @aprilthisway

My whole Monday in 6minutes. This was so hard to do, no two days are the same, and I had to cut so much to get it to fit. Let me know what you think… #dayinthelife taken in Born This Way Body Arts by @aprilthisway
