Another busy day here at Chateau Tattoo with Matt, Mike, Terrell, and Vince 🤗 Mike will be at Needle-Brush Studio with Matt for a few days in April. I *think* he’s already booked for those days, but if you’d like to see him and still get some ink, Matt is an amazeball artist I’d recommend booking with if you’re in the ‘paign. If you don’t already, give him a follow @needlebrush_13 for more of his great work!

Here’s one Mike did for a long-time client. Thank you so much Rachael! It’s always a blast when you’re in ☺️ Thanks everyone for all of your support!

Mike got another session in on this Phoenix WIP. Couple more sessions to go and I can’t wait to see it when it’s done! He’s currently booking June, so get me your reference photos to get on his schedule 🙂

Absolutely love this one done by Mike! He’s currently booking end of May/June; Vince and Terrell are booking April, so get me those references and I’ll schedule you in with one of our talented and honest artists 😊

This one just hits different, mostly right in the feels, much respect to you Trooper Brown!!!

Today’s travel day for Mike, so I’ll share his pictures/songs he’s listening to throughout the day as much as I can. If you have any suggestions, fun car games, etc. comment them and I’ll pass them on to him as he checks in. As always, Terrell and Vince are both in today with some availability so let’s make today a Happy New Tattoo Day!

I’m trying to remind myself to post more, so here’s one that Mike did yesterday. I absolutely love this! Send me your references and I’ll get you scheduled for your very own Soldier Mike piece 😊

🚨 Announcement time! 🚨 We have always prided ourselves on being a quality shop with a welcoming atmosphere. It is our goal to have trustworthy artists who share our expectations for professionalism, honesty, and hard work. With that being said, we are super excited to be able to announce the arrival of Mad Rob into the shop! He’s based out of Texas and has been tattooing since 2003. He’ll start taking appointments and walk-ins next Monday, provided Mother Nature doesn’t delay his flight North. There’s currently no firm end date on how long he’ll be up here this go-around, so get in while you can!

Roads are closed and most of us are snowed in so another snow day it is! Everyone stay warm and try to stay home as much as possible. Be safe if you need to go out. Hopefully we’ll see your faces tomorrow!

The shop will be closed today. Everyone stay safe and warm!

Finished piece from last night. Thanks for looking!

Patience living up to her name today! Between moving stations and Fulk doing his contractor thing, we got to spend more time with her than she probably wanted lol I’ll be posting progress pictures of the shop in the next couple days so you can see what we’ve been getting up to. We’ll also be having a visitor later this week, but more of that later 😊 Everyone stay warm and safe out there!

Finished octopus done by Mike. He’s currently booking end of March/beginning of April, so send us a message with your references and let’s get something awesome scheduled 🙂

Hand drawn piece from Mike. Stay tuned for video of completed work 🙂

Here’s one done by Mike a couple weeks ago. His February is pretty much booked already and March is booking up fast. Shoot me a message and we’ll get your spot reserved for your new spring piece 🙂

WIP Mike’s working on today of Joseph of Arimathea, the Patron Saint of Funeral Directors. Can’t wait to see the finished piece!

Most people call him Soldier Mike, but to Mika, he’s daddy, and when baby girl turns 16 and asks for her first tattoo, well Dad goes in on his day off to make his little girl smile. Happy birthday Miss Mika! Love you bunches!! 🎈🎉

We got our new signs in, drive by and check them out!!! @enlightened.obsessions thank you so much for all the signage I have gotten from you!!!

**ATTENTION** If you see this guy out and about today, make sure you tell him Happy Birthday! Don’t forget the birthday spankings 😊

St. Christopher for this service Member to keep him safe on his travels!!! @industryinks @happygurutattoocare @axysrotary @operationtattooingfreedom #stchristopher #indianatattooartist #indianatattoo #blackandgreytattoo #yournewfavoriteink #travelingartist #safetravels

Hand drawn piece Mike did at the Clarksville location. Simba was already there, not done by Mike. I’ll add before pic in the comments. Mike’s January schedule is mostly full, but there are still some openings for tattoos and piercings. Send me a message to schedule an appointment for the Lafayette location 🙂

Traditional rose for a visiting service member. It was his first tattoo and he sat like a champ! Good luck and stay safe in all your future travels!!

I have really been slacking on my social media posting, who wants to take over lol @happygurutattoocare @industryinks @operationtattooingfreedom @axysrotary #happygurutattoocare #industryinks #yournewfavoriteink #operationtattooingfreedom #axysrotary #vahalla #thankyouall #moretocome😉

Today is an official day to thank the people who sacrificed so much for the ones they love and millions more that they’ll never meet. Sacrifices like asking a doctor to induce your daughter’s birth a week early so you can meet her before you deploy or leave for training. Then celebrating her next 3 birthdays through pictures or email because you’re on the other side of the world. This is so common with our service members; weddings, birth’s, first day of kindergarten, graduations. We see the videos of emotional reunions at games or school and we get teary eyed and feel happy for them, as we should. But there’s a deeper meaning behind the tears. It’s the complete and utter relief of having your spouse/parent/sibling physically present for another event when you had already accepted that you would have to share that day via phone or video chat. So thank you, to every veteran, but especially to my two favorites. Michael and my baby brother Richard. I love you both ♥️ -Shari

Everyone take a moment out of your scrolling to wish Momma Pat a Happy 21st birthday!! Happy Birthday Momma!!!

*Please read* Mike’s books are now open! If you were on his waitlist, you should have been messaged about scheduling already so thank you for your patience!! There are some spots in November that are still open, but most scheduling will be for December. Beginning in December, Mike will be moving to Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s off. Nate, Sunday, and Vince are still booking for all of November, so send us those references so we can get your appointment scheduled!

Roses and compass action, this was a fun piece and a great dude.

Before and After swipe to see, another free cover up/fix up, just needed a little love!!!

Another cover up for new beginnings, I haven’t been keeping up with my post on Instagram or anywhere for that matter, looks like it might time to hire someone again to do that lol 😂 @happygurutattoocare @operationtattooingfreedom @soldiermikestattoos @industryinks #happygurutattoocare #operationtattooingfreedom #industryinks #yournewfavoriteink

Allow us to introduce our new mascot, Rosco! He enjoys long walks in the park and has a weakness for peanuts. Feel free to give him a wave if you see him but don’t expect a wave back, he’s a little on the shy side ☺️

Always with my travel hoodie @loadedtransportation great people, great business, great hoodies!!! You can tell a lot about a business by their merchandise and these hoodies are top quality, just like them!!! I will be back to lafayette soon everyone!!! Thank you all!!! #loadedtransportation #forallyourtransportationneeds #bookthemtoday #thankyouforyoursupport #thankyou

This is how not to get an appt for a cover up, I work 7 days a week, I do cover ups on hate and gang related tattoos out of the kindness of my heart and for people to better themselves, I use my time, my supplies, my shop, my heart, I pass no judgement and I do the best I can to get everyone in. Instead of doing one a week or so, I been doing as many as I can, squeezing them in where ever possible, on my day off, if I can take it, I schedule them in, even with supplies on the rise, I still been doing them, for free. I have gotten a ton of backlash, yet I’m still doing them, it’s my shop, my supplies, my time, and yes there is a wait list, please be patience and kind, if you come to me with this type of attitude, I will not stand for it, don’t talk to the people at my shop disrespectfully, paying or not, you will never be allowed in my shop. Thank you all for your support and patience. -Soldier Mike

In the words of my client, “what I am going through can’t compare to what he went through. I can go through hell and still be a light.” Super simple but elegant and tasteful with a huge meaning behind it. @happygurutattoocare @industryinks @soldiermikestattoos @operationtattooingfreedom @axysrotary #happygurutattoocare #happyguruskincare #yournewfavoriteink #operationtattooingfreedom #axysrotary #vahallatattoopen #lovewhatyoudo #dowhatyoulove #takeprideinwhatyoudo #focusonthepositive #livetodobetter #livetobebetter #moveforward #thankyou

Session one down on this one!!! Lots more to come, this man and and I had a great conversation about changing for the better, the world, and children growing up not to hate, he wouldn’t let me do it for free like I usually do, he insisted that he pay up front and I helped him move forward in life one more step. Thank you and thank you for your good conversation. Move forward and help the world become a brighter place filled with love and respect. @happygurutattoocare @industryinks @erasinghate @operationtattooingfreedom @soldiermikestattoos @loadedtransportation #happygurutattoocare #loadedtransportation #yournewfavoriteink #spreadlovenothate #operationtattooingfreedom #lovewhatyoudo #lovewhatido #erasinghate #moretocome #sessionone #hateishate #loveoneanother #thankyouforthesupport

Deeply held beliefs are the hardest to change. It takes a major life change, along with the love and acceptance of a strong support system to change something that influenced your day to day life. This client came to me because he’d had such a change in his life. We had a really great conversation and I feel lucky to be part of his new chapter.  Love is love and there is no room for hate in today’s society. We do these types of coverups free of charge, so if you have any you’d like covered up, message us and we’ll be more than happy to get you set up with something you’re proud of. @happygurutattoocare @industryinks @electrumstencilproducts @operationtattooingfreedom @soldiermikestattoos @tattoosbysoldiermike @piercingsbysoldiermike #industryinks #yournewfavoriteink #operationtattooingfreedom #happygurutattoocare #endhate #loveoneanother #lovewhatido #lovewhatyoudo #dowhatyoulove #thanksforthesupport #loveislove #bethechange #peoplechange #newbeginnings

The Soldier Mike Mobile, originally built for the 2012 SEMA show for @enemytofashion I picked it up at a car lot in no where Kentucky and just had to have it, it’s just right and it’s in my colors and theme, I truly dig what they did, some laugh, some giggle, some shake their heads, others, well don’t care, meh. I enjoy it and it is my little toy for the shop, advertisement and gas saver!!! @tattoosbysoldiermike @operationtattooingfreedom @soldiermikestattoo @happygurutattoocare #vroomvroom #skirtskirt #chevyspark #sparkitup #sparkupyourlife #ancientastimemodernastomorrow #lovewhatyoudo #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatido #dipnrip #tattoolife #travelingartist #veterantattooartist #operationtattooingfreedom #letsgetit #liveyourlife #tomorrowisntpromised #thankyouforyoursupport
