Rent a Space at Wild Violet

Your business. Your clients. Your schedule. A place to grow.

Wild Violet is a licensed studio and a collective of independent beauty and body art artists in Red Bank, just minutes from North Shore and downtown Chattanooga. Every artist here runs their own business: you set your own prices, build your own clientele, and work the hours that fit your life. We take care of the space, so you can focus on your craft.

Coming soon: our new home

We're moving into our new Red Bank studio at the end of October 2026! The images on this page are concept renderings of the finished space, designed to match the look and feel of our current studio. We'll share real photos as soon as we're moved in.

Our current studio. Same vibe, new home.

Who It's For

We'd love to hear from PMU artists, tattoo artists, estheticians, massage therapists, and piercers who are ready to grow their business in a space that feels supportive, professional, and welcoming.

Private Rooms

Concept renderings

Open Stations

Furnished stations with a table, cabinet, and sink, ready for you to walk in and start booking. They're a great fit for tattoo artists, PMU artists, and piercers who don't need a private room.

Full-time: $175/week or $700/month
Part-time, 3 set days with alternating Saturdays: $120/week or $480/month
Part-time, weekdays only: $110/week or $440/month

Still building your books? Our starter commission option lets you pay a percentage of your weekly services instead of flat rent for your first few months, with a weekly cap so you never pay more than a flat renter.

PMU APPRENTICESHIP IN Chattanooga TN

Wild Violet is dedicated to helping artists grow into skilled, confident PMU professionals. Designed for newly certified artists who need to obtain their Tennessee Tattoo Artist License, our apprenticeship offers hands-on experience, meaningful client interactions, and direct mentorship from Maris.

PROGRAM DURATION AND REQUIREMENTS

You will be responsible for taking basic training program(s) before beginning the apprenticeship. Maris can advise you what to take depending on what your focus is. We do not offer any basic training and you must be able to show your work (either on portico skin or real models) before being considered to apprentice.

Our one-year apprenticeship provides a comprehensive, hands-on education. You learn best by doing. As an apprentice you’ll work on real models and clients with our guidance, practicing every step of PMU—consultation, brow mapping, application, and aftercare. This hands-on training builds your skills and confidence in a supportive setting.

Safety is crucial in PMU. You’ll learn strict sanitation and safety steps: skin prep, sterilizing tools, and protecting clients. We’ll teach all safe PMU practices so you can work confidently in any professional setting.

We offer a path that fulfills all necessary requirements for state licensure, including practice hours and observation by a licensed professional.

WHAT DOES THE PMU APPRENTICESHIP COST?

When your apprenticeship license gets the thumbs up from Tennessee’s Health Department, you will work on commission for the duration of the apprenticeship.
