Hear my story
Growing up, I never thought I would get a tattoo, let alone become a tattooer. Needless to say, I’ve changed in a lot of ways but my roots are still what shape me. I’ve always had a passion for drawing, the outdoors, and fantasy stories and those early interests heavily influence my tattoos. My story is nothing crazy, but it is unexpected.
Located in Midtown, Definitive Tattoo Gallery is one of Kansas City’s premier tattoo shops. We seek to provide you with the highest quality experience in every aspect: art, comfort, safety, fun, and everything in between.

Client Testimonials
Nathan’s commitment, approachability, connection to his client, and his talent with color and design would bring me back to this parlor and to him for any other work I choose to do in the future. He was a joy to work with (thanks for letting me be there all day to do everything in one sitting) and is an asset beyond expectations.
-Billy S.
Nathan went above and beyond with his artwork and gave me something I will treasure forever. Thank you so much for your talent and time!
-Tiffany R.
I’ve been working on an arm sleeve with Nathan Rice since 2022 and have spent many hours in the shop since then. There’s almost always a silly movie on and all the other artists are so welcoming and friendly! 10/10 great vibe if you’re sitting for hours getting your skin blasted with ink.
-Rachel S.
Nate has been tattooing me for a little over 2 years now. I can’t say enough about how welcoming and professional the shop is, paired with the abilities of each artist. Love definitive!
