Awesome! I had my rook pierced by Shea Collins! He was super nice, professional, put my mind (and my nerves) at ease, and made the experience perfect. The shop was well maintained and clean. I HIGHLY recommend Dogstar :)

Excellent experience here. Got my first tattoo here with Chris. It was clear that he was both a professional and talented artist. Everything was clean and I felt comfortable the whole time. 10/10 experience will be coming back here if I ever get another one.

Seriously, the best!! I went here to get my nose pierced and was super nervous, but Shea was helpful, accommodating, and made me feel comfortable. This was my first piercing that wasn’t my earlobe and a great experience.

just got my ribcage tattoo started here and i love it! Zeus does awesome work and i look forward to getting it completed. he was really great with helping me with my nerves and talked to me to help me ignore the pain, and he really did talk to me and ask my opinion and work with me on the design. the rest of the staff were super friendly and the place looks great :) outside is deceiving, but this place is totally awesome! i will definitely return here for every tattoo i get and recommend the place to others :) two thumbs up!!!

5 stars is an understatement. I got my helix pierced by Seth and it was it a pleasant, relaxing experience--the place is beautiful, well lit, extremely clean, and beautiful. But really I am giving 5 stars because my piercing got inflamed after a few days--I called Dogstar and Seth gave me wonderful advice after hours on his own time. This is the most expensive place I've been ($50 for one helix piercing), but worth EVERY PENNY for quality piercing and service! THANK YOU SETH!!!

I came in and got my ears pierced by Emity she was amazing, full of spirit and very professional I was a little bit scared because last time I got my ears pierced they got super infected but when getting them re-pierced I had absolutely no problems they did not get infected there was no swelling and I love my new earrings!

TJ did my tat and did an AMAZING job!! I jus moved here from Kansas May 2020 and this was my first tattoo in NC and it was a representation ok Kansas with a sunflower and I’m absolutely IN LOVE with it!! Dogstar came highly recommended when a newbie to NC like myself asked around. TJ is amazing!

Unreal. After discussing the thoughts about the tattoo two days prior to the appointment, I come to the appointment and happen to be 15 minutes early. My tattoo artist literally stands there until the 15 minutes is up and comes up to me and says what did you have in mind. Even though we had discussed it two days prior. I showed her and told her what I was thinking and asked her to draw her idea of it and she just continually said we can’t do that. I asked what part of it you cannot do And her response was the whole thing. I asked her if she could just do the art artist part of being a tattoo artist and draw me her idea and she basically did not want to. Both times I have been to the salon they have been very difficult in dealing with the artwork. They want me to do the drawings and give them exactly what I want, yet in my mind I’m looking for an artist to help me get it on paper. Not happy.

I would highly recommend Dogstar tattoo to anyone. I was in earlier this evening and got my nose pierced by Shea, he was very informative and caring. The piercing was quick and easy. I also got a back tattoo from T.J. He took his time, yet it seemed like it was over before I knew it, I appreciated that he often asked if I was doing alight. Both of the men did an amazing job, I will definitely be back.

Went with my sister in law for a piercing. Worked with Shea, and he was great. Very professional and thorough - way above and beyond what I expected for just a second earlobe piercing. (But maybe I am just ignorant of the procedure lol). Very pleasant overall!
