Have you ever slept through a tattoo? Our studio is full of sleepy bois today. One napping during a throat piece and the other snoozing during his first tattoo. Absolute BEASTS 👏🏼

Throwing it back to last November at The Allstars Tattoo Convention in Miami today, because in only ONE MONTH our entire team will be attending the Villain Arts Tattoo Festivals convention in our hometown Asheville, NC! Darian will be competing for best in show as well as other titles, and Wendy is almost fully booked for the weekend, but she’ll have time for walk ins on Sunday! Katie will also be with us that weekend, so come say hi, grab a free sticker, and shop exclusive Gilded Needle merch ⚜️

One of our favorite things about making tattoos for you all is how unique each piece is. Some folks want bold, big, and eye catching tattoos. Others want something delicate, inconspicuous, and barely there. Sometimes, it’s a combination of styles or an idea that’s completely new! No one style is any better than another- they’re just different!

We want to bring your tattoo dreams to life. That’s why we take the time to create one of a kind designs that capture the image in your mind and transfer it to your skin in a way that looks amazing fresh and maintains integrity through the years. We’re filling our fall 2026 and winter 2027 books, so reach out if you’d like a tattoo that you’re proud to wear now and in the future.
