(246)

As proprietor, I have 24 years experience tattooing; so can not only offer good, clean, artistic, and sanitary tattooing, but I can also offer my clients guidance tempered by the wisdom gained over the past decade and a half. But I also want it to be MORE than just a tattoo shop! The shop location, in Bryson City, NC, is situated within easy walking distance of several art galleries, frame shops,

book stores, museums, restaurants, bakeries, and even a community theater. It also has a fantastic lobby area that serves as a gallery space for up and coming, young, local, and non-mainstream type artists.

Donno here!
Ok! Tomorrow- May 10, 2026, is MOTHERS’ DAY!
It’s also Sunday. DHGT is closed on Sundays, right?
Well…. If you don’t already have a badass gift for your mom, why not convince me to come in on my day off and tattoo her- or better yet, both of you!
I didn’t plan out a special at all- I’m gonna let you guys guide me on this one… Tell me your tattoo idea, I’ll give you a super sweet mothers’ day discount.
But ya gotta message me today!
Best bet is to message my personal Messenger (Donno Layton).

UPDATE/ there is more than one profile working this scam, and they have now asked one of our clients for a $40 deposit….
Remember, folks- if it sounds too good to be true, IT IS.
Don’t jump at the chance for a free tattoo from someone you e never even heard of.

……….

FOR THE RECORD- Kortney Kinkaid, Maikel Gurerro, and I (Donno), are the only tattooers working out of DHGT.
If anyone else tells you they are tattooing here, they are lying.
If they try to collect a deposit from you, they are trying to scam you.

Keep your head on a swivel, folks.

Oh, and come get tattooed!

I have not yet created an event page, but the July artist to be featured in the Gallery At DHGT will be our very own Catie Hogue Millard!
She is currently in a contest that you can help her win by voting for free once a day!
When she makes it through to the finals, which we all know she will, the final round of voting begins on the same day as her opening reception at the shop, July 3!
So vote early and vote often!
Further details about her art show shall be forthcoming.

Kortney, here! Yesterday I had the pleasure of having a booth at my daughter's school for middle school career day.. I had a blast! The time went so quickly because needless to say, my table was definitely the most popular. I spent the time applying temporary tattoos and answering lots of questions!
