Warlock's Tattoo and Eight Moons Piercing

Warlock's Tattoo and Eight Moons Piercing is a Raleigh, North Carolina tattoo studio supported by a team with over 100 years of combined tattoo experience. Owned by veteran artist Byron Wallace, who has worked behind a tattoo machine for the past 40 years, the shop has grown into one of the most well-known studios in the southeastern United States. The team specializes in custom tattoos, vivid color work built with high-quality inks for longevity, black and gray tattoos, and cover-up tattoos that fully transform old pieces into new designs. The artist lineup includes long-tenured names like Ernie Rose, along with Aaron, Al Breezy, Ashlei, Bill, and Chubbs, offering a range of styles from bold traditional American work to detailed black and grey artistry.

The studio has recently expanded with the addition of Eight Moons LLC, an in-house professional piercing studio offering ear styling, facial piercings, and curated body jewelry using implant-grade materials and modern techniques. Walk-ins are welcome for piercing services, and the space is described as safe, clean, and welcoming for newcomers and returning clients alike. With decades of continuous operation and a reputation built across the Triangle area, the shop maintains a strong emphasis on tradition, craftsmanship, and consistency, upholding rigorous sanitization and sterilization standards throughout the tattooing and piercing process.
