Tattoo Shops in Wilkesboro, NC
3 studios in and around Wilkesboro, North Carolina — call ahead even for walk-ins — a shop with five artists can still be booked solid on a Saturday, and piercing hours often differ from tattoo hours.
Carbon 14 Tattoo & Piercing
104 W Main St, Wilkesboro, NC 28697-2423
Valle Ink Tattoos and Body Piercings
1207 Central St, Wilkesboro, NC 28697-2277
Tip: weekday afternoons are the easiest time to get a walk-in seat — Friday and Saturday fill with appointments by noon. For custom work, message the artist a week ahead with reference images; a deposit of $50–100 that counts toward the final price is standard practice, not a red flag.
