“Immaculately clean shop with welcoming, gifted artists. Absolutely the best tattoo gallery in Wilmington, hands down!

Stylist: Regis is amazing! He covered up several old tattoos on my forearms with beautiful, vibrant work that exceeded all my expectations and resurrected an old tattoo with sharp lines and amazing blackwork. I've also never had such a personable and engaging artist. I look forward to collaborating with him for all my future tattoos.“

The shop overall has a great vibe, everyone is super friendly and makes you feel welcome. 10/10 can’t recommend them enough!“

Rockstar Tattoo Wilmington Tattoo

“Let me just start by saying this shop is amazing, but Baylor is truly the standout for me. She has an incredible talent for taking your ideas and transforming them into artwork that goes above and beyond what you imagined. Every piece she’s done for me has been nothing short of phenomenal.

What really sets Baylor apart is not only her artistry but the experience she creates. She’s as gentle and accommodating as possible, making the whole tattoo process comfortable and stress-free. On top of that, her personality is a huge bonus—she’s hilarious, fun to talk to, and makes every session something I actually look forward to. I’ve laughed harder in her chair than anywhere else, and that kind of vibe makes the shop feel welcoming and comfortable for everyone.

If you want a tattoo that looks incredible and an experience that’s just as good, go see Baylor at Rockstar. Her skills are next level, her energy is unmatched, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!“

She addressed every concern I had and gave me the brows I wanted. I just went back for my touch up and couldn’t be happier. For someone who was really nervous the first time, I was now confident in her judgement and expertise. I’m so glad to have found her. I won’t let anyone else touch my brows now!“
