Dogstar Tattoo
Tattoos & Piercings in Durham, NC
Dogstar Tattoo Company is the vision of Kathryn Moore, the owner of the shop. After working in another shop, Kathryn decided to open Dogstar in May 1997. Opening the correct type of place she had in mind was not an easy task. Tattoo parlors don't exactly have the type of reputation other businesses want nearby. After driving around Durham for four months she finally found a space on Ninth Street. 9th Street benefits from the college vibe offered by Duke University, so its filled with unusual shops and eateries that make a tattoo studio a lot less conspicuous than it would be in the local suburban strip mall.
