Triple Moon Tattoo

Worked with Juliet and she’s awesome! I got two flash tattoos done, both in color. Juliet was prepared with a few sizes to try and was patient and encouraging throughout the process of applying/moving the stencil.Juliet was friendly, communicative, easy to work with and made sure I was comfortable throughout the appointment. She is also nice, professional, easy to talk to, and works quickly but delivers high quality tatts 💖. It’s a very clean shop, calm but not silent (which I like), and feels comfortable, safe, and supportive. I definitely recommend working with Juliet!*updated* I got some more things done by Juliet today and it was another great experience. I wanted an assortment of fillers and she was ready with pieces and I was able to work out which to put where. Juliet was very encouraging and patient throughout the process. She was especially forgiving of me cutting the session short when my pain lev was getting to be too much. Juliet offered some things to help and was very understanding / didn’t make me feel bad for it. She made it really easy to schedule another session to continue the project, and I love the result!

I highly recommend the artist Greysha at Triple Moon! Greysha is so sweet, did an amazing job, and is always a pleasure to work with!! I’ve gotten two tattoos by her so far and definitely plan to continue coming back!My first request was rather open ended and she delivered the cutest lil guy 🥰. I loved it so much I quickly was back to schedule again. I think Greysha’s art style is really cool and feels unique in the best way. Usually I’m super specific with my tattoo requests but I love her style and I’m so glad I left it open ended, because they’ve been such a wonderful surprise on reveal 💖.Her tattoo work is also beautiful and I love how she blends the colors. Clean, beautiful line work. It’s clear she cares about her client and wants to deliver a high quality tattoo that you’ll never second guess. Greysha is easy to work with, making sure you’re comfortable, and never applying any sort of pressure to do things a specific way. She is very professional and mindful of making the client feel safe and supported. I loved talking with her, and it helped the appointment fly by as well. It was a particularly and especially and great environment for the neurodivergent, socially anxious, and/or gender nonconforming people.Greysha works in a clean environment, with quality supplies, and is hygienic throughout the process. Her portfolio is available on Instagram as well, which made it easy for me to see Granny_Garbage. I recommend working with her!

Lauren is excellent. She worked with me to make sure I got the design I wanted. Handwriting is from my mother who passed away. Excellent work. Highly recommend

Absolutely love this place. Everyone was so kind. The atmosphere was great. Hannah did 2 tattoos for me and she was so much fun and made sure I was comfortable. This will be my go to place from now on when I want some new ink. Very happy and had a great experience.

My sister and I called yesterday to walk in for a small yin and yang matching tattoos. Hannah was so helpful on the phone and super friendly! Greysha was our artist. She was completely honest about the placement we wanted and worked with us to choose the best placement (instead of inside finger) for longevity. We were so comfortable! We will be back when we come visit Raleigh again!

110% reccomend coming here for your next tattoo! Candice is such an awesome tattoo artist and person. I am quite the wuss when it comes to pain but she was VERY understanding, nonjudgmental, and even helpful by giving tips to help ease my mind through the pain. If you plan on using tegaderm for your aftercare, bring some with you as they don’t carry it there but Candice put ours on for us! Such an awesome place. Very informative and seems like they keep up with continuing education and keeping up with the times. 5/5 stars!!

I made a last-minute appointment here while I was on vacation. The girl working the phone/ front desk was so friendly, which made me glad I chose this tattoo shop on a whim. My friend and I got a small and simple tattoo by Greysha. She was also so nice, and we loved chatting with her. Our tattoos turned out exactly how we wanted. I for sure recommend this place.

Tattooed by Steve today after trying to grab one of his designs for over a year and MAN was it worth the wait! He made me feel very comfortable and welcomed and showed genuine concern with size and placement of the piece I had completed to ensure it looked its best from all angles. Two other artists were working on their own clients as I was receiving my tattoo and we all were having a great time chatting back and forth. 3 hours later and I left a VERY happy customer with my 6th tattoo. Ill definitely be back for future work!

Candice did ink for myself and my daughter during one of her drop bys at Evoke in Chicago. She. Is. Amazing. The tat itself (representing my wife and two children) as well as the 3 1/2 hour sit were (and are), literally, life transformative. Candice is an artist of stunning talent and a human of sincere grace. I am blown away by her talent. The entire experience was amazing. Thank you, Candice!

Candice Tekus is amazing! I sent her a bunch of pics of my cats for my kitties in space tattoo, and she picked the ones that perfectly matched their personalities. She is a master of color and a pleasure to sit for. Well worth the wait on her books!

After deciding to get my first tattoo I researched a few places in Raleigh and finally found this one. The studio was super clean and comfortable and everyone I met was friendly and welcoming. Please checkout their website and each artists Instagrams as they all seem really talented. My artist was Juliet and I would really recommend her if you like her style.Update 1/14/24: Just wanted to update my review to add that I ended up going to Juliet again to get a second tattoo on 8/12/23 and both have healed great. The second visit was just as good as the first.

Candices work is amazing and she is a wonderful person. My sister and I got tattoos to memorialize our grandmother and Candice was super accommodating, thoughtful, and did a beautiful job.

Everyone here was amazing. best atmosphere hands down. work is just as amazing

Got these eyes tattooed a few days ago by Candice. I sent in a few reference photos and she was able to put them all together into one beautiful piece. I was initially scheduled for January and she got me in 3 months earlier than expected! I’ve already gotten a lot of compliments and will be back 💖 (excuse the blood I’m a bleeder!)

If you get lucky enough to get on the books with Candice, I can promise you, you will not regret it! I have spent countless hours in the chair with her and cannot express how amazing of and artist and person she is! Years later my tattoos still look like they did a week after they were done!

Great shop, awesome artists, clean environment. Everyone I reached out to was extremely responsive when requesting last minute availability. We walked in the shop and Ariana greeted us like she’d known us forever. Lance did our tatts. He was nice, professional and humorous. All of the artists were nice and encouraging for my bestie getting her 1st tattoo. Definitely recommend and would go back again!!!!

Everyone in the shop was friendly. It was such a fun environment and the artists that work there are amazing!

I am so excited about my new tattoo that the exceptional artist, Candice, created for me. She was friendly, professional and so knowledgable that I was comfortable from the moment she began working on it. I was there for three hours and had a wonderful experience!

Had my first tattoo done by Michelle. Turned out really nice. I was skeptical about the color at first as it was a last minute decision but I’ve had a lot of compliments. Will be back for my next tattoo😊

Absolutely fantastic shop. Steve is obviously an incredible artist, but hes also a pleasure to work with. Everyone is friendly, helpful, clean, and efficient. Ive already recommended them to multiple friends and will continue to do so 🔥

Absolutely love this studio! The atmosphere is incredible and the staff are friendly and helpful! I had the pleasure of Jaq tattooing an incredibly emotional piece of artwork on me and she couldn’t have been more empathizing and professional! Right off the bat she knew the tattoo was emotional and offered support. As we were starting the process she made sure to first ask for my consent for her to touch my body. I know that sounds weird, she’s a tattoo artist, she has to touch my body, right? But it was that little extra of added comfort that really makes the difference! I felt like she respected me, my space, and my body! This is what tattoo studios should all be about and I’m here for it!

Received my first tattoo this weekend and it was done by Steve. Steve was incredibly awesome and is such a great artist. He walked me through the whole process, offered his advice for placement and explained everything clearly so it was easy to understand. He also took the time to explain everything along the way since this was my first tattoo and gave me tips on what to do during. HIGHLY recommend Steve and Triple Moon Tattoo. The entire staff was great!

Steve was awesome! Enjoyed talking with him and my tattoo came out awesome! Will be back for more very soon, and very often!

Juliet and other staff were lovely, I had an amazing experience - friendly, kind, and Juliet did amazing work. I will definitely be returning for all my future tattoos!

Ariana is awesome! We are working on a huge leg tattoo and it’s going great, I’m so excited to continue coming here!

Cant say enough awesome things about Candice! Shes tattooed 2 amazing pieces for me and I already have my 3rd appointment set. Her work is flawless, her design skills and vision for the tattoo are amazing, and shes overall a super chill chick.

Seriously awesome! Working on my first large piece and honestly I am such a wuss. Candice however talks me through it and is soooooo patient. Her work is AMAZING too. If you are getting your first tattoo, go here. Very knowledgeable, love all the other artists as well and very relaxed atmosphere.

Loved getting my tattoo here! The space is large, but cozy. Jaq was my artist and was so thoughtful and kind. She asked me my pronouns which I greatly appreciated and asked consent before touching me. She made me feel very welcome and the shop had such a nice relaxed vibe to it! Definitely will be recommending this shop to everyone!

This is a top tier female-owned tattoo parlor in downtown Raleigh NC. Candice Tekus (owner) created and tattooed this amazing forearm piece featuring a cat face and other gorgeous details for me last week. The parlor is so clean, open, and everyone has the best energy. Ive been tattooed at many places but this by far made me the most comfortable and was the most enjoyable. The quality of work that is put out by the artists at this location is absolutely phenomenal. Ive never felt more at ease during a tattoo session. Ill be telling everyone about this shop and I know Ill be back before too long.

Why do I love this place...BEST TATTOO I have ever gotten. The shop was clean, down to earth with a very relaxed atmosphere. The artists knowledge of tattoos and tattooing is incredible. The crisp lines, shadowing, mixing and blending of colors is outstanding. I have gotten tattoos from all over the country and NONE of them have come close to Triple Moon. I plan on getting more tattoos and I have found my shop. Thank you everyone and thank you Ms Connelly for an excellent tattoo. It really turned out better than I expected. See ya soon!!!!

Ariana..... ROCKS. You wont be making a bad decision to use any of the artists at Triple Moon. Now, go get ur appointment.

Cannot say enough good things about Triple Moon Tattoo! Amazing experience, awesome, clean shop, INCOMPARABLE TATTOO! Steve was absolutely phenomenal and my new tattoo is the best Ive ever gotten! Super knowledgeable and an amazing artist! If youre looking for an awesome experience with amazing artists, this is the tattoo shop for you!!! Shoutout to Ichabod!

Candace has been tattooing me for the better part of a year now and I love it and her. She has a finesse and talent that we are not worthy of. She’s also just an all-around cool lady with a great energy and the best table-side manner. I could hang out with her all day even if she’s not drawing on me!Marco is also an insanely talented artist. Though I’ve not had him do any work on me, I have seen him do some amazing pieces on other folks.These two party people and their studio are gems. I’m so glad to have found TM and I’m pretty sure I’ll never stop getting work there.

I first got a tattoo from them a while ago and then I wanted something added to it later on. I recently went back to see them again and I was just as comfortable as the first time. Jaq did my tattoo, she is awesome. She was easy to work with and super nice. We got to have a really interesting moment that I don’t think I have ever experienced before in any other kind of business that does a service for you, she felt more like a close homie. The shop looks like its name should be Triple Moon Tattoo from the way it’s decorated, it just looks like a psychic parlor or that you showed up to get the demons removed or tatted on you. The vibes and energy is right. And now.. my tattoo is simple but easily my favorite and even most proud tattoo and I feel like I have all the power of a rainbow and past gay people when I’m looking at it. It feels like it just lights up so thank you again Jaq and everyone at Triple Moon, peace!

Candice is literally the best tattoo artist ive ever had to grace my skin with artwork. professional, hard working and stellar talent. Waiting patiently to book a few more.

I spend 4 days texting and messaging these people trying to set up a tattoo appointment and kept getting the run around , I would not Recommend this Tattoo shop . I was told to text this employee and I texted and got no response and then told to text this other employee and did not get a response from her either. They would never get me a day or time . I said I could come anytime after 4:00 or anytime on the weekends and they would not respond.You do not respond to any text but you will respond when a bad review is posted because people can see that.Funny how you can not respond to text or call but you jump right on a bad review when others can see that.

I got two tattoos from Connelly and they were both incredibly done! For one of my tattoos I only gave her a vague idea of what I wanted and when she was finished it was 1000% better than what I even had in mind. The shop itself was very nice and everyone who worked there was very helpful. Definitely going back!

Candice has an incredibly talented ability to create and personalize your artwork. She has completed my right arm and I soon look forward to beginning my left. I will only use her for my artwork bc she has earned my respect and trust. I highly recommend her to anyone.

Got a beautiful tattoo by Candice yesterday and I love it so much. Candice was very professional, sweet and efficient with her time. I am honestly in awe of how vibrant the color is. Great experience.

Awesome place! Candice did an amazing job on my tattoo. Shes friendly, talented, and REALLY knows her stuff. I highly recommend getting your next tat done here.

Hands down the best tattooing experience Ive ever had! Connelly did a wonderful job. She was patient, informative, and easy to talk to. My session didnt take long and wasnt all that painful. You can tell she takes pride in what she does and that is truly appreciated and comforting. The work she has done on me looks so neat and perfect. I wish I would have found her sooner. I will definitely be returning to her for future tatts. Thank you Connelly for such a wonderful experience!

I can’t say enough amazing things about this shop. Candice has done several tattoos for me and she always does great work. The shop is clean and very professional. The receptionist, Katlin, is responsive and helped answer all my questions. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Can’t wait for my next tattoo.

Came here for the first time last week because a coworker recommended the place. I’m so glad she did because I absolutely loved working with Connelly on my most recent toothless dragon tattoo! I told her what I wanted and she created the perfect piece for me. I definitely recommend coming to this cute little place in downtown and seeing Connelly! She’s so outgoing, talented and I could tell she absolutely enjoys what she does. Katlin is up at the front welcoming & booking appts for the clients & she’s super friendly :)

Their artists are amazing and super friendly. I got my first tattoo done by Jaq, and she did a perfect job. The original artist, Marcos Alvarado, posted her work of his illustration on his instagram page (@marcosalvardoart)! I will be back for my next one really soon!

I had been looking for a proper illustrative artist for about 2 years now. I wanted a huge leg piece based on animation from childhood shows, movies, and games. This is a pretty big task seeing how different shows have different animation styles. I came across Steve after stumbling across Triple moons Instagram. I immediately reached out to the shop with my ideas, consulted with Steve the same day and had an appointment for two weeks later. This was a big deal for me because it would take up my whole leg and would be the most important tattoo I had ever gotten. Needless to say, I was nervous. I had an idea in my head and I was honestly terrified no one would understand. When I walked in, I was immediately presented with the tattoo design I could have only imagined in my mind. The design was wonderful; and everything I wanted. We spent 5 hours tattooing the line work for it, and it was by far the easiest tattoo I have ever sat for. Steve was aware of when I was obviously uncomfortable, and was always checking to see if I needed a break. We took two short breaks when I would need to stretch and continued to work relentlessly until we both tapped out. I still have many more sessions to go but I am extremely happy already. I would recommend this shop, and Steve to anyone looking for a fantastic tattoo experience with professional and skilled artists. Even if you aren’t looking for cartoon or illustrative work, there are other artists in the shop that are equally as kind. The only con I have is parking, but that is no fault to the shop itself. 10/10 to triple moon and all the artists, and Katlin for answering all my annoying questions whenever I had them.-Aubrey Sanchez-Rojas

Steve did a fantastic cover-up today. It’s better than I hoped for, I can’t wait to see the fade effect once it’s healed.

Ive been going to Candice for a few years now and love her! Shes able to take my pretty sparse ideas and make them awesome... so much so that people randomly come up to me and compliment her work all the time!

My favorite artist is here, (Steve). Queer friendly and some of the nicest people Ive met in the tattoo world.

Very professional shop that takes pride in their work so you get the best tattoo possible. I came in to get my first tattoo and Steve exceeded my expectations with the quality. I definitely will be coming back in the future!

Scheduled three days in advance. When I get there Jason had taken a walk-in ahead of me. Said it would be 45 minute wait. An hour and forty-five minutes later, still not done. Very unprofessional. Will never come here again.

I’m on my 4th tattoo from Jaq and I cannot recommend her and this shop enough to everyone I know, especially if it’s your first tattoo or you previously had a bad experience. She cares so much about making the process as safe and comfortable as possible for every client, and that care comes through in every single step. Thank you so much and I’ll definitely be back :)

I had heard ‘Triple Moon Tattoo’ a few times in the 4 years I’ve lived in the area. Just putting feelers out for the next time I was moved to get a tattoo. I’ve been getting tattooed for almost 25 years. Totaling 7-8 tattoos. All of them with great meaning to me. When the need came last month I drove straight to Triple Moon. As soon as I walked In I felt the energy of the shop.I was greeted by Connelly the newest artist on their team. I told her a very basic description what I wanted. Much more important I told her why. After just a couple mins I knew this was a true artist and she could translate this feeling for me. I promised her that I’d let her tattoo exactly the design she came up with without any change from me. When I returned the next day her design captured the emotion just as id conveyed. And the artwork was so impressive. As promised her creation is on my arm now with no alteration from me.If you’re looking to choose a tattoo off a wall this is not the place for you. However, if you are looking for the true artist then go see the Tattooist at Triple Moon Tattoo. Thank you, Connelly.

This shop is incomparable, its an inclusive place to get work done at combined with a warm atmosphere that helps you feel welcome. Everyone working there, either artist or counter, are professional and encouraging. Whether youre looking to get something intense/large or just something small, Triple Moon Tattoo is the place Id recommend.

Love, love, love! Candice has been my artist for years. She is absolutely amazing. I beyond highly recommend her. Check out her Instagram @triplemoontattoo !

Candice is an incredible talent! She is the best and the last artist I will ever go to. I could not be happier with the work shes done for me!

My friends and I were in town for training at a new store and we all wanted a small tattoo while we were there - Triple Moon Tattoo was so kind and patient with us !!! Everyone’s tattoos came out beautifully and it was such a good experience. Very clean, fun environment, and kind talented people. Thank you !!!

Marco is the most proficient and least painful tattoo artist I have ever experienced! The shop is private, quiet, convenient, clean and spacious with lots of great art to peruse. Best!

Clean! Organized! Cool & Funky shop! Connelly was stellar, she took what I wanted and put her artistic flare on it to give me an awesome rework! Im in love with my piece!

I didnt mean to hit one star I ment to hit 5 stars I hear its a great place. To get tattooed. I would love to get one there.

Steve is the man. No appointment, walked in and they had me in the chair in under 45 min. Art is stunning and they had a rad playlist.

I might be biased, but my wife is amazing. I trust her so much I married her! Steve seems pretty rad too.

Both Candice and Steve are both mega talented and awesome to work woth! I wont go anywhere else.

Snagged a walk-in with Steve for my first tattoo. Great experience, and I look forward to coming back!
