Tattoos By Charlene: Tattoos & Piercings

Tattoos By Charlene is a tattoo and piercing studio based in Johannesburg, South Africa, offering a full range of services from tiny fine-line pieces to bold statement work. The studio specializes in custom tattoos and cover-ups, thoughtfully designed around a client's story, existing ink and anatomy, alongside ready-to-book flash tattoo designs for those who want something beautiful without the custom-design wait. Black and grey and colour tattoo work sit alongside professional piercing services backed by quality jewellery and proper aftercare guidance. The studio also offers Jagua temporary tattoos, a needle-free, deep blue-black body art option for clients not ready for a permanent commitment.

Safety and hygiene are treated as a core part of the studio's approach, with professional tattoo and piercing procedures, appropriate protective equipment, sterile single-use needles, and careful cleaning and preparation of the working area. Clients are informed about the procedure, aftercare and studio requirements before work begins, with ongoing aftercare support once they leave. Charlene's team guides clients through choosing the right service, size and placement for their vision, whether they arrive with a fully formed idea or need help bringing one to life, making the experience feel personal and considered from consultation through to healing.
