The receptionist was super lovely and very informative on pricing and options for jewelry. Jennifer was our piercer and she was amazing.

It was a very pleasant atmosphere. Vibes 10/10. Staff 100/10

My best friend and I received matching tattoos here a couple of years ago before I was a Yelper!…read more Studio 42 is a unique little tattoo and piercing shop located in Memphis. The artists there are awesome! I've personally only been tattooed by Garrett but everyone else's work looks amazing as well. Everyone was super welcoming and we were in and out with tattoos we loved! Pro tip: the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the parking lot is small, poorly lit, and pretty sketchy after dark. Bring a friend with you if you're skittish!

Between me and my husband, we've had 6 tattoos done here (5 by Austin and 1 by Breanna) and 1 piercing (by Mark) and we couldn't be happier with how they look and the overall great service and experience we always have while we are there. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick tour and meeting some of the artists. They are also very active on Facebook and Instagram and post a lot of pictures of the current tattoos each artist has done and any specials they have going on.

I have been tattooed six times now by five different artists in four different shops over the…read morecourse of nearly 28 years. Most recently I used Sunshine Tattoo Studio initially via walk-in with my family. My daughters and I had been planning a Dad and Daughters tattoo for several years and we took advantage of all three of us in Memphis over the holidays (Dec '23). We were paired with Rayne Laughlin and we could not have been more lucky! The quality of her work was top notch and I will attach pictures of our work. However, the reason where she really shone was her people skills. It was my youngest's first tattoo and she was super nervous. Rayne took the time to talk with her, answered her questions and addressed her fear. During the tattoo she over-explained every move she made to ensure my daughter was comfortable. My eldest had been tattooed twice and Rayne exhibited the same level of care with her as she did with my youngest! In fact, Rayne was so comforting my wife decided to pull the trigger on her first tattoo, one she had been contemplating for a couple of years, that night! Yep, same level of care and concern with her. I was so impressed with Rayne and the operation of Sunshine in general that I went back a little over a month later and talked with her about a tattoo I've been contemplating for almost seven and a half years! It just so happened to be a style she loved and showed me some of her similar work. It didn't take long to convince me, given my previous experience with her and the facility so we booked it. My latest tattoo was fairly complex and it took a solid 4+ hours to complete it. Again, she took her time to over explain everything and was constantly checking with me to make sure I was okay. I don't know if I'll get any more tattoos as I said this last one was going to be my last (I said that 7 years ago when it was drawn) but I ended up getting a simple one in between so, who knows! What I do know is, I will definitely consult with Rayne first!

His…read morepresence was super positive, warm, and friendly, and when I told him the idea for my tattoo, he was able to interpret my thoughts well. Yesterday was the big reveal for my tattoo and his ability to interpret what I wanted onto paper and then skin was incredible. It is a floral piece and it is BEAUTIFUL. My tattoo lasted four hours and during that time, Jordan must have ascertained that I do better with talking because we held a conversation for four hours with no issues. He is hilarious, easy going, and like a best friend you haven't seen in a long time and you just picked right back where you left off. He is able to educate in a way that is not overly technical, and overall he is a positive, cool dude. 10 out 10 would recommend, 5 gold stars from me! Other positives: The lady at the front desk was also SUPER nice and easy going. Brent, one of the owners, and Alton, were also pretty cool dudes too. Love the BCT vibe. Can't wait to get my next tattoo!
