About

Charlene Melissa is a studio in Tucson that combines fine line tattoos, bridal and event makeup, waxing and piercings under one roof. It is set inside Fusion Beauty Collective on East Grant Road, a short drive from the University of Arizona, TMC and Catalina Foothills. The studio describes itself as a safe, welcoming and judgment-free space.

Tattoos can be picked from flash sheets or designed custom with the artist. Consultations for custom work are complimentary for 20 minutes, and the $25 consultation fee is applied to the tattoo if you book it. Custom fine line pieces are booked in a two-hour slot for designs roughly 5 to 8 inches across, and the price varies by design.

Bridal work is done onsite, with the artist traveling to the chosen location, including destination weddings. Packages cover bride hair and makeup, bridal party hair and makeup, trials, spray tans, facials and tiny tattoos for wedding guests. Live fine line tattoos can also be offered at receptions from a customized flash sheet. Bridal inquiries go through a form that asks for the event date, the time you need to be ready and whether you want a tattoo artist at the reception.

Waxing covers the face, brows, arms, legs, underarms, bikini, back, chest and stomach, with many single-area options priced from $10 to $75. Brow services include waxing, tinting and a non-invasive brow lamination for fuller-looking brows. Makeup lessons run two hours and cover client questions and practice on one look, from full glam to daytime. Students and military personnel can ask about discounts.

The studio focuses on making each visit comfortable and pressure-free, with custom tattoo designs developed directly with the artist.

The studio describes its setting as safe, welcoming and judgment free.
