More than ink.
It's intention.

I opened Courtney Marie Tattoos because I believe a tattoo should mean something — not just look good. Every line, every shade, every session is guided by respect for your body and your story.

Located in the heart of Opelika, our studio is a space where first-timers feel welcome and collectors feel at home. No judgment. No rush. Just honest work, clean needles, and an artist who actually listens.

Whether you're coming in for your first small piece or planning a full sleeve that will take months — I'm here to make sure you walk out feeling exactly how you imagined.

01

Custom by Design

Every tattoo is drawn specifically for you — your anatomy, your skin tone, your vision.

02

Sterile & Safe

Single-use needles, hospital-grade sterilization, and a studio that meets the highest standards.

03

Your Comfort Matters

Breaks, snacks, music you choose — this isn't a factory. You're a person, not a appointment slot.

Don't take our
word for it

I was nervous about my first tattoo and Courtney made me feel completely at ease. She listened to exactly what I wanted and the result was even better than I imagined. My studio in Opelika is lucky to have her.

— Sarah M.

Had a cover-up done after years of regret over a bad tattoo from somewhere else. Courtney took the time to understand what I wanted and transformed it into something I'm genuinely proud to show off.

— Marcus D.

The attention to detail is unreal. My floral sleeve took three sessions and every single petal was perfect. The studio is clean, the vibe is chill, and I left feeling like family. 100% recommend.

— Jenna L.

Things you
might wonder

Can't find what you're looking for? Just call or text us — we'd rather answer directly than guess.

Call Us Directly

Appointments are preferred so we can give you our full attention, but walk-ins are welcome when there's availability. For custom work or larger pieces, booking ahead is essential.

Pricing depends on size, detail, and placement. We offer a free consultation where we'll discuss your idea and give you an honest estimate before anything gets under the needle.

Every tattoo involves some discomfort — it varies by location and your pain threshold. We'll talk about what to expect for your specific piece and make sure you're comfortable throughout.

We provide detailed aftercare instructions with every session. In short: keep it clean, moisturized, and out of direct sun. We'll check in with you to make sure it's healing properly.

You must be 18 years or older with valid government-issued ID. No exceptions — this is both a legal requirement and a safety standard we take seriously.

Absolutely — if it helps you feel more comfortable, bring someone. We just ask that they stay seated and respect the workspace so we can do our best work.
