Sassy Studio is an appointment-only beauty studio on Cambridge Street in Richmond, specialising in custom spray tans and safe, sterile body piercing. With more than eight years of experience in flawless spray tanning, the studio uses BLACK MAGIC solutions to create a custom tan to suit every skin tone — that sun-kissed, confidence-boosting glow without the sun damage. Whether it's a tan for a special event or just a little self-care, the aim is the same: you leave looking radiant and feeling confident.
Body piercing is done just as carefully. Piercings take place in a hygienic room designed specifically for the purpose, and an onsite autoclave machine ensures all equipment and jewellery are fully sterilised — because your safety is just as important as your style.
Professional, fun and always flawless is the Sassy Studio way. Book by phone or email, arrive prepped using the studio's pre-tan guide, and let the glow-up magic begin.
Tucked away on Cambridge Street in Richmond, Sassy Studio is a small beauty studio with a clear sense of who it is and what it does. For more than eight years it has specialised in spray tanning, building its service around custom, natural-looking colour that delivers that sun-kissed, confidence-boosting glow — minus the sun damage. Alongside tanning, the studio offers safe, sterile body piercing in a hygienic room built for the purpose. The result is a go-to local spot for anyone after a flawless tan or a fresh piercing, delivered with what the studio calls a professional service, a fun atmosphere, and results you'll love.
No two skin tones take colour the same way, and that thinking sits behind every appointment at Sassy Studio. Rather than a one-size-fits-all spray, every tan here is a custom tan. The studio works with BLACK MAGIC solutions, a professional tanning range with a formula to suit every skin tone, so your colour is matched to you rather than pulled off a shelf.
That flexibility matters whether you are preparing for a special event or simply carving out a little self-care time. Sassy Studio describes itself as the place for glow-up magic in either situation — a boost of radiance and confidence for anyone who wants to look and feel their best. With over eight years of hands-on experience behind every spray, clients can relax knowing their tan is in practiced hands.
Sassy Studio's other specialty is body piercing, and safety sits at the heart of how it's done. Piercings are performed in a hygienic room designed specifically for piercing — not an afterthought corner, but a space set up properly for the job.
Behind the scenes, an onsite autoclave machine ensures that all equipment and jewellery are fully sterilised. The studio puts it simply: your safety is just as important as your style. For anyone who has put off a piercing because of hygiene worries, that commitment to sterile practice offers real reassurance before you ever sit down in the chair.
Sassy Studio operates by appointment, so every visit is a dedicated time slot rather than a walk-in wait. Booking is straightforward: phone 0226824021, email sasha@sassystudio.co.nz, or get in touch through the studio's Facebook page. You'll find the studio at 4 Cambridge Street, Richmond 7020.
First-time tanners are well looked after, too. The studio's website includes a guide on what to do before having a spray tan, so you can arrive prepped and get the best from your appointment. Curious about past clients' experiences? Reviews are easy to find through a quick Google search for Sassy Studio.
Because the studio is appointment-based and personally run, your time slot is yours alone — focused attention on getting your tan or piercing exactly right, with no rushed turnaround.
Timing and prep go a long way with any tan. If you have a special event on the horizon, it makes sense to lock in your appointment early so your preferred time is secured. Before your session, follow the pre-tan guidance the studio provides — arriving with your skin ready helps the custom BLACK MAGIC blend go on evenly and leave you looking radiant.
Professional. Fun. Always flawless. That's the motto the studio works by, and it comes through in the details: custom-blended colour, sterilised equipment, a dedicated hygienic piercing room, and a warm, personal one-to-one approach that only an appointment-based studio can offer.
The studio's owner sums up the welcome simply: they look forward to welcoming you and helping you feel your absolute best, inside and out — let's glow and grow together. Whether you're a Richmond local after a regular glow-up, getting event-ready, or considering a fresh piercing done properly, Sassy Studio is set up to send you out the door looking radiant and feeling confident.
