Reply from Akome Skinz
Thank you means a lot. I appreciate it.
What do you love most about your job?
What I LOVE most about my job is the freedom my clients give me to express my creativity on the most visible canvas in the world ‘the skin’.
I never know what to expect however, I am in a career that places a smile on my face daily.
“Who do you know, who would not be happy to draw on people for a living.”
What inspired you to start your own business?
The inspiration to start on my own was difficult however, there was no right time. When you feel you have to jump out of a plane without a parachute, that is your spirit instructing you to walk in faith as well as knowing your skills are at a level to start in business.
My creative artistry has now reached a level, for me to perform at my highest possible performance. Introducing my art and the artistic genres I love to a wider/larger audience. Whilst on this journey meeting new people and sharing my love for art in my craft of tattooing.
Why should our clients choose you?
Clients should choose me as I am an artist that focuses directly on delivering a high quality service. Experience is everything, so it is important not only to receive a fantastic piece of art in the form of a great tattoo. However, the experience the client will have with me whilst getting tattooed. I am a down to earth person with a great sense of humour, most importantly I take my art and my artistry extremely seriously.

Booking enquiries can be performed on the booking form located on my website. Please fill out the form with the required details, I will be in contact in due time. Due to the nature of my work please allow at least 48 hours for a response, at times could be longer due to my diary schedule.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
During this time I encourage my clients to attend their appointment date alone. If the client is travelling with someone unfortunately, they will not be able to join the client during the tattooing process. This is to avoid any transmissions of germs in the tattooing area.
If the client is experiencing any symptoms related to Covid-19, please inform me a week or at the latest 48 hours before. Failure to do so, will result in losing the ability to reschedule your appointment. Deposits are non refundable.
