Student stories
Real people. Real results.
Noemy
Instagram"Do it scared — not 'what if I fail?' but 'what if I actually succeed?'"
For Noemy, joining the mentorship felt like living a dream she never thought she'd actually pursue. She went from imagining it to doing it — and found herself in a room full of artists for the first time in her life. Her advice: do it scared, but do it excited.
Reza
Instagram"If you have a dream and you don't pursue it, it's always going to be a dream — with regret on top of that dream."
Flew in from Vancouver and trained for 30 days in Mississauga with zero prior experience. He now works out of a private studio back in Vancouver.
Suzanne
Instagram"It's never too late to start. If you're too scared or just need a little push — this is your sign."
She knew since high school that she wanted to be a tattoo artist — but kept holding back. She finally took the leap, pushed through the long hours and mental breakdowns, and found it completely worth it. Now she wakes up every day excited to create.
Isaac
Instagram"If you think the price of failing is bad, the price of regret is a lot more."
Isaac decided that if no one else was going to go after what makes him happy, he would. Now he's setting up his machine to tattoo his very first client — proof of what's possible when you take the risk. The flexible studio hours made all the difference in getting him here.
"I doubted my life's purpose, tried many jobs, and still felt unfulfilled. After talking to friends and loved ones, I gave myself a second chance — to take a leap and pursue my dream of being an artist, this time with a much clearer mindset. I love that state of flow when creating. It feels like flying."
View on Instagram →"I've always wondered if I'd be able to do it. It was a tough road balancing this and a full-time job, but I can finally see the work starting to pay off — which is incredibly satisfying. I'm so happy I took the chance and committed to this."
View on Instagram →"I thought I failed the first time — but starting over is exciting, because now it's on my terms. After months of hard work, I'm officially back on skin. Truly the best mentor I could've asked for."
View on Instagram →"From opening up my machine, to learning how to stencil and practicing on fake skin — now pulling my first real line on someone. I couldn't be more grateful."
