Brooklyn talks about her new studio ‘4everink’ in Charlotte NC and her passion: express yourself through body art.
Brooklyn just opened a brand new studio, 4 experienced tattoo artists, a piercer and a permanent make-up specialist. Yes: studio, not store, parlor or shop. ‘Art can be everything; just how you see it’.
Art & ink is the driving force for Brooklyn (yes, from the burro) who has 50+ tattoos herself. All styles, clear and detailed tatts dominate.
A laid back (Bob Marley all over), dread locked entrepreneur who entered the inked community 12 years ago as studio owner when tattoos were still mainly counter culture. Brooklyn is not a tattoo artist herself but wanted to create an environment for experienced artists with minimal 5+ years experience, artistic and great skills.
According to Brooklyn ‘taking time to consult on art is important; especially virgin canvasses sometimes have crazy ideas, they might regret a few years later’. So consultation is important.
She made headlines as one of the very first openly lesbians in the inked community advocating free for all. No closets for Brooklyn.
But no specific LGBT tattoos either: art is individual and not an poster or membership card.
4everink wants to ink quality, original designs for all walks of life; ‘you imagine it, we advise and realize’ is the attitude. That’s how TB met her: ink is forever and needs to be maintained. TATTOO BOOSTER is her favorite: organic, vegan, colors pop and a little goes a long way.
A permanent make up specialist is a relative rare phenomena in a inked parlor -sorry, studio- but Brooklyn feels that it’s time to cater to those who prefers permanent make up, in a professional environment.
