This is me ♥️

#HelloLemon8 #tattoo #artist #toronto #thisisme

2025/4/22 Edited to

Being a tattoo artist without tattoos is unusual, and I've encountered many questions and judgments about it. My heart condition means I must avoid risks like infections, which could be life-threatening. This reality shapes my choices and keeps me cautious. Despite waiting for another heart surgery, tattooing has given me purpose and strength. I focus on expressing myself and touching others through my art rather than my appearance. It’s important to remember that people often hide stories behind their looks. For anyone facing health issues or feeling out of place, I want to say: don’t let your challenges define or limit you. Find your passion, let your work speak, and be proud of who you are inside. Tattooing saved me not just as a career but as a way to connect and heal.
