3D Nipple Areola Tattoo Training Course with Helen Aldous

YOU CAN LEARN FROM MY EXPERIENCE.

When my Mum got breast cancer in 2014 I was horrified at the quality of the semi-permanent nipple tattoos available. They were badly done, unrealistic, and faded away in weeks.

This poor quality service added to the trauma felt by those who had battled cancer. They were often left with a total lack of body confidence which impacted their mental health and relationships.

This spurred me on. I was determined that breast cancer survivors needed a better quality option that would be permanent and enable them to put the cancer journey behind them once and for all.

At the time this service wasn’t available in the UK so I determined to change that.

I was working as a decorative body art tattooist so I asked my tattoo clients for volunteers to help me offer this service. Many kind-hearted people stepped forward to help as they saw how important this work was for cancer survivors.

I created test nipple tattoos which I would then cover with a decorative tattoo.

Together with these generous people, I developed a set of techniques that allowed me to recreate the nipple as realistically as possible. Soon after I began to offer the realistic permanent nipple areola tattoo service I specialize in today. These specialist techniques evolved into my NipInk® Tattoo Method.

It took me a lot of trial and error with these volunteers to evolve my techniques to the quality I can create today. This is not something that you can practice on those who have gone through cancer.

When working with clients you need to be able to create a great result the first time, every time.

This 3D Nipple Areola Tattoo Training Masterclass enables you to learn directly from my experience so that you can create the best work possible for your clients without spending years trying to work it out for yourself by trial and error.

It’s a fast-track way to being able to create realistic and high-quality nipple and areola tattoos.

Testimonial

3D Nipple Areola Tattoo Training Masterclass 

I am a Clinical Nurse Specialist in breast reconstruction, working in the breast unit of a hospital in the north west.  Part of my role is nipple areola tattooing for patients who have lost their nipples due to treatment for breast cancer.  I completed a medical tattooing training course where the pigments used were semi-permanent and our patients had to re-attend on numerous occasions to have the tattoo done again. 

This was not a very good situation for patients wanting to move forward with their lives after cancer especially as they had to keep returning to the place where they were diagnosed.

I wondered if I would be able to change over to permanent ink and started googling tattoo artists and that’s how I found Helen.  Right from the moment I first contacted her she was so helpful.  She took time out of her working week on a couple of occasions to meet with me at her studio – which in itself is one of the most relaxing and calming spaces I have been in – so that she could review my work so far and give me an honest opinion as to whether I was of a standard where I could be trained in permanent ink.  Luckily for me I was.

I attended the training day and Helen had asked one of her clients if I could observe her tattooing her 3D nipple areola.  That for me was such an invaluable experience, watching an artist at work and being able to ask questions as she tattooed. 

It was also the little things such has how she set her trolley out, what she used, where she positioned herself and her client and also the interaction between them.

The rest of the day was spent 1 to 1, drawing nipples, colour matching, using her set up with ink and practice skin and the reasons why she used what she did.  She gave me advice on picking  new equipment and the inks and needles and aftercare. 

The manual she gave me was and still is my bible.  She has also been my mentor and responds so quickly to my questions and encourages me when I think I have not produced as good a result that I would have liked- her suggestions are always sensible and the right way to move forward and improve.

To anyone tattooing with semi-permanent pigments and looking to improve their practice and their patients/clients experience I recommend Helen’s training masterclass 100%, you will not fail to benefit from it. 

She is such a wonderfully calm and patient lady who is passionate about providing the best results she can for her clients and she wants to pass on her experience and knowledge to people like myself so that we can do the same for our patients/clients.
