Camouflage tattooing: a flexible career for mothers

Mothers starting a new chapter are one of the groups SKINEAV Academy was built for. Here is what that path can look like.

A career for mothers at SKINEAV, Vaughan

Many students at SKINEAV Academy are mothers: returning to work, changing careers, or building independence as single parents. Camouflage can be a skilled career you shape around your family.

Why it can fit family life

  • You can set your own hours and decide your own pricing
  • Appointments are scheduled, not walk-in
  • Many clients are mothers too, with stretch marks or C-section scars, and they value being understood

“In the beginning, your portfolio is everything. People need to see your work before they trust you with their skin.”

Evelyn Alvares Vega, SKINEAV Academy

What it takes

Skill first, then a portfolio, then clients. It is a real business, and it takes consistent effort to build. Read getting your first clients.
