(fee applied to your transformational tattoo experience)
Ink & Release is a sacred, trauma-informed INKPlay tattoo experience designed to support your journey of body reclamation, inner child healing, grief processing, ancestral veneration, and rite of passage. Rooted in African-centered spiritual traditions and healing practices, Ink Therapy is more than ink on skin—this is healing work.
Whether you're marking a new chapter, honoring your lineage, or seeking a deeper sense of wholeness, Ink Therapy offers a personalized and ceremonial approach to tattooing that holds space for your story, your spirit, and your sovereignty.
Why Work With Imani?
Because she turned her pain into power - and her tattoos are proof.
Imani is not just a master tattoo artist—she is a living testament to the healing power of ink. Her tattoo journey began as an act of survival, trading self-harm for sacred adornment. When life felt unbearable, she chose tattooing over cutting—reclaiming her body, her story, and her spirit with every mark.
Through Ink Therapy, Imani now guides others through the same radical transformation. Her deeply personal, African-centered approach helps clients reclaim their bodies, honor their grief, and restore their joy through four powerful healing pathways:
Healing from trauma by making peace with your skin.
🕯️ Ancestral Veneration
Honoring those who came before with intentional markings.
💗 Inner Child Healing
Giving your younger self the care and voice they never had.
🌸 Rite of Passage
Marking major life transitions with reverence and ritual.
Imani doesn’t just tattoo—she listens, she witnesses, and she helps you return to yourself, one sacred line at a time.

Asali Says:
Soooooooo, I had NO idea what I was actually going to put on the table for Imani - I just know her work, trust her immensely and feel safe with her creative process. She's deep, intuitive and knows her craft! I feel like we have a special bond since she graced me with the gift of her work on my head. She literally can't get rid of me now!
