While speaking in an exclusive interview with PUNCH Newspaper, a young entrepreneur and Lagos-based tattooist, Demehin Chibuzor, who runs one of the biggest tattoo studios in Lagos known as Shodes Tattoos, revealed that he has seen the good and bad sides of the job since he started seven years ago.

 

He revealed that apart from the success he has enjoyed in the business of inking images and inscriptions on the bodies of clients, it is in servicing females with an insatiable desire to have tattoos on their boobs, bums and even private parts that has presented him with one of the biggest dilemmas.

 

The young man disclosed that the hazards that come along with some requests sometimes make the job a bit tough.

 

He said; “I have been in this business for seven years and I can tell you that if you are not disciplined, you could lose your mind especially with the way some female clients offer you their bodies.

 

“Though tattoos can be done on any part of the body, most female clients specially demand for such to be done on their boobs, bums and even private parts. Once they tell me what they want, I cannot turn them down because that is their choice.

 

“I have done several tattoos for female clients in those very private areas of the body and I can say it is no longer a strange thing to me. But I won’t deny the fact that as a man, I have been aroused after being confronted with such temptation.

 

“As a person, I have had several experiences of female clients inviting me over to their places for fun after I did nice tattoos for them maybe on their boobs, bums and thighs.

 

“But because of the passion I have for the job, I try not to be distracted. The desire to do a good job helps take my mind off such distractions. The truth is that if you are not professional about the whole thing, you could lose your respect and money in the process. The experience with female clients who want this type of service has been eye-opening indeed,” he added.

 

When asked if he charges a special amount to have the boobs, bums or private parts of a female client tattooed, Chibuzor said that there are a number of factors which determine the amount he charges for each work.

 

He said; “It is the same price for any part of the body. Well, I don’t know for the others, but for me I don’t charge extra for doing tattoos in private areas of the body.

 

“The size and nature of each tattoo dictates its price. Most clients prefer you to come to their house. They feel they’ll have the comfort they need around them while doing it. These are the factors that basically determine how much we charge for each job,” he said.

 

Another tattooist identified as Olaniyi Oladipupo, who owns Shahole Tattoos, also revealed how he has had to fend off temptations of all kinds from female clients since going into the business about eight years ago.

 

Apart from the growing demand for bum, boobs and private organ tattoos that he gets on a weekly basis, the free offers for s*x that comes along is something he reckons could derail even a good man if not very careful.

 

He said that he has managed to keep his sanity only through the grace of God. “Apart from the boobs, bums and private parts, a lot of ladies also like to have tattoos on their legs.”

 

“It is not easy seeing all these special parts of the body without sometimes being aroused. But even when these female clients deliberately seduce me while working on them; I try to stay calm because I know that is the only way I can get a good job done.

 

“Part of the ways I overcome such temptations is to gist with such ladies especially on topics that they really like. Sometimes I sing for them as well just to calm them down because many of them could be wild when they also get aroused as you are working on them. As a matter of fact, sometimes I cover those seductive parts with towel just to get my mind off it.

 

“As if that is not enough, some of these female clients who demand for these special tattoos on their bums, boobs and private parts, also invite me to hotels and their houses for s*x but I really don’t honour such because a lady could easily claim that you want to r*pe her. I have had several experiences of female clients forcing themselves on me, so I am careful how I relate with them.

 

“Even though they can be interesting to work with, one has to be wise about it. I just take extra caution whenever I am dealing with a female client,” he said.

 

According to Olaniyi, he also does genital piercings, a good tattoo starts from N10, 000 upwards but that each is priced based on its design, size and skills required to execute it, adding that he gets at least 10 demands for such special tattoos by ladies on a weekly basis.

 

“The demand for boobs, bum and private parts tattoos is indeed quite high among female clients. I have been in the business for quite some time but the way ladies are requesting for it baffles even those of us in the business,” he said.

 

Confirming the situation, another prominent tattoo artists in Lagos, King Walker popularly known as Shatta Ink, said that indeed temptation from female clients wanting attention in private ‘areas’ of the body is rife, adding that he has had to learn a lot of discipline to avoid being victim of such seduction and temptation.

 

According to the Jamaican-Liberian operating around the Ajah area of Lagos, as lucrative as the job appears to be, it is filled with hazards that could end even the most thriving career.

 

“Tattoo business is a very lucrative one but there are plenty of hazards and one of them is constant encounter with seduction and temptation from female clients,” he explained.

 

“One of the rules of doing tattoos on female private areas is that you must not be someone who loves s*x too much. As a person, once these ladies seduce me or demand for s*x, I simply tell them that I am gay just to scare them. This is one of the ways I have been able to deal with this situation.

 

“There are sensitive parts of the body that you can touch while doing the tattoo and the female client would get aroused. So, you have to avoid touching those areas as much as possible,” he said.

 

Asked what he thinks is responsible for the growing demand for these special kinds of tattoos among most young women in the society, Walker reeled out a number of reasons.

 

“From my experience as a professional in the business, I have realised that many ladies are doing tattoos on the boobs, bums and private parts to look more attractive to men.

 

“Also, some are doing it to cover stretch marks and other spots on their bodies. The reasons differ but most do it just to ensure that men don’t look elsewhere after having the privilege to see those very private areas of their bodies,” he said.

 

The experience has not been different for arguably one of the biggest tattoo artists in the country, Bizzyaski. The Olabisi Onabanjo University graduate, who operates mostly from the Ikeja area of Lagos and boasts of a rich clientele, said that only professionalism has helped him overcome the temptation he constantly comes across in the course of doing his job.

 

“Truthfully, there are times you get aroused and your body moves in the course of doing tattoos on those very delicate parts of a woman’s body but my focus is always on doing a perfect job; so I can handle it very well. It indeed takes a lot of professionalism to be able to deal with the situation,” he said.
