Since stepping into the world of Esthetics in 2020, I have expanded my expertise to include body tattooing, a craft I've been passionately pursuing since 2022.

A forever learner at heart, I am constantly seeking to enhance my skills and knowledge.

Resident Tattoo Artist
Justine
A fine line tattoo artist focusing on black and greys since 2023, I moved away from my small hometown in Vancouver Island as a young adult in hopes to find more opportunity to follow my passions - art and tattoos. This industry is one where you are continuously learning and expanding and I am so excited to continue that path of growth as my career advances.
My inspiration comes from the things that mean the most in my life; my loved ones, nature and exploring the world. I've been drawing and have had a passion for art for as long as I can remember thanks to my talented father and grandmother, and my creative and adventurous personality made me fall in love with tattoos at a young age and I have never imagined myself pursuing any other career. As a fine artist, I specialized in ink drawings, stippling and nature illustrations; including florals, mountains, and botanicals, which I have transferred into my tattoo career and continue to be the style I enjoy creating the most.
There is a lot of excitement and determination that goes into chasing your dreams and I cannot wait to see where it continues to take me.

Spray Tan Artist
Gabi
I have lived in the Maple Ridge / Pitt Meadows area my entire life and am happily married, expecting our first child in summer 2024. As an animal lover who enjoys sunsets, travel, and staying active, I also have a passion for country music and culinary delights.
I founded @goldenhunnitans after a year of contemplation, inspired by my long-time love for spray tans and the confidence they bring. With a family history of skin cancer, I’ve become a strong advocate for safe sun practices, emphasizing the dangers of tanning beds and excessive sun exposure.
Spray tanning has evolved significantly, and I am committed to demonstrating that it can achieve a natural and beautiful look. I look forward to helping you feel confident and radiant for your next vacation, special event, or any occasion where you need a boost.

Resident Tattoo Artist
Lexi
While having previously worked a career in dentistry and film, nothing truly holds my heart the same way art does. Since I was little I have always wanted to be an artist, and I was lucky enough to start that journey in 2020. I completed my apprenticeship in 2023 and I couldn’t be happier to continue doing what I do and connecting with clients. When I’m not tattooing you can usually find me crocheting, watching true crime documentaries, or thrift shopping with my one year old. Im a new mom and I’m lucky enough to be able to dedicate time to my child and my passion. Im pretty chatty but can also accommodate a quieter appointment too. I I specialize in neotraditional and fine line work.

Resident Tattoo Artist
Kat
After two decades of globe-trotting with my partner, I found myself grappling with my mental health and in search of a creative outlet. That’s when a friend introduced me to Cosmetic Tattooing. As a body art enthusiast, I was familiar with this vibrant industry and thought it could be a fantastic way to connect with others and infuse my life with positivity.
Since 2019, I’ve been specializing in brows, particularly Nano brows since 2023. It’s been a joy to forge genuine connections with some of the kindest souls out there. In 2022, I also took some time to navigate the beautiful chaos of motherhood, and once I found my footing, I was ready to elevate my passion for art and tattooing. Lately, I’ve been diving into small line work and script, diligently expanding my portfolio and skillset. I can’t wait to see where this exciting journey leads me next!
A few fun facts about me:
I like my coffee like I like my wardrobe… black.
I’ve been playing ice hockey since I was 11.
My favorite travel destination so far? Japan!

Medical Aesthetician
Louise
When I created The Suite in 2017, I deeply felt the need to have a space that was body positive, and comfortable for all your esthetic needs. Having been over 450lbs in my life, I had always felt slightly ashamed or embarrassed when I would go get my own hair removal done, these feelings were and are in the forefront of my mind when I am working. Because of my experiences, I strive to make each person feel comfortable and at ease in my presence.
I specialize in Sugaring Hair Removal, Customized Facials, Dermaplaning, Scar Therapy, Microneedling, Hair Rejuvenation, Lash Extensions, and Brow & Lash Tinting.

Resident Tattoo Artist
Justina
Tattoos, to me, are more than art—they’re stories, memories, and personal expressions. My journey began with a deep love for all forms of creativity, from illustration to fashion and special effects makeup. I specialize in an illustrative style but am always evolving as an artist.
Beyond tattooing, I’m a boy mom with a background in lash artistry and beauty services, blending creativity with precision to help clients feel confident. Whether it’s a custom design or a spontaneous flash piece, I pour my heart into every tattoo. I believe every mark we leave—on skin or in life—should be intentional, beautiful, and lasting.
My goal is to create a safe space where people feel comfortable, heard, and walk away with art they’ll cherish forever. Let’s create something unforgettable together!
