TaT2slim

About me:

Tat2slim founder and owner of Tat2slim Ink. might appear to be a newcomer who just burst onto the tattoo scene causing a stir in one of Brooklyn’s most exciting up and coming trendy neighborhood. But the truth is Tat2slim born Reuben Kashi in the mid- 80’s is a Clinton Hill native who has been artistically expressing himself since a very young age. His Mom, a local artist as well pushed him to take art classes through out his childhood at the renowned Pratt Institute. At the age of 14 he got his first tattoo and instantly became hooked on this unique art form. He didn’t know at that time what affect his love for tattoos would have on his life. But he knew he wasn’t afraid to be different and stand out from the crowd. Wikepedia says the definition of an artist is wide-ranging and covers a broad spectrum of activities to do with creating art. Since his teens years Tat2slim has been expressing himself artistically through music, his eccentric style of dress and designing tattoos images exclusively for himself. Often strangers would stop him on the street to compliment him on one of his tattoos and it was at this time, near his 21st birthday that he decided he could make a living as a tattoo artist. At this time he already had 14 tattoos and was very familiar with the tattoo process. He took the test for the tattoo license and passed with flying colors on his first try. Tat2slim does the majority of his business out of his Brownstone home located in downtown Brooklyn an area that has been undergoing a renaissance of sort over the past few years. The “Tat2slim experience” is different from a typical visit to NYC’s other tattoo parlors because of the personal attention given to each of his clients. The clients trust his opinion because his own tattoos are so visually appealing. Although the act of getting a tattoo is uncomfortable the comfortable surroundings are an added bonus.
