I found Imani on Instagram back in 2018, while looking for artists that specialized in fine line, black skin, and adding color to black skin. I loved working with her so much and her aptitude and knowledge of black skin, tradition, and appreciation, that I dedicated my entire body to her, other than the original leg work I was seeking to have done. I have moved locations/states and been through many life changes, but what has remained consistent and even improved drastically is Imani’s work and speed.
