Missing Something?  Here's your NIPPLEBACK!

I was missing something - it was so hard to face my body after losing my breasts.  My subconscious mind just couldn't make sense of it.  I really didn't know what I lost till it was gone... but I knew there had to be a simple solution...

​

Hi, I'm Stacie-Rae, the founder and creator of NIPPLEBACKS Temporary Areola Tattoos.  Also the Founder of the A.R.T. of Areola Restorative Tattoo.

​

I have been drawing my entire life, and tattooing professionally for almost 15 years when cancer came into my life.  When I faced my own prophylactic mastectomy after a BRCA1+ diagnosis and the finding of a 'large mass' - I realized my true calling and changed my entire career focus.

​

I do mastectomy tattooing and I teach tattooists how to do Artistic Areola Restoration.  When I was writing my first book on the topic, I drew a bunch of different Nipple Portraits to show them how its done.  Once those drawings were made digital to print the book, an idea struck me!

​

Temporary Tattoos!!! I emailed a couple of my new nipple designs to a manufacturer and thus began NIPPLEBACKS!  I went on to acquire the design patent for all of Canada, the US, U.K. and Europe!!  These are the first and only of their kind in the world!

​

I hope you love them as much as I do and they help you feel beautiful in a way that you forgot you could.  Looking in that mirror, my hope for you is that you see the beauty that was always there - the part that your brain is so used to seeing.  Those '2 little circles' really do make all the difference some days.  Here's to your wholeness!
