Sarah Mitchell stood nervously in front of the mirror contemplating the tattoo design she’d dreamed of wearing for years. Like many first-time tattoo clients, her excitement was tempered by uncertainty: would the design complement her shoulder as she imagined? Before she could further doubt, she decided to give PRIC’D a try, and to her surprise, this decision changed her uncertainty into confidence through the platform’s innovative pre-visualization technology.

Introducing a New Tattoo Experience

Many people find that getting a tattoo that doesn’t meet their expectations can be a devastating experience, both emotionally and financially. Many individuals spend months, sometimes years, planning their perfect design, only to be left with permanent artwork that fails to capture their vision. Clients often feel disappointed due to misaligned placement, poor consultation, or designs that don’t translate well from paper to skin.

Entrepreneur Kayhan Kiani saw this challenge and hopes to change this experience. Under his leadership, Kiani introduced PRIC’D, a platform streamlining the traditional tattoo consultation process by eliminating design uncertainty and lengthy waiting times through advanced technology.

Clients can easily upload their tattoo designs, visualize them directly on a digital 3D model that matches their unique skin tone, and preview exactly how the artwork will appear on their body.

With this interactive 3D tattoo preview, clients have the flexibility to proceed, request specific adjustments, or explore entirely new design options. Once the final design is chosen, they receive an instant, accurate quote and can immediately book their appointment—all within the same seamless platform.

“Many clients come to us with beautiful ideas but are hesitant about committing to permanent body art without seeing how it will look on their specific body type and placement,” explains Kiani. “PRIC’D’s pre-visualization technology eliminates this uncertainty, giving clients the confidence to proceed with their dream tattoos.”

Kiani believes that when the tattoo industry combines advanced technology with artistic excellence and unwavering professional standards, it creates an experience that transforms how people approach body art.

A Personalized Approach to Body Art

PRIC’D’s pre-visualization service is part of Kiani’s comprehensive consultation process under its premier tattoo company, INK’D London. The studio balances technological innovation with artistic proficiency. Its specialized artists, including experts in realism, portraits, blackwork, fine line work, and even Japanese Neo-Trad, use this technology to help clients refine their design choices and placement options.

When clients visit INK’D London, they work closely with dedicated consultants who guide them through the design process. With PRIC’D’s real-time size, placement, and orientation adjustments, clients can confirm that each tattoo suits the client’s body and vision. Because of this, high-profile clients have made INK’D London their home, and different artist collaborations have been featured there.

Kiani mentions, “Getting a tattoo should be a fun and seamless experience. We at INK’D, London, with our new platform, PRIC’D, eliminate all the what-ifs so our clients leave the shop satisfied with their new tattoos.”

Expanding the Best Tattoo Excellence Globally

This new pre-visualization tattoo technology represents Kiani’s commitment to establishing INK’D London as a global leader in body art. Allowing clients to preview their tattoo designs directly on their skin before any permanent ink is applied addresses a common concern among tattoo enthusiasts and first-timers. This technology enhances client confidence and showcases how INK’D London and PRIC’D merge unconventional solutions with traditional artistry.

Kiani mentions, “INK’D London with PRIC’D aim to redefine the perception of tattoos as part of self-expression and fashion globally by setting consistent quality standards in all of our procedures and introducing professional tattoo services to regions where they were previously unavailable.”

Why Toba Ogunremi Believes High-Performing Teams Start with Belonging, Not Pressure

Most teams don’t fall apart all at once. It happens slowly, missed conversations, quiet disengagement, people doing what’s required but nothing more.

Toba Ogunremi has spent years working inside care environments where that kind of shift is easy to miss until it starts affecting everything. Leading operations at Samorem Care in the UK, he has seen how systems can appear stable on the surface while teams underneath struggle to stay connected to their work.

One experience early in his career changed how he looks at leadership entirely.

He had taken over a team that wasn’t in crisis, but it wasn’t working well either. The people receiving care were safe, but they weren’t thriving. The same was true for the staff. There was no urgency, no energy, just routine.

The usual solution would have been to tighten control by setting new targets, increasing supervision, and creating performance plans. He didn’t do any of that.

“I started with conversations,” he says. “Real ones. Not rushed, not formal.”

One by one, he spoke to each team member. What came out wasn’t frustration with the job itself, but something quieter and harder to spot.

“They weren’t disengaged because they didn’t care,” he explains. “They were disengaged because they felt unseen.”

No one had asked what they thought. No one had taken the time to understand how they were coping. Over time, that absence had turned into distance. That moment stayed with him. It shaped how he leads today.

His approach is simple, but not always easy to apply: people perform better when they feel they belong.

He believes high performance usually comes when people feel like they genuinely belong and know that what they do actually matters.

In healthcare, where pressure is constant and expectations are high, this idea can sound secondary. The focus is often on outcomes, compliance, and efficiency. Toba doesn’t dismiss those things, but he questions what happens when they become the only focus.

Even when all the processes are in place, if the people delivering the care feel disconnected, it eventually reflects in the quality of the work.

At Samorem Care, this thinking shows up in small but consistent ways. Recruitment is not just about experience. It’s about how someone responds to people, how they handle pressure, and how they communicate. Once they are in, the focus shifts to keeping teams stable and supported, rather than constantly rotating staff or reacting only when something goes wrong. He also pays attention to how leaders show up day to day.

According to him, leadership is not just about giving direction; it’s about being present enough to understand what your team actually needs.

That presence matters more in care than in most industries. The work is demanding, often emotional, and not always recognised for what it takes. When teams feel stretched or overlooked, it affects how they interact with the people they support.

For Toba, resilience is less about constant pressure and more about creating a work environment where people can do their jobs well without burning out. In his view, strong teams are not just coping; they are supported enough to stay clear-headed and consistent in their work.

His background outside healthcare still shapes how he leads. Having worked in sales and communications, he understands how important it is to read people and build trust. In healthcare, though, the impact is far more direct, as decisions affect someone’s everyday life, not just an outcome on paper.

That shift makes leadership more personal. Teams need more than instructions; they need stability, clarity, and a sense that they are understood. What defines Toba Ogunremi’s approach is its simplicity. He focuses on being consistent, listening carefully, and addressing issues early rather than reacting late.

In the end, his belief is straightforward: teams perform better not because they are pushed harder, but because they feel valued and part of something that works.
