Our Story
I-Kandy opened its doors on Salt Lane in April of 2005. The concept was simple – a friendly shop in which clients from 18 to 100 would feel comfortable and receive high quality, custom designs in any style.
Three years later, we opened our piercing shop, just across from the tattoo studio. The response was bigger and more positive than we ever could have imagined, and in 2009, we moved both shops to a much larger space on Fraser and 203, where we remain today.
Over the years, our clientele has grown from friends and referrals to thousands of clients from the Fraser Valley, and well beyond. We have tattooed and pierced everyone from eighteen year old belly dancers to 87 year old grandmothers, and pride ourselves on being a fun and safe environment for clients and staff alike.
Our shop and staff have tripled in size over the years, and we look forward to continued growth and evolution. This year alone, we have built a brand new website, redesigned our shop, and begun collaborations with other artists, businesses, and organizations.
Come on in today and see what I-Kandy has to offer!
