Since childhood, I've had an interest in and desire for self-expression through art. It may have grown into various things over the years, but I find art to be my outlet and what brings out the best in me creatively. And I have wonderful memories of doing so as a child, when I would buy things solely to receive free stickers or temporary tattoos and found joy in it.
Back in the day, you needed water to stick temporary tattoos to your skin. However, I discovered Freakynine; the brand provides a modern quick/instant application of temporary tattoos. You can carry it anytime, anywhere, making it convenient and on the go.
Freakynine's Story and their Collaborative Efforts with Tattooists
Before we dive into their collection, let's first get to know the brief background of the brand through this mini Q&A graced by Freakynine's brand manager.
- Is there a story behind the brand name Freakynine?
“The name itself has no special meaning.” - How long has Freakynine been in the temporary tattoo business?
“We started our business in September 2022.” - Are your temporary tattoos manufactured in Korea?
“Yes. All of our products are manufactured in Korea, and we have a Korean patent for a natural tattoo sticker manufacturing method that sticks without water.” - How did the brand come up with the concept of quick/instant application?
“We thought that fashionating us should be easy and simple above all else. We wanted to create a product that can transform yourself whenever and wherever you want. So, we launched temporary tattoo products that are as natural as a real tattoo and can be easily attached without water.” - How did the brand collaborate with Korean Tattoo Artists?
“Tattoo is not legal in Korea. We wanted to improve this perception through tattoo stickers and considered tattoos themselves as an art. We conveyed these thoughts to tattooists and were able to collaborate with tattooists who sympathized with these thoughts. We do not place any restrictions on our tattooists' artwork. We manage them in an environment as free as possible with the design they want and the name they want.”
Self-Expression with Identity Collection
It delighted me to be gifted several items from their 1st Collection: Identity. It was a splendid concept for their debut collection to showcase the varied artwork styles of their collaborative works with Korean Tattoo Artists. And that distinguishes the brand from others; Korean Tattoo Artists specifically crafted their pieces, giving them a more realistic and unique feel. And that they are highlighting the artwork and creativeness of the artists makes it even more special.

I've used Freaky Nine tattoos and I love them because they are so easy to use and the designs are beautiful! I love the designs you chose and it was nice seeing where you placed them!
ReplyDeleteI think it is a great way to figure out if you would like a tattoo permanently. One of my little sisters when she was young used to use temporary tattoos. I love the dainty ones, they are so cute! Thank you for sharing.
