Billy DeCola

My name is Billy DeCola. I've been tattooing and doing SMP professionally since 2010. I teach the Art of Scalp Micropigmentation in a way that's easy to understand and simple to execute. I started my tattoo career at the world famous Miami Ink Tattoo Studio in Miami Beach, Florida and I was a cast member on TLC’s hit reality TV series ‘NY Ink’. I own Studio Kiku where I teach and perform SMP regularly. I look forward to sharing my knowledge about scalp micropigmentation with you.
