Rakiah Maguire is a Tacoma-based tattoo and nail artist known for her creative eye, determination to succeed, and her hilariously real Instagram stories. As the owner of Cry Baby Ink., Rakiah has built more than just a business—she’s built a brand rooted in authenticity, creativity, and community. A mother and multi-hyphenate creative, she’s known not only for her clean lines and bold designs, but for the way she shows up fully in every space—whether she’s behind the tattoo gun, attaching jewels to acrylics, or sharing hilarious, unfiltered moments on Instagram.
Beyond the artistry, Rakiah uses the success of her business to pour back into her community—supporting & collaborating with other local artists, speaking out on important social issues, and contributing to local mutual projects in Tacoma.
In this episode, we talk about motherhood being the best motivation, making time for art, believing in yourself and your business, and using your success to lift others up.
