With no future college degree in sight, Cleo had to think of something else to do in order to afford ends meet and the first thing which came to her heart was tattoos as drawing was one of the things she knew how to do well. At 14 years of age, she began training as an apprentice in a tattoo shop in Stockholm. A fast learner, Cleo Wattenstrom was ready to be a standalone tattoo artist in a short while.
