Hey all! I have a big dark tattoo that most likely isn't going to be able to be covered up (though I'd love to), but it made me think, for a good cover up would you look for a cover-up specialist or someone who specialized in the style you would like. I've covered up 1 in the past and that was a style pick. What say you?
Have you given lasing a thought? It may not remove the ink completely but lighten it enough to where covering will take better. My daughter had one of hers covered by her artist. There was nothing special about the procedure other than making sure the new tat would cover the old.
