<p><b>New page</b></p><div><html><div class="mw-content-ltr" dir="ltr" id="mw-content-text" lang="en"><p>Faced with a tattoo you don't want, you have two main options (other than "deal with it") for the problem. <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Tattoo_removal" title="Tattoo removal">Tattoo removal</a> is of course one option, but it's extremely expensive, painful, and often leaves a scar, so many people choose to do a cover up.<br />
</p><p>A cover up may take the form of <b>reworking</b> which is basically going over the same tattoo in an attempt to clean it up — making the outlines crisper and bolder, refreshing the colours, and so on. If the original tattoo artwork is acceptable but poorly applied, this is usually the best option.<br />
</p><p>In the case of a true (and total) cover up, the artist uses a larger and darker design to "cover" the existing tattoo. <b>GREAT</b> care should be exercised in choosing an artist to do the coverup, as you don't want to make it <b>WORSE</b>!<br />
</p><p>In the past, cover ups were often rather crude. <a href="/index.php?title=Black_Panther" title="Black Panther">Black Panthers</a>, <a href="/index.php?title=Tribal" title="Tribal">tribal tattoo</a> designs and 8-balls were your best option. These days, inventive tattooists who utilize a balanced sense of light and shading can cover most tattoos so nicely that the man on the street would never have known anything else was ever there.<br />
</p><p><a href="/index.php?title=White_Ink" title="White Ink">White ink</a> is sometimes used to lighten the old tattoo in preparation for cover up, and others will partially remove a tattoo before covering it up (since tattoo removal often takes several sessions, slowly lightening the piece).<br />
