By Zach Pollick

You realized that the deer tracks you selected to symbolize your liking for hunting basically look like ladybugs. You would like them replaced by a manly design that wouldn't be mistaken as a lowly creature of some sort. What do you have to do next?

Covering-up old tattoos is gaining its momentum as one of the most promising alternatives to tattoo removal. It is comparatively far less distressing than other strategies, and most importantly it is significantly a lot less costly. The price is typically just the price of a regular tattoo.

Tattoo cover up is simply having an old tattoo covered up with another one. When done properly, your old tattoo will be absolutely invisible, reduced to a mere memory. But what are the downsides? First, the design of your old tattoo can either make or break your cover-up plans. Dark tattoos should be covered by dark new ones. You can't cover something dark with something light. Also, the new design should cover up the old one so it mustn't have too any spaces and blanks. And of course, you have to choose a new design that's either bigger than the present one or has the capability to mix well with it.

Choosing the best tattooist is essential. He must be able to use his expertise give new form and life to your old tattoo, not mess it up even more. Once a tattoo has been covered up, it's nearly impossible; and not advisable to hide it again if something goes badly wrong with it.

Some tattoo artists utilize a method where saline solution is "tattooed" and not injected on the skin. This technique it is said to be useful in fading tattoos as a prelude to covering it up. Tattoo artists cannot seem to agree as to the efficacy of this strategy. On the other hand, it is claimed to be harmless to clients. So for someone who needs to lighten an existing tattoo before having the actual cover-up, this is worth trying. Finding an artist who does this, however , can be really challenging.

Covering up your tattoo will not get rid of the root of your problem. In fact, it will only transform it from one design to another. Therefore it is best that you do your share so as not to make another blunder in selecting a design. This time, think hard and long before finalizing your decision. Remember that cover-ups cannot have another cover-up. It doesn't work like a pencil eraser or correction fluid on paper. If you eliminated all of the other possible tattoo removal methods for whatever reasons you have, tattoo cover-up is the next best thing for you.
