Tattoo cover-ups

    Just wondering if anyone here has ever got a new tattoo over an existing tattoo? and was it a success?

    I've got a tat on my back that I would really like to cover up ...it kinda looks butch and I'm very girly-girly so I'd like to get a butterfly or something along those lines to cover it up. My tattoo is mainly purple & pink ...does anyone know if I'd need to get a really dark tattoo to hide the existing? :confused:

    Thanks

    Well like you I had a dreadful tattoo done on my back, it had faded and wasn't straight so I spent a bit of time choosing my cover up tat and picked one I really liked and got Danny Bullman in Limerick to do it. I'm so pleased with it, u'd never know the other was ever there.

    Thanks for the reply Neesha ...did you have to get a fairly dark one to cover the original up?

    well it was black already so there was no colour change but I've a red and green one on my shoulder and I'm also getting that covered and I was told there will be no problem with a colour change...

    My dad had a back pieces covered you and an arm piece.

    He had a centurion skull on his back and got an eagle to cover it up. And he had a cross on his forearm and got it altered to look like flowers and put my mams name with it!

    Ask an artist about this, without asking them it is impossible to know what can be done with it.
