cover ups...

So...it turns out I HATE my last tattoo. It was well thought out..but i just don't like it. It is pretty dark and I know covering will almost be a big black blob. I have consulted 3 tattoo artists. Has anyone ever done the laser removal to lighten a tattoo to THEN get it covered?

ive not actually had this done but ive looked into it for myself. i think it can work out quite pricey but then again i suppose it also depends on how much you want to fade it by, i think its definitely worth looking into as it is on you literally forever. good luck. oh ps i believe the darker the colour the better the results.

can you post a piccy?
