How is Cover-Up done?

In the case of a cover-up, an individual approach is required from the tattoo master to create a new tattoo design, as the old design very much limits the performance of the new work. Therefore, only professional masters with a lot of experience under their belt do cover-ups.
Many inexperienced masters also take on cover-ups, but due to the lack of experience, knowledge of techniques of application and understanding of responsibility before the client they can worsen the situation. Such dilettantes more often cannot make a quality overlapping as far as cover-up unlike a usual tattoo is harder to do. Therefore it is necessary to entrust cover-ups only to professional tattoo masters working in salons.

Usually poorly made, old and small works are fixed not very difficult. They are simply closed with another, brighter and bigger picture. But you should keep in mind that if the past tattoo was done in black, then the cover-up over the old work, too, should be dark. There are many other little things that can affect the execution of a cover-up.

In order to take them all into account and make a beautiful and correct cover-up, we suggest to make an appointment for the correction of tattooing and visit a free consultation in our studio.

And don't forget to look at albums of performed works!

How does the cover up of a tattoo take place?

The process of preparing a sketch for a cover-up of an old image is laborious and complicated. An experienced and skillful master needs to place the new picture harmoniously on the old tattoo. There is no need to insist on certain drawings and elements - it happens that their application will not be able to overlap the old tattoo.

After careful drawing of all the details of the new image, the master proceeds to the session. Be prepared, maybe one visit to the tattoo salon will not be enough.

Experts point out that tattoo overlapping is the easiest, inexpensive and comfortable way to get rid of an unsuccessful drawing on the body. In contrast to the painful and very long laser removal, as well as dubious folk recipes using iodine, salt, hydrogen peroxide and other methods.

Attempts to remove tattoos at home can lead to disastrous consequences and cause irreparable harm to health.

In conclusion, let us note that the decision to perform a tattoo should be considered, because the picture becomes part of the person. However, if the mistakes of the past have left on your body the images that have lost relevance, the masters of tattoo studios will help you to get rid of them.

Peculiarities of tattoo overlapping

Before turning to a tattoo master for a cover-up session, it is worth considering a few nuances.

Not all styles of tattoo can be overlapped. If the old image has areas with solid coloring, it will not be possible to apply light watercolor drawings on top. In this case it is necessary to first lighten the tattoo place with a laser unit. Sometimes you also need to remove excess parts of the old tattoo that do not overlap with the new design.

The easiest way to overlap the old design can be a tattoo, made in blackwork style - when the area of the body is applied in solid black. However, such a tattoo will not look good on every person and not every area.

In the process of transforming the image changes the shape and colors of the tattoo, but it is worth noting that the result of the cover-up will be a few shades darker than the old image.

When overlaying, it is preferable to use cool shades of blue and green, as well as dense gray tones. Reds and yellows are not saturated enough, they will not be able to hide the old pigments completely.

To take and immediately replace one tattoo with another will not work, so you must be prepared for the fact that you will have to visit the tattoo salon a few times. The reasons for which do cover up quite a lot, but most often it is a correction of poor-quality tattoo ("partak"), overlapping the old tattoo, much less often the reason for cover up is simply nadodavshie image.

Before deciding to overlay the tattoo, it is necessary to think over all the nuances, because this procedure is not as simple as it seems. It is mandatory to carry out a thorough work on the sketch of the future tattoo, taking into account the existing tattoo. In this case just necessary is the close work of the client and master, in fact not always the sketch which the client likes it is possible to embody on a place of old image. Then on the help the professional who in details will explain what to what and will correct a situation comes.

It is worth to be prepared for the fact that you will have to spend not only a lot of time to fix the tattoo, but also to lay out quite a decent amount, especially if you first need to remove the old tattoo with a laser.

What to expect from a cover up?

1. If not expected to reduce or clarify the previous tattoo, the cover up will be much darker and larger in size. The fact is that it is impossible to overlap the old dark ink with lighter colors, so the tattoo in light colors in this case should be forgotten. Even if initially it seems that the old tattoo is perfectly drawn, the original lines with time will definitely show through the lighter tone and spoil the drawing. Therefore, most often in such cases, the original image is "scored" with blackwork, oldskul, newskul style tattoos, sometimes abstractionism or realism style tattoos.

2. If possible, of course, it is better still to use at least clarification of the tattoo. After the laser, the possibilities are greatly expanded and you can fantasize with the sketch. In terms of time and finances it is quite costly, but also the chance of getting a relatively new tattoo is much higher.

3. It happens that the master is approached with a request to fix the already started tattoo or modify an existing image without radical changes. This also applies to cover up. But in such situations it is very difficult for the master. In fact it is necessary not just to create a new sketch, but to finish the begun work, making reference to already existing picture, supplementing and improving it, choosing the correct colors and details.

Coker up - a very complex and time-consuming process, which must be treated with the utmost seriousness and responsibility. And henceforth choose only the tattoo salons that have a good reputation, and those artists who are professionals in their field so as not to have to do the cover up again.

What is a cover up and why it is necessary

Cover up is the overlapping of a tattoo with a new design. Studio specialists often encounter cases when a client wants to remove an outdated or low-quality image. Let's look at the common reasons why people come in for a tattoo overlapping session:

  1. Poor-quality work of a beginner - not always novice tattoo specialists exhibit their own work on the Internet, victims of such "masters" have to turn to experienced and verified specialists for a cover-up.
  2. Unusual to a master stylistics of work - as a rule, masters of tattoo salons specialize on the concrete technique and stylistics of work, whether it is realism, minimalism, dotwork, watercolor or something else. Even if the master will agree to perform your sketch in a new technique for him, the result may disappoint you.
  3. Life circumstances - tattoos can be done at a certain stage of life, be associated with a particular person or event. When some changes occur, people try to get rid of images of the past. A striking example is the names of former lovers.
  4. Loss of tattoo relevance - In the tattoo industry, as in any other, there are the latest trends and fashions. Tastes can change over time, the fashion of birds and tribbles is a thing of the past. Also, due to physiological changes (skin laxity, weight fluctuations and the like), the design can change and lose its appeal.
  5. A tattoo that has lost its appearance - drawings require renewal and proper care. Burned out and discolored pigments done with substandard inks from past generations can be replaced with stylish new tattoos.

The procedure of covering up is more expensive than applying a tattoo on a clean piece of skin. This is caused by the complexity of creating a sketch - the artist has to take into account the size and colors of the old image.

Correction (cover up)

The term cover up has been borrowed by the tattoo industry from the English language. In this article we will tell you what it means. Because it is simply necessary in advance and as best as possible to study everything that concerns your future tattoo, namely: sketches, technology application, care methods, the reputation of the master and ... cover up.

There are times when the made tattoo, for whatever reason, loses its relevance. The picture can be trivialize, fade with time or just be poorly executed. In any case, do not despair. Everything will be fixed by the cover-up.

So, the cover up is a process by which the old picture is completely overlapped by the new tattoo. In cases where you need to fix the tattoo, or even get rid of it radically, it is ideal. Using the technology of cover up master paints the selected sketch on the surface of the old drawing so that no trace of the old tattoo remains.

And yet, even an experienced master can have difficulties:

  • At creation of new exclusive tattoo the master will have to take into account some nuances of already applied drawing, developing essentially new sketch for the client
  • A previous tattoo limits the master's ability to perform a new tattoo
  • Dark contours of the old tattoo can eventually come through the new lighter pattern.

Therefore for a coordinate change of a tattoo it is necessary for the master to use all his creative forces, imagination and skill. Thus it is important to trust the master and to listen to his advices, and to try to impose the vision of a new tattoo. In the latter case there is a high probability not to transform an old tattoo in a new and cool drawing, but to see as a result something shapeless and vague. In addition, cover up can require a lot of time and money. So, weigh the pros and cons.

Now you know how difficult it is for a tattoo artist to make a quality and correct cover up. Before you decide to change your tattoo, decide for yourself how you see your new design. Describe in as much detail as possible your preferences to the specialist. An experienced master even in the most difficult cases will certainly think of how to implement your ideas in a new image. Trust the professional experience of the master.

And finally, from the beginning take extremely demanding to the choice of a master and image, so as not to perenabivate a new tattoo on top of the previous one. Because then you simply won't need a cover up. And if it is still necessary, make it correctly.
