Details That Matter Most

Cover up tattooing requires specialized artistic skills, creative vision, and technical knowlede to successfully conceal existing artwork while creating beautiful new designs. A successful cover-up tattoo is so much more than just placing a larger design over your exiting tattoo. 

Professional cover-up service includes these essential components:

Why Locals Choose This Option

Successful tattoo cover-ups depend on careful assessment of existing artwork and strategic design planning that works with your skin's unique characteristics.

Can any old tattoo be completely covered up?
Most tattoos can be successfully covered using strategic design placement and appropriate color selection, though some may require laser lightening first.
How do you choose the right design for cover-up work?
Kurt selects designs with sufficient size and dark elements to mask existing ink while creating artwork you'll love for years.
Does cover-up tattooing take longer than regular tattoo work?

Cover-up tattoos are a process. Larger and darker tattoos often require additional, shorter follow-up sessions 6-8 weeks later to further hide the original tattoo.

Will people be able to tell I had a cover-up done?

Successful cover-up work should not look like a "cover-up tattoo" to the untrained eye. Effective design and application will make your cover-up look as it should... Like a clean, professional tattoo.

How soon can I start a cover-up project?
Existing tattoos should be fully healed before cover-up work begins, typically requiring at least eight weeks from any previous tattooing.

Kurt's proven track record with complex cover-up projects gives you confidence that your unwanted tattoo will become beautiful artwork you're proud to show. Contact us to arrange your cover-up consultation and start planning your design refresh.
