Recent Cover Up Tattoos: Japanese Floral, Eagle On Arm & Cherubs On Forearm

Cover up tattoos are something we get asked for many times here at Tattooed Lady Body Art. The secret to a successful cover up is that you should not be able to tell that the new tattoo covers an old one.

Obviously there are certain limitations in some cases but hopefully the following will show you why people come here for their custom cover up.

Let's start with a Japanese floral tattoo:

As you can see from the first image, it started as an old and somewhat faded unicorn at the top of the back, something that the lady was very self-conscious about:

Above you can still see the original tattoo underneath the outline of the "work-in-progress" custom design. The next image is the result of the 3rd session, with the addition of some colour you can see it starting to take shape. A beautiful combination of Japanese floral and water:

Below, some hours later, you can see the finished tattoo:

As you can see, a tattoo she is now happy to show!

The next one is a very frequent request: "Can you cover up this name please?"
Yes we can!

It started as an aged, faded heart and scroll with a name inside. You can see it here underneath the stencil of the new design:

A bit of a transformation I'm sure you'll agree!

Finally, for now at least, a star and cherubs tattoo that you may recognise from a Blog post a few days ago:

What we didn't say in that post was that this is also a custom design cover up.

Want to see how it was "Before"?

I bet you didn't know that was possible did you! Well, it is and so is so much more...

Time to share some of the latest work done here at Tattooed Lady Body Art.

First up, homage to our parents:



Next we have an almost full sleeve of Tribal:

And another to show how the design looks around the inside of the arm:

As you can see if you compare the next image with those above, Tribal tattoo designs vary hugely but you can be sure of a unique custom design that enhances your body. It's called Body Art for good reason!

What we showing you next, I hear you ask?
Cherubs. That's what!

Here they are:

And again, another angle to show more detail and how the design fits the shape of the arm:

There will be another post about this design in the very near future and we'll also be able to show you some similar religious designs so make sure you "Follow" the Blog.

And finally...

Fierce Dragon. Skull. Flames. Black & Grey. Colour.

This tattoo has it all:

Thought for the day

A warning from Ezekiel!

Busy day here at the Studio today so not much chance to keep you posted but there's lots more coming soon...

Watch this space!

Cover Up Tattoo On Hand: Name to Floral

First off, how to cover up a name or text tattoo that you no longer want?
There are several ways and it doesn't have to be a solid black tribal tattoo like many people assume.

In this case a feminine floral and swirl design was chosen.

Ths is the name that she wanted covering on the outside of the hand:

In the "Work In Progress" image below you can see the stencil of the new design and how it covers the old name tattoo:

And below... the finished tattoo!
