Tatted Mom
Tucson, AZ
Female, 32
I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
I don't think it's advisable to tattoo over any skin abnormalities- liver spots, scratches, bruises, even moles.

I like outlineless artsy tattooes. I do a lot of flowers, birds, soft things. Many of my tattooes come out looking like a painting, and I love that. I know artists who like neo-traditional, traditional, Japanese, biomechanical- just about anything, except tribal. I haven't found one single artist that actually likes doing tribal.

I'd take the tattoo to a tattoo artist and have them draw their own original version based on what you saw on pinterest.

Redness around a tattoo for the first week (or more, depending on if it's a highly exposed area on your body that has clothes rub against it or bends) is completely normal. Just keep that in mind for future use, and always follow your tattoo artist's healing instructions... unless they tell you to clean your tattoo with hydrogen peroxide. Then, find a new tattoo artist.

I'm not sure about a 'lighter' shade of your skin, but black and gray tattoos are done with different shades of gray ink and no color.
Share Answer: 
No idea. It depends on if you have a small "Brandi" on your arm or the word "Brandi" across your entire back. Size, body placement, darkness of tattoo, and age of tattoo are all a factor in covering a tattoo.
