Cover-Up Tattoo Services
From first consultation to finished design, we plan each cover-up around your existing tattoo and the result you want.
Cover-Up Consultation
A cover-up starts with understanding what you have and what you hope to change. We’ll discuss the tattoo’s size, colour, placement and visibility, along with your preferred styles. Bring reference images if you have them. We can talk through realistic design directions and whether fading may help create more options before tattooing.
Custom Cover-Up Design
Your new design needs to work with the tattoo beneath it, not just look good on its own. We’ll consider the existing shapes, dark areas and surrounding skin when discussing a concept. Your preferences guide the direction, while practical design choices help the cover-up feel considered and balanced on your body.
Colour and Blackwork
Some cover-ups call for rich colour, while others work best with bold blackwork, texture or layered shading. The right approach depends on the existing tattoo and the new design you have in mind. We’ll discuss how different tones and patterns can help integrate the old ink into a fresh piece.
Cover-Up Tattoo Sessions
Once you’re comfortable with the design direction, we’ll discuss how the tattooing process may work for your chosen piece. Larger or more detailed cover-ups can require more than one session. You’ll have time to ask questions about preparation and aftercare, so you know what to expect before your appointment.
