tattoo regret it's very real an
estimated
75 percent of people regret at least one
of their tattoos
maybe it was poorly done maybe your
tattoo doesn't match your personality or
lifestyle anymore
or maybe you got a tattoo of your
significant other and you two just broke
up
assuming you don't want to live with
your tattoo regret anymore you have four
options and i'm gonna lay them out for
you step by step
but first a quick little shout out to

you're looking for gear that is premium
and looks good
top gifts for dad's brothers boyfriends
etc check out skeleton hd and all their
links are in the descriptions below
now back to the video your first option
is a rework and if you don't know what
that is
it's pretty much taking your already
existing tattoo that might not have the
greatest details or have been the
highest quality
taking that and modifying it however way
it needs to be modified
to make it look better whether that's
adding shading highlights colors or
details to enhance the tattoo with the
rework you gotta be very careful you go
to a top-notch artist that can actually
pull it off
because if you go to any random artist
you're just gonna get crap on crap and
it's just gonna be a waste of your money
and your time also if you're wondering
how much it's gonna cost
well that's all up to your artist some
might charge you an hourly rate and some
might charge you a flat fee for either
the day or the piece
whatever the case may be i highly
suggest that if you choose to go with
this route you spare
no expenses because if the artist is
good at what he or she does
then you should be willing to pay them
whatever they're worth to get that good
rework and mind you
not every tattoo can be reworked which
brings us to option number two
laser removal with this method you have
two choices
your first choice remove the entire
thing despite whatever you heard in the
past
these days it's very much possible to
remove your entire tattoo
this could take anywhere from 4 to 15
sessions depending on which clinic you
go to
what machines they use and what kind of
tattoo you have from there once your
tattoo is fully removed you either live
your life as a tattooed free individual
or you start with a fresh canvas getting
any tattoo you possibly want
this one's the best option in my opinion
because once your skin's cleared of
all the ink then your possibilities are
endless and you could finally get that
tattoo you've always wanted in the first
place
now if for some reason you don't want to
get your tattoo removed completely
maybe it's a money thing maybe it's a
patience thing then your other choice is
to go in for a few laser sessions
just to get your tattoo lightened up to
the point where your artist can do a
cover up
you should always keep your artists
updated with your removal progress
to make sure it's light enough for them
to properly execute your new design
also don't let the rumors about the
paint stop you from getting it lasered
personally i had a very good tattoo
removal experience
despite all the rumors i heard about it
hurting like crazy
for me that just wasn't the case getting
tattooed felt way worse than getting it
removed
maybe it was the machine we used though
so if you're gonna go the laser removal
route
then make sure you go to a good clinic
that uses top of the line equipment
with that being said i completely
understand that getting your tattoo
removed can be extremely costly
which brings us to option number three
and that's going in for a straight up
cover up
without any laser now this one's not the
best option for every tattoo
it works a lot better when you're
covering small tattoos with bigger ones
overall you need a very good artist to
do flawless work for you
and even still for some tattoos you just
can't expect a miracle when you go for a
straight cover-up depending on what
tattoo you have you're extremely limited
on what design you can choose from
your best bet is to go to your artist
and show them your tattoo
and if they say they can cover it up
then be open for them to suggest to you
possibilities of what they can cover it
up with
one very important note this is not a
time to cheap out and go to any random
artist
cause chances are you're gonna end up
regretting that cover-up as well
moving on option number four is a blast
over now this is very similar to a
cover-up but at the same time
very different as well because with a
smooth cover up your old tattoo
shouldn't be showing
however with a blast over it's literally
just a tattoo on top of another tattoo
they don't really care much about
blending the two tattoos seamlessly
if you're not really committed in the
whole tattoo scene then this really
isn't the best option for you cause it
could get messy
and if you're a bit self-conscious and
want clean flawless work
then definitely don't do this however if
you're someone who doesn't care then go
for it
to me it looks pretty badass even though
i wouldn't go that route myself
i do enjoy seeing it on other people and
in case you're wondering
yes this is gonna be your cheapest
option lastly it's very important to
know that with any one of these routes
you choose to take
it's very important to let your old
tattoo heal first
before proceeding it doesn't matter if
you just left the tattoo shop and you
absolutely hate your tattoo and you're
not in the right mindset
give it time have a little patience let
your tattoo heal think long and hard
before making any decisions
because you don't want to end up with
two regrets with that being said i hope
