Hooksett, New Hampshire

Tattoo cover-up consultations

A cover-up starts with the tattoo you already have. Tell us where it sits, roughly how large it is, and what you hope to change. You might want to keep part of the original design or take the piece in a different direction. Either is worth discussing.

What to bring to the conversation

Describe the existing ink and send references for the new idea. Ask the studio which photographs would help, or say if you’d prefer to show the placement in person. A clear view of the existing piece and its position on the body gives the artist context.

Planning the new design

Tell the artist which details matter most to you and how you feel about changing the size or placement. The options depend on the existing ink and the new composition. The artist can discuss suitability, next steps and a project-specific quote after reviewing the tattoo.
