How Do I Know If My Tattoo Is Faded Enough for a Cover-Up?

Answered by Sude ErdemTattoo artist in Los Angeles

There isn’t a specific level of fading that works for every cover-up. It depends on the darkness, colors, size, and density of the existing tattoo, as well as what we are planning to cover it with.

The best option is to send clear photos of the tattoo so I can evaluate whether it can be covered directly or if some laser lightening would give us a better result.
