_What design did your friend get & most important where? Can't it be covered by a professional tattoo?
love them homemade tats - we make a lot of money fixin that crap just try not to mutilate yerself over too large of an area, it's hard to find a good coverup design for those really big splotchy ones. and don't ever do anything on your hands. just don't do it at all - you will regret it. as fer the 'prison tattoo' comment IronGoth - i have seen some absolutely amazing jailhouse tats - more crap than art though, you're right. but if you look into the evolution of tattooing, the new school inkwork was actually inspired by ink coming from the prisons in california. the difference is that these guys were tattooist first, then felons.
first of all as soon as sharpie ink is in your blood stream you will die.... trust me it isnt a smart idea i am an apprentice and ive seen some HORRIBLE self done tattts...not smart.
She did her boyfriend's initials inside a heart,her boyfriend at the time that is,they've been broken up for years now..so that alone was a horrid mistake. Then also a flower design but it turned out really messy,so it's not what she considers attractive at all. Both are on her upper legs...They could be covered,but she still wouldn't be very happy with it,because she doesn't even like having tats on her upper legs. She put them there,when we were young,so her parents wouldn't see them.
