Old tattoos don’t need to be a lifelong regret. With modern techniques, skilled shading, and expert design, Inkd Tattoo Studios specialises in transforming outdated, faded, or unwanted tattoos into fresh works of art.
Why People Choose Cover-Ups
Clients come to us because:
- Their tattoo faded or blurred
- The design no longer matches their personality
- A past artist didn’t deliver what they wanted
- They want to replace old memories with positive ones
- They’re upgrading to a more detailed style
A cover-up gives you a clean slate while keeping your skin healthy and beautiful.
How Our Cover-Up Process Works
- Assessment — We study the old tattoo’s shape, size, colours, and density.
- Design Planning — We creatively weave your new idea around the old ink.
- Layering & Shading — New ink is layered strategically for maximum coverage.
- Detail Work — Fine lines, gradients, and textures add realism.
- Final Refinements — Highlights bring the new tattoo to life.
We focus on transformation, not concealment—turning flaws into features.
What Makes a Good Cover-Up Design
Some common choices include:
- Black & grey realism
- Animals
- Religious motifs
- Florals
- Mandalas
- Abstract shapes
- Portraits
- Larger custom designs
The key is contrast, depth, and creative reimagining.
