I got a color tattoo with green red orange yellow blue I did a blackout tattoo over it because I hated it What would happen if I did white now? The idea I have is like a galaxy for this third attempt White make the color show through like a star or a planet in the galaxy-scape? Or is the color completely non salvageable after the blackout over it?
Anything is possible but that is going to take some time! Color will show through once you reach a level of saturation of the new pigments that allows less absorbency of what’s already in there. It will never look really bright. If you do this make sure to pay attention to scarring over saturation.
@@BetterTattooingI also have a colored tattoo, thinking to block it out but worried the old colored tattoo would show through. It’s a 14 year old tat. It’s got red, yellow blue and some black in it. So will the old tattoo show through when all blacked out still? Thanks.
Hey, I also have a colored tattoo that’s 14 years old. I’d like to black it out, so when you covered it with blackout, did the old tattoo still show through or did it completely cover it up? Thanks
The short answer is yes and no. Not trying to be a arse but there isn’t ever going to be a single, “This is how you do it every time” approach to tattooing. You have to make guesses everyday based on the variable of the client as a person. Their age, health, genetics/ancestry, lifestyle, pain tolerance, etc. should all come into play when you choose how to approach the work. Maybe I’ll make a video about that when we get back to filming in a couple of weeks.
You make things so easy to understand! Love it! Keep it up my friend.
awesome. thanks!
Thank you.
Heck yeah dude! We are going to be making some more videos like this soon

@@Quickliqour it may, depending on how much time and effort you want to put in it.
So would you recommend using a thin needle or say a shader to outline based on ur trauma theory????
