When you got your first tattoo, the ink was deposited at least one millimeter beneath your skin, into the dermis — a layer beneath the epidermis (skin). The ink is deposited anew in the same dermis where the ink from the prior tattoo is already present during the cover-up process.
The fresh ink’s pigment does not mix with the pigment in your old tattoo. These two hues are mixed together to make a new color. It’s possible that dark inks will dominate the mix. Under your skin, blue and red, for example, combine to form purple.
Furthermore, the majority of tattoo artists believe that black is the most effective color for concealing practically any old tattoo. Many individuals dislike the idea of having black ink all over the design, but it sounds better than having to live with the previous tattoo.
When a tattoo artist is attempting to cover up an existing tattoo, the attention is usually on the color of the existing tattoo and how to incorporate it into new ink.
After sketching up a plan to position the new pattern and color carefully on the prior tattoo, certified tattoo artists get to work. Furthermore, a cover-up will allow you to show off your tattoo in public.
