As you can imagine the most common tattoo cover up is of past lovers, boyfriends, girlfriends, husband's and wives. But you may also be surprised that they are a lot of other reason why one may want their tattoo covered up with a new tattoo. However, you must understand that in order to cover up a tattoo properly you are looking at getting a new tattoo that is at least three times the size of the one you are wanting to cover up. So this is why it is so important to think before you ink. Getting a lover's name tattooed on you is literally the kiss of death. If you want to get a tattoo to symbolize your life for someone go with imaginary and not their name. If you break up you will still have to live with that tattoo but PAUL's name or whomever name will not be permanently etched in your skin.
The other common reason for someone getting a tattoo covered up is if the first tattoo turned out horribly wrong. One tattoo artist has said that a very attractive young woman came into his parlor with a cute little butterfly tattoo on her ankle. The only problem was that body of the butterfly looked like a certain male body part. The artist was able to transfer that ugly butterfly into a gorgeous one. Tattoo artist also warn people not to go to Mexico to get a tattoo because it us cheaper. This woman with the male body part butterfly learned this lesson the hard way. Also tattoo artists say they get a lot of woman come in after they have had children to get that tattoo on their stomach covered up or adjusted so it looks presentable again. Which is another great reason why woman should think twice before getting a tattoo on their lower stomach.
The moral of this story is think twice, ink once. Make darn sure that you are making the right decision about your tattoo and the location as well. Also do some research about an artist before you let them tattoo you. After all you don't want to end up an ugly deformed tattoo.
