Think before you ink. It’s a common expression here in the tattoo industry but it’s also sound advice. There are so many people who do not think before committing themselves to something permanent on their bodies. All to often we see men and women with regrettable tattoos. They were intoxicated, or didn’t research the meaning of a symbol, were very young, perhaps it is an ex loved ones name. No matter the reason, they are now stuck with a tattoo they no longer desire to have on their bodies.
An alarming percentage of tattoo cover ups come from individuals who made the ultimate mistake and got a tattoo from someone who runs them from home. Non professional tattoos create a number of health risks. Most people don’t realize the dangers or most common mistakes made by a unlicensed “tattooer” during a home tattoo. If they were aware of just how terribly wrong it could go, no one would ever get a tattoo out of someone’s dirty kitchen or basement. Bacteria, cross contamination, and infection IE: AIDS, HEP B are just a few of the hazards when receiving a tattoo from home. Should an infection arise, you’ll have no recourse because a home tattooer or “scratcher” wont have any records considering what he/she is doing is about 10 kinds of ILLEGAL. The very best scenario in this situation is you don’t like the “new and cheap tattoo” and realize at some point WILL need to be covered up!!

When this happens, there are basically two options, either an expensive laser removal session(s) or a tattoo cover up. Covering a tattoo can sometimes be a challenge depending on the size, location, and design. It is important that you spend some time and really think about the tattoo you are wanting to get. Coming up with an original tattoo idea is essential in creating a piece that is custom for you. If you are having difficulties creating your custom piece, talk with your artist. They are excellent at devising pieces of body art personalized to their clients vision. Custom tattoos can a bit more expensive, however it is far more expensive having to cover up a poorly done tattoo, or go through the painful laser removal process.

In today’s “hurry up” world, we do anything we can to expedite any process. It is as though saving time has become an obsession with our country. How often do you get impatient if your computer takes a few extra seconds to process something? When we are in a hurry, how frustrating is it that a red light seemingly keeps us stopped for what we perceive as an eternity? We have become lovers of the “fast and easy” lifestyle. Permanent makeup is just another way to save minutes and decrease the preparation time to getting ready in the mornings, so it’s no wonder why make up wearers are clambering to become a part of the permanent makeup movement.
Permanent makeup is actually a well-placed and properly colored tattoo that gives the impression that you are always wearing makeup. The pigment is applied by the technician with a tattoo needle. After time, you may wish to return to get it touched up and brightened. When you visit an establishment that provides permanent makeup, you can choose whatever color you want your makeup to be, and the tattoo artist will draw on the areas on your skin that will be pigmented. The color ink is then applied to the area with a hollow needle. The ink is not placed deep into the skin; it remains in the top layers only, however it can sting a little, just as conventional tattoos sting when being applied. The pigment will not appear as the color you selected for about three weeks, until it has faded to the right shade.
Another name for permanent makeup is micropigmentation. It has become a specialized service in the makeup industry, as well as the tattoo industry. This field is expanding as demand grows greater. Not only is it a boon to those wishing to save time, but for those who have medical issues that keep their hands from functioning properly, such as arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, or multiple sclerosis. Others who have issues with eyesight no longer have to wonder if they applied their makeup correctly. Those who get it never have to worry about their makeup smudging after swimming, or after crying, or even after working out.
Aside from the conventional makeup application, there are other uses for permanent makeup. For instance, breast cancer patients who undergo breast reconstruction after mastectomies can have nipples applied with the tattoo methods. Those who lose their hair may wish to have eyebrows applied permanently, or those who have lip scars can have the lip color smoothed out with the tattoo method.
Anyone considering getting permanent makeup applied should consider a few other factors. While it is very handy and saves time, you lose the ability to vary the color of eyeliner you wear, or other features, and tattoo removal can be very difficult, so it’s important to be very confident of exactly what you want.
The premier Fort Myers tattoo shop not only makes beautiful new designs on your body, but they can also transform old, unwanted tattoos into works of wanted art! Tattoos are a wonderful way to express yourself. Unfortunately, now and then someone makes a mistake in judgment, or situations change and you no longer like, nor want the tattoo that was placed on your body. Perhaps you no longer love the person who you thought you’d be with forever, and the last thing you need is the constant reminder of their name permanently displayed on your skin. Or maybe you don’t love that rock band anymore, whose logo you have prominently displayed across your back. Relax; the situation can be remedied with a cover-up tattoo, which is a new tattoo to cover the old one. All it takes is a reputable, well-established tattoo shop and a talented artist to make a new work of art that will be a welcome change for the recipient. Both of these can be found at Articulture Studio Z in Fort Myers, Florida.
Here is a fact about tattoos that you should know. The dermis is a layer of skin that lies underneath the epidermis, which is the outer layer, or “top” layer of skin. When you get a tattoo, the ink is distributed in the dermis, about a millimeter under your outer skin. Covering up a tattoo is completely different than getting a new tattoo on blank skin. When you get a tattoo covered, you’re not really covering it at all; you are mixing the ink from the old tattoo with the new tattoo to create a new design. The ink from the old tattoo doesn’t go anywhere; it’s still in the dermis layer of your skin.
When you plan for the new tattoo to cover the old one, it is most effective to have a design that is the same or similar shape as the unwanted body art. It is a matter of actually incorporating the old tattoo into the new design, so that it is completely camouflaged with the new ink. The most effective cover-ups are the ones that don’t look like cover-ups. The new design should look like a fresh, original tattoo. If you don’t have a tattoo design in mind for the cover-up, any of the skilled artists at Studio Z can assist you with the new design, and make suggestions that you will find helpful.
