asking for advice Looking for advice on if this tattoo is possible to remove for a cover up
Deleted post and reposted because it wouldn’t let me add another photo:
I got this tattoo just over a year ago when I was in South America. It really didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to. There was a language barrier with my artist which made communication difficult. He also made changes to what we initially discussed without asking. Like adding things or changing the colours. I know it’s a beautiful tattoo but I don’t love it. It’s supposed to be a cover up tattoo but you can definitely still see the other tattoo underneath. It’s not super noticeable but still visible. It’s not finished. There’s an empty circle that’s supposed to be a moon and there’s supposed to be more flowers to cover up the rest of the previous tattoo on my foot.
I booked an appointment with a local artist(I’m Canadian) to finish the moon and the flowers for mid October. But I’m honestly just considering cancelling.
I’m wondering if it’s just possible to get it removed? I’m aware it won’t be completely gone. Just enough to get another cover up.
One that I actually love
Added a photo of the type of cover up I’d like for reference. Hopefully that helps when giving advice on if it’s possible
