    Honest question as someone who has no tattoos: why do people get cover ups instead of getting the tattoo removed? Is it a price issue? It often looks like a deliberate choice. But I cannot imagine that having a funny cover up of a tattoo you regret and still end up being reminded of is better than having it gone altogether.

      a coverup is considerably cheaper and less painful than a removal. also, a removal often comes with a lot of visible scarring so a coverup can end up being less noticable
