Hey everybody here at Last Sparrow Tattoo! I've had this tattoo for over 2 years and I've been planning on getting it redone but I haven't had any good ideas on what I should do to make it better. a coverup is almost impossible for this due to its size and darkness but I just wanted to maybe get something added or get it reworked to look better. Any thoughts/opinions would be very much appreciated! thanks!

from experience I would have some laser sessions done then start fresh with a new tattoo.. The only reason I say that is that tattoo is kinda big and what would you cover that up with? Making it better? I guess it's possible to redo it but you will be limited in the new design..

First thing is find amazing tattooer and speak to him/her about it. NYC isn't too far from VA.

Also what direction are you going? Traditional?

I am located in 757 Norfolk, VA.

and well laser removal is not really something I was planning, I kind of just wanted ideas of anything I could do to make it better.

Homey, everyone else has suggested good folks, but, I would also check out JD Crowe's Ancient Art in VB. Dave Voegeli, Scott Sterling, and Tony Riccio are hot fire.

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By zomno · Posted

      Hey, I have a serious problem! I got a tattoo in Manila 4 weeks ago. The artist is very well known and is one of the most renowed. 2 day after tattooing, small pimples began to form on my thight an many at the tattoo. 3 days later i had fever at night (just at night). After that, the pimpels began to spread very quickly all over the body. (back stomach etc..) I have now been to 3 doctors and everyone is at a loss. The blood work is fine and with no anomalies. Antibiotic ointment and cortisone ointment did not help. Xyzall allergy tablets did not help either. When i took cortisone tablets, 90% of the pimpels disappeared on the tattoo, but not on the other parts of the body. Now that I´am no longer taking cortisone, the pimpels on the tattoo are starting to grow back again very quick. On the other parts of the skin , the pimpels are sometimes lighter and sometimes stronger. This can be change hourly. They don´t hurt and hardy lever itch. Of course I´am afraid of a tattoo allergie. Has anyone already had this problem ? Does anyone know what that could be ? I add photos: 1) Photo directly after tattooing. 2) 2 Photos with the pimpels after a week 3) After 3 weeks while taking cortisone. 4) Photo of the body on the left.
