Cover-up tattoos
Yes, South Seas does cover-ups. A cover-up tattoo designs a new piece over an old, faded or unwanted tattoo so the old one no longer shows. The new design uses darker areas, bold patterning or color in the right places to hide what is underneath, and the shop has covered old tribal, names, scar tissue and other artists’ work.
