I had an old faded tattoo on my shoulder I have been ashamed of for years and was given $250 for my birthday to get a COVER UP done by Joe. When I consulted with him to do it, he refused to cover it up because he knew the original artist. He made an appointment for me promising to refurbish it and make it better . (It is a biomechanical piece)
He literally traced it in darker and gave me the exact same tattoo! He added nothing to it, essentially making the faded old tattoo a bolder version of the original one I was ashamed of and wanted covered up. (Effectively making it EVEN MORE difficult to cover up!)
I have known him for a long time, and have referred people to him. He is a different person now. I will never return to his shop again, and I highly recommend finding a different person to put permanent pictures on your body!
