I became really good at color tattoos during that time. Cover ups are especially rewarding. I enjoy helping a person relieve the anxiety one feels when having to look at the same Ex’s name from 5 years ago…usually these are in a highly visible spot, like on the wrist or forearm. So it can be seen EVERYDAY, reminding the person of the time they decided to show their loving devotion and commitment with a ‘name’ tattoo.
And then breaking up with, ‘Scott’ 2 months later. (for example…)
Now, this person subconsciously seems to have an issue with everyone named Scott. Even finding themselves in an awkward dilemma when faced with the possible purchase of Scott brand toilet paper? Hmmm…. toilet paper. Kinda says something right there. (I wrote this in 2018 btw) 
That seems to feel justly satisfying

….and… ironic….and

a smidge uneasy… all wrapped in one.
In our example scenario this is when the ‘almost client’ begins to real eyes the game of connecting the ‘Scott dots’ must end.

That’s where I come in!

By the time we are finished tattooing, any anxiety experienced in the bathroom will have disolved! Truly transformative.I love my clients. I tend to develop more of a genuine friendship with the majority. You know who you are.
Many clients have started crying tears of joy after we’ve covered these types of ‘name’ tattoos. It is truly healing and liberating. In the industry it is said that a curse is placed on the relationship at the time of inking your lovers name. I have seen break ups occur anywhere from the next day to 3 months down the road. Who is to say it was not going to happen anyway? I am also aware of couples who are still together, years and years after getting each other’s name inked.
