Factors a good covering tattoo needs to consider

The size and color of the original tattoo can affect the covering effect. The color tattoo is usually easier to cover than the black tattoo. It also depends on the amount of pigment left in the skin. The more dim or shallow the tattoo heals, the easier it is to cover up the original design.

Remember that the scarring should be completely healed – which means that the color has dimmed and it has been “fused into the skin” as much as possible – before you try to cover it up.
