Hoe do tattoo artists normally handle moles?

I have a small mole on my right arm that's blue now because the artist went over it while filling in the color. It's not noticeable unless someone takes a really close look at it; and preferable to a weird exclusion zone around the mole.

I'm trying to picture this. Like, the skin tears open to reveal a holster and gun underneath like he's the shittiest Terminator, or like he's so hardkore he tore a hole in his skin to stick his gun into?

Come to think of it, has the "skin tears open to reveal my TRUE SELF which is leopard print or the Monster logo or something" ever worked? I can see how it might, theoretically, but I've never seen a version of it I thought looked good.

Imagine you’ve been holding a magnifying glass over your calf at the beach

The skin bubbles like molten pitch and forms a blister the size of a softball

Now shove a five-year-olds drawing of a glock through it so the blister acts as the holster

It’s as bad as you think it is- the barrel actually protrudes from the “bottom” of the “holster”

The girl licking the lollipop on the cover of the album is a fictional character created by Crazy Town, known as "Little Lolita". Both the album title and the picture of Little Lolita are based on lyrics from the song "Lollipop Porn". The album cover was designed by co-lead singer Shifty Shellshock's father and uncle

The band's "mascot" is a slutty, possibly underage, caricature of a girl drawn by the lead singer's dad and uncle. Given their music, that is super on-brand.

Youngest person I ever met with a tattoo was 13. His mother had someone tattoo her name on him and his da dragged him into us to either get it lasered off or to add his own name to it and we told him to get the gently caress out. He was maaad

e: Second youngest was a 14 yo girl, also dragged in by a parent. Though this time it was because it'd been done in Spain on holiday with her consent (?!) and she wasn't happy with it. She got very heated when I told her no one in the shop would work on her kid. No not even now she's already been tattooed.
Didn't even get to see what was on her foot, I just wanted to be as uninvolved as possible.

There are so much ugliness in that one simple story.

1)Mum labeling her 13 year old child with her name, (possibly as a petty spiteful attack on the dad)
2)Dad, equally as pettily demanding that he get equal billing, or she get none on the billboard that is a living child.
3)That poor kid, who has to deal with both passive aggressive parents, and the sort of neglect/innatention that thinks it is OK to let your 13 year old get tattoos.

I write about prep athletics in a rural, higher poverty area. I'd say about 25% of football and basketball players have ink by the time they're 18. A couple had a full sleeve by 16-17. There's one athlete who had big honking glops of text on both shoulders by 14. I'm not sure about permission given on many of them, but based on run-ins with this child's parent, I have no doubt it was approved.

And yes, all of the work on these kids is very, very lovely. That said, the quality of work on the adults is only slightly less lovely.

A friend of mine used to do illegal tattoos out of his apartment. As soon as he did work on one 16 year old, word got around and every hosed up high school kid in town started showing up at his door and his sketchy business boomed until he decided it was too risky to keep going. An unexpected side effect was nazi scum also started showing up thinking he would be down with swastikas and other white power poo poo the legit shops wouldn’t do. He would tell them to gently caress off. One kid from Serbia got a big soccer ball done on his rear end cheek which was loving hilarious.

This just makes me wonder if tattoo-removal shops have definable trends of which tattoos people regret, and how those trends correlate with getting tattooed in the first place. What kind of trendy garbage do people regret the quickest?

According to the lady that lasered my wife's old tatts before the cover ups, right now's an exception because wants their game of thrones tatts off right the gently caress now because lol obviously, but usually it's mostly bad versions of whatever trendy tattoos were a few years ago.

Or gently caress, just have a lovely tattoo that reminds you of a time in your life. I have a dumb stupid tattoo I got when I was 18 freshly booted out of the house. I also have some ones I got later when I had more money and sense to find a top-shelf artist. I’m never gonna get that old tat lasered because of the nostalgia.

Obviously this argument works less well for pickle Rick but whatever, no regrets :colbert:

This has been my experience. Also lots and lots of names. I'm removing a load of cover ups atm from people who decided to follow up being super cheap with being super cheap yet again and just have huge black blobs.

And a few people who have very very fresh work, including a woman who wanted removal several hours after she'd gotten it ( the tattoo was good and the placement was just she just... didn't want to have a tattoo????). I've my first session with someone who has managed to have had 6 rounds of laser removal on one tattoo in the 10 months or so she's had the tattoo in various shops. She'll get good advice off me RE pacing and the age of her ink and then probably decide I'm just poo poo at it and go elsewhere but hey!

A lot of people I talk to about it don't really get that removal is a painstaking process that you need to really space out and ends up taking 2ish years if you're being cautious and trying to do burn or damage the skin. And then you get these YouTube vids of beauty therapists hitting people with like 800+v at 10ish hertz and it's like pappapapapapap and smoke everywhere
