    You can't tattoo over scar tissue. You might be able to camouflage it though.

      Some tattoos can be tattooed over while others cannot. You should ask a tattoo artist, they will be able to give you a absolute answer.

      Never use a cheep and/or shady tattoo shop.

      NEVER!

        Not looking to cover an old tattoo looking to cover self harm scars, to hide them a bit so i can walk around in a tanktop and not have anyone see them if they just glance at my shoulder

          Sorry I meant to say scars I just messed up. Ya but really it really just depends on how bad the scar is. If it is fairly smooth it should be fine, if not they sell stuff to help make it smoother.

        Find a good artist. Explain what you're trying to do and they will work with you to make it happen.

        You can but the scar will show through, it's not a flat surface of skin. That is why I said you may be able to camouflage it. It's still going to be visible. Yes, you can run a needle over a scar but the scar is still there.
