By its technical name, 'intradermal pigmentation,' is something that can be treated by any plastic surgeon with skill. However, any competent, sterile tattoo facility can still yield similar results for a fraction of the cost.
Permanent cosmetic tattooing, at its inception, seemed primarily a means to offer a permanent cosmetically enhanced appearance for women who wished to have their eye-liner and eyebrows permanently tinted or lined.
The practice has come full circle now however, and is being applied in situations involving much more serious skin and scarring issues. Women who have been the victims of domestic violence can use permanent cosmetics to cover scars and enhance their appearance.
Of course, the practice is still viable and useful as a means to cover tattoos that are no longer wanted, although permanent tattoo removal cannot be achieved with the process, covering or lightening the appearance of a tattoo is readily achieved.
Although, tattoo removal, cover-up tattoos, and cosmetic tattoos can be obtained readily at most of the best tattoo studios, there are few professional permanent cosmetic tattoo artists in the United States at this time.
If you would like a consultation for a cover-up tattoo, or for the application of permanent cosmetics in RI, contact Inflicting Ink Tattoo Studio for an appointment, or simply walk-in at any time during normal business hours and speak to one of their licensed, qualified tattoo artists.

Tattoos in the Workplace ~ The Stigma Finally Dies
As any tattoo enthusiast will tell you, there are, or have been in the past, certain places where you just know you're going to have to cover-up your body art. Places like, corporate offices, and certain family gatherings, where revealing your tattoo may be frowned upon.
Happily with the abundance of young people now sporting their own body art and custom tattoos, and being very proud to do so, the issue is seeing some light at the end of a very long tunnel involving persecution, bias, and judgment, especially in the workplace.
The following article touches nicely on the fact that with more and more companies being run by younger executives, the prevalence of not only tattoos but piercings and body art in general is leading a trend to rid ourselves of the stigma that different equals wrong.
The full article follows below.
November 17, 2010
Junior Taryn Blume got a tattoo of dog paws on her foot a few years ago and would only cover it up for a job interview, "depending on the shoes I was wearing," she said.
However, John Challenger, CEO of Challenger, Gray & Christmas thinks younger employers are less likely to stigmatize against untraditional appearances.
A Pew Center 2010 study found 15 percent of adults from the baby boomer generation have tattoos, compared to 38 percent of 18-29 year-olds. Out of that 38 percent, half of the 18-29 year-olds have two to five tattoos.
"I have four tattoos in places you can see if I'm wearing a t-shirt," said Jordan Smith, a junior on the football team. "I don't care if people see them and I don't think it will affect me getting a job because I can hide them if I really need to."
A tattoo on Jordan's arm reads "Love" or "Hate," depending on which side up you read it.
Senior basketball player Amanda Smith said she does care about where her two tattoos are, and made a point to place them in areas that would not be visible in work clothes. "I thought about placement a lot before I got them because I didn't want them to affect my job opportunities," she said.
Sarah Bolasevich, another Stonehill student, says that body art shouldn't be a concern of employers to begin with. "If people truly appreciate my mind, they won't care about my ink," she says.
Bolasevich has two tattoos, a bracelet that means "all will be well in the end" strung together with the word ‘hope' and her favorite Emily Dickinson poem on her rib cage, "just in case I forget that I stand for the service of others," she said.
Ryder Kern and Cameron Marston said that if you have a tattoo that you're happy you got, and that really means something to you, you shouldn't have to worry about hiding it.
"My tattoo is family oriented and I got it with my older brother, which was a bonding experience" Kern said. "I don't think that a tattoo anywhere other than my face would get in the way of being hired."
Marston, who has two tattoos, also has them in places that can easily be covered but doesn't worry about them in terms of his career plans.
Marston has one on his chest depicting a compass rose with an inspirational quote, and one on his ribs of his family crest and his grandmother's name.
"Both are very meaningful to me" he said.

Tattoo or Taboo?
The negative stigma on tattoos in the workplace may be dying out

Tattoo Cover-Up at Inflicting Ink Tattoo Studio
Almost everyone has had a situation in their lives when they had to hide their body art for one reason or another. Hiding your tattoo isn't always easy however. Make-up can rub off and stain clothing, and many tattoos are far too dark to be effected by traditional cover-up methods anyway.
While clothing can be worn strategically to cover some tattoos, those tattoos that are located on parts of the body that would be hard to cover will still need another method. Additionally, depending upon the season, certain articles of clothing might be considered out of place merely for use as a tattoo cover-up.
If you are only interested in a temporary cover-up for your tattoo, doing some research into over the counter airbrush types of cover-up makeup can provide you with the best results. The make-up is applied using an airbrush technique that might be unusual at first, but with practice will become fairly easy.
If you are looking for a permanent tattoo cover-up you will need a consultation with a reputable tattoo artist to determine if the tattoo can be covered at all, and if so, to what degree. You will also need to go over which designs will best do the job of covering up the old ink.
Inflicting Ink Tattoo Studio in Portsmouth RI has highly skilled tattoo artists, working in a sterile environment, who are always happy to discuss your tattoo cover-up project with you.

Tattoo Studio in RI and Tattoo Myths
Myths and Facts About Tattoos
It’s bad luck to get a tattoo of someone’s name… Light colors hurt more… Tattoos bleed a lot… A tattoo needle is only one needle… Tattoos turn blue when they are old… Red ink fades quickly… Anyone who can draw can tattoo… Only sailors, bikers, circus people and tough people get tattoos… Tattoos cost a lot of money… Tattoos are forever…
Many of these urban legends were started a long time ago, when basically some truth did exist in them. Everything from the types of folks who would venture into a tattoo parlor, to the kinds of skin dyes used caused the myths to become popular in the first place.
Modern tattooing however is much more about the art form, hygiene, and appealing to people from all walks of life, than about maintaining any outdated stereotypes and falsehoods. Let’s take a few of these myths about tattooing and turn them into factual statements instead.
Having someone’s name tattooed on your body, while not necessarily bad luck, is a personal choice. And while any relationship can fail, if you already believe that getting their name tattooed on you is a guarantee one way or the other about the outcome then you’re doing it for the wrong reasons anyway. Relationships fail for all kinds of reasons, getting someone’s name tattooed on you is not one of them.
Tattoos do hurt, and depending on your tolerance to pain, some will feel more pain, some less. The light colors are typically done last when the skin is most tender, so to most, these will be the most painful colors. As to other ink colors, tattoo ink innovations have come a tremendously long way. During the 50s and 60s, tattoo ink pigments were not as refined as they are today, so bright colors like red or blue would fade under the elements and normal wear. That is no longer the case however, and all tattoo colors resist fading if properly cared for when healing.
Tattoo needles are clustered together in soldered groups of odd numbers, 3, 5, 7, etc. While most tattoos bleed minimally during the outline, and up to as much as 10 minutes after the shading is done, by the time you leave the shop, the bleeding will have stopped. Your tattoo will be bandaged for hygienic reasons only.
With modern medical advances in dermatology and skin care, tattoos are no longer a forever commitment. Laser tattoo removal and fade creams can remove a tattoo leaving behind no trace.
Stereotypes for tattoos came about at a time when tattoo parlors were rare, unregulated, and often located in seedy areas. Many sailors obtained tattoos according to the myths and legends that said that tattoos and piercings were thought to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck to the wearer. The prevalence of motorcycle enthusiasts who enjoy tattoos is merely a cultural bias. Today, anyone can have a tattoo and no one would even know, and conversely simply because someone does have a tattoo, does not mean they are part of a seedy sub-culture. The prevalence of tattoos in society and among more publicly notable figures has also done a great deal to bring tattooing into its place as a mainstream form of art and personal expression.
