Remember tattoos are an art form and yours belong to you, with that said, if you want to add color to a finished tattoo, by all means, ask your artist if it can be done. Of course, you can‘t put color over solid black but you can add color around it to have it appear as it were part of the original design.
Correspondingly, can you put color ink over a black tattoo?
Covering up old pieces of ink can take time and if they are solid black or even in darker shades, it is possible that the artist will use the ‘white out technique’. This process includes going over darker colored tattoos with white ink in order to try and lighten up the coloring.
Beside above, is it better to get a colored tattoo or black?
Your skin tone is another thing to consider when deciding whether to get a colour tattoo or a black one. Black shows up strongly on all skin tones, so it’s a winner for anyone. … If you’re considering a coloured tattoo, your tattoo artist will be able to guide you on what colours will pop the most against your skin tone.
