16 People Who Didn’t Let a Scar or Birthmark Define Them and Instead Turned Them Into Tattoos

Scars and sometimes birthmarks can be very unpleasant for people to look at and that’s why they choose to cover them with tattoos. What you should know about scar tattoos is that they will most probably hurt more. This is because even when a scar has fully healed, the tissue remains scarred and therefore more susceptible to pain. Not only that, but there are a few other things to think about before moving forward with a decision like this.

Now I’ve Seen Everything would like to send some love to all the people out there who don’t enjoy seeing their scars every single day and remind them that they can cover them up beautifully with a tattoo.

• I knew I was going to try to cover it up with ink as soon as it happened. I went to my tattoo artist who did my other arm sleeve and he said he wouldn’t touch it for at least a year. I went to my dermatologist and to see what she would say and we decided to hold off another couple of months and it was almost 2 years out from the incident and we all agreed it was time.
