Anyone covering up their tatoos? I'm not sure what to do. They are part of who I am, but they dont look very elegant.
CommentAuthorKaya
Luckily I wont have to as mine are in places that'll be covered by my dress! lol

CommentAuthorrainykins
I'm not covering mine, in fairness i got one done specifially on my back so that it would be on show, mine are mainly on my arms and back anyways i think there will only be two of mine that wont be visible - due to my dress covering them xox
not sure what i would do if i had one in view ... gues its part of you so toughf
lol sorry for the nonsence post ..

No way!
CommentAuthorloucubitt1987
I always swore i wouldnt have a tattoo anywhere it could be seen whilst i wore an evening gown or wedding dress. I do agree if the tattoos are part of who you are then you shouldnt feel the need to cover them, but then at the same time, i do feel there are times when tattoos take away from the elegance of an outfit. just my opinion, but ultimatly you need to decide if you want to show them or not. xx
CommentAuthorlozzer50
ill be showing mine off in fact my shoes and accessories will be the same colour as the tattoo on my arm!! the tattoo on my arm is beautiful its a fab row of blue flowers , i have others 2 which will covered by sleeves not because i feel i have to but im getting married in winter so ill have sleeves on my dress!!
CommentAuthorloubie100
Im not covering mine but to be honest its only the 1 on my wrist that will be showing and that is my daughters name so will defo not be covering that x
CommentAuthorangelan1986
I was thinking of this today actually because mine is on the back of my neck and i dont want it showing when im saying my vows, guess im going to have to leave my hair down which i didnt want to do x
CommentAuthorChrissy~MrsFaulds2b
I've got a rose on the top of my right arm and i'm not covering it up. I don't think it's offensive and if ppl don't like the fact that it's on show, they can leave.
CommentAuthorAtaraxia
Mine are covered by my dress as I can't have anything visible in the work I want to do, but I would probably cover mine up if I had any visible ones - wouldn't want anything to distract from the dress or ring.

CommentAuthormrscooper2beee
im not covering mine up, like you say they are part of who we are. My h2b on the other hand has '666' on the back of his head! which i would love him to cover it up for our wedding but that aint gonna happen, at least we are not getting married in a church!
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
I'm covering mine up as its on my shoulder and its something I did as a 15 year old and don't really like now! I know bad of me to do it so young and the guy should never have done it but we all make mistakes. I'm using a special concealer my friend gave me that blends into my own skin and you can't see the tattoo or the make up. I think she got it from QVC a while back and it is for people with bad marks on their face etc.
CommentAuthorKimi
I'd never cover up a tattoo if i had one. Although I am waiting until AFTER my wedding to get my first tatt. :)
The days are flying by, can't wait :)
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
i really dont see the point in having them if your going to cover them up,as dicussed in other identical posts,i was proud to show mine off,my main tattoo was used to design our wedding invites,so i made sure it was on show between my shoulder blades
CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
I think if its something that you like then its all well and good to show them off but mine is a mistake I made at 15. I wouldn't want the world to see that. If I had the money I would have it removed and something I like put in its place. I love tatts just not the one I have.
CommentAuthorCowChop
I'm not covering mine, you can only see 1 of mine in my dress but they are part of me so if anyone doesn't like it thats their problem. x
CommentAuthorsouthern
4 or 5 of mine will be on show, maybe more depending on if my feet show. I love my tatts :)
CommentAuthorangelan1986
i only got my tattoo in august and regretted it immediatly but i always wanted 1 and now im stuck with it :O( oh well. my sister has got 1 on her shoulder and it is "taz" the tazmanian devil and he is holding a pint of lager, thinking of ways to cover it but cant think of anything lol x
CommentAuthorhayleypooh
I won't be covering mine up either everyone knows I love them x
CommentAuthorGoff
Theres LOADS of things to cover that with angelan
But i've lost count of how many times we had people on the studio with a "I just want a tattoo, any will do" attitude - and they regret it.
if you get inked, you have to make sure you can live with it FOREVER. Tattoos are NOT fashion statements, they are a lifelong commitment.
And no - I wont be covering any of mine.... nor will mark.

CommentAuthorZoe Kay
My H2B just said - why would anyone cover their tattoos , unless they don't want them ..... He also said My tat is part of me and he knows that part of me (if you get my drift) said it would be odd if i hid it .. :) I have a serpent on my shoulderxx
CommentAuthor*Vixie*
ill only have one of my tats out, the other 4 are covered by my dress as theyre on my legs and ribs. im not actively trying to cover them, i love my tattoos and piercings! even had my nose pierced 6 weeks ago so that it would be healed up completely by the wedding. h2b loves my "decorations" as he calls them. xx
CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
Well i have 3 and only one needs to be cover and will be by my dress and that is only coz my dad still doesnt think i have it. The other two will be on show. I am going to be gettnig another one soon so that will be next to my rose i had done when my grandad died so i am having a lily done for my nan
Cant wait to to marry Martyn
Wishes the wedding would come faster
XxX
CommentAuthorKerrylou
Mine are on my lower back so won't be on show. It's a very personal choice - if they're a part of your identity then you shouldn't feel the need to cover them up because of what other people might think BUT if you want to cover them up because you don't want them to detract from your dress then that's cool too. Whatever makes you happy xxx
It's right what they say

CommentAuthorfelicity.h
im having (well hoping to) add more to the one on my left wrist. i have a cross. I think im going to have the flowers from my bouquet added to it some how (ill know before hand as im have artificial) my other wrist is taurus my star sign. The actual word but its written in a way. i dont know the proper name for it but you can read it the right way both ways up. So hard to explain. The only thing i regret about them is there bother black and a little chunky but i can sort that with girly bits :) id never get rid of them and they'll most likely be on show.
I really want a part sleeve but not until after the wedding. as i am gonig for a more eligent style, also i havent quite got the guts yet ahaha
CommentAuthorgrumpyoldmoo
I want to cover mine up. well one of them, which has faded with age and now looks a complete mess :(

CommentAuthorCroc
I am getting lazer removal at the moment for my tattoo, it's on my arm at the top, yes my tattoos are who I am and part of me but this one in particular isn't me now I like it still but that tattoo is my past if that makes sense and I am going in to my future and don't want my past to follow me so as a symbol of that I am having it removed before the wedding.
Blooming hurts like hell almost like a chip pan fire under the skin
I defo do agree thou that tattoos shouldn't be done on a whim, mine wearnt but this one tattoo is a part of my past I don't want anymore as I am not that person any more, but will be replacing it and getting new ink in the future :0) xx
