Cover Ups and Touch Ups

Some tattoos deserve a second chance. Touch ups and cover ups are a specialty at Golden Octave Tattoo Co, and we approach every one with the same calm, care and attention to detail we bring to custom work.

Touch ups

Time, sun and healing can soften a tattoo. A touch up can restore clarity and color so your piece looks the way it was meant to.

Cover ups

Whether a tattoo no longer fits who you are or simply did not turn out right, a thoughtful cover up can turn it into something you are proud to wear. Every cover up is custom designed around the existing tattoo, your anatomy and your story.

How it works

  1. Send us your idea. Share photos of your existing tattoo and anything you have in mind through our Send Us Your Idea form.
  2. Free in person consultation. We look at the existing tattoo together and talk through size, placement, style and what is possible.
  3. Custom design. Your artist designs the piece, and you review it before anything is tattooed.
  4. Your session. Larger cover ups may take more than one appointment. We will walk you through timing and preparation.

Styles

Our artists work in many styles, including realism, intentional tattoos, neo traditional, traditional, geometric, full color, black and grey, fine line and more.

Pricing

Our shop minimum is $100 and pricing varies by artist. Consultations are free; deposits are collected if you move forward and are generally non refundable.
