Let’s get one thing straight: removing a tattoo doesn’t mean you hate tattoos. In fact, many of our clients at Reth-Ink are heavily tattooed artists, collectors, and body mod lovers. They just happen to want one (or five) pieces gone.
It’s time to break the myth that tattoo removal is only for people with “regret.” Sometimes, it’s about evolution, healing, or just making room for something better. (video is of a collector who is removing her back tattoo to cover it with something that they love more than vagina virgin mary/star wars collab)
💡 Tattoo Removal ≠ Tattoo Regret
Here’s what people don’t talk about:You can adore the art of tattooing — and still outgrow certain pieces.
Maybe the ink reminds you of a time that doesn’t fit anymore.Maybe the work just wasn’t done well (you know the one).Maybe you want a fresh canvas for something bolder, brighter, more you.
That’s not regret. That’s refinement.
🖤 Real Clients, Real Reasons (No Shame Required)
S., 29: “I’m a tattoo artist. I love my tattoos — but one was a stick-and-poke I did at 17 and it looks like a cursed blobfish. I’m covering it with something meaningful now that I have more skill and taste.”
E., 34: “After a breakup, I didn’t want to laser off my ex’s name out of bitterness. I just wanted to move forward. It felt like a clean reset.”
M., 40: “I had beautiful ink, but after top surgery I wanted a blank space on my chest to reclaim as my own.”
