    Just so ya know, getting them tattooed over will not completely hide the stretch marks, they will still be visible. Its something I've thought of doing many times myself!

    You shouldnt be looking for a tattoo artist thats good at covering stretch marks, but rather good at the style of tattoo that you want. If the only reason for getting it is to try to hide the stretch marks though, I think you should thing long and hard about if you will be happy with the tattoo, or will you still dislike it as it cannot completely mask them?

    hey again, yeah i know they wont be hidden but i really want a big tattoo, ive got two small ones already and ive got the bug...! was thinkin of a few different designs but have settled on these flowers for about six months now for exactly why you were saying, cause i wanted to make sure i really did want it. but i thought some people were better at tattoing delicate skin like that than others... maybe im wrong though and should consider the stlye first like you were saying.... now im confused!!!
