Question I got a tattoo on the top of my foot about a year ago, and the tattoo artist did press to hard on a certain area and the ink spread across my foot.
I was reading the other answers you have given, and I don't want to have more added to the tattoo on my foot. Is that the only way to have the problem fixed? Because I always have to explain to everyone why I have a blue foot, and would really like to fix it if at all possible without changing or added to the current tattoo
Answer Kayleigh-
Generally the only way to deal with ink spread is to either alter the design or have ink removed.
The thing about feet is that there does tend to be more prone to spreading than other parts of the body.
You can talk to your artist to see what s/he may recommend, there may be a way to alter the tattoo without really changing the design (make the lines a bit thicker etc).
