Inside: 67 Name Cover Up Tattoo Ideas
Breakups can be very, very emotionally draining. Especially if you’re left with a permanent reminder of your ex on your body. Getting a tattoo design with your partner’s face, name, or initials inked is easier than getting rid of it.
Some talented tattoo artists are able to transform them into something new. This allows them to move on from the past.

31. Rose: Glad JS got a huge, beautiful rose.
32 Summer: This is fantastic. It is possible that this person was in barber school with Summer. Too bad they had to let Summer go. But this little stick figure painter looks like he’s got it under control.
