Nipple Disappears Under Tattoo

The thing that strikes me about this nipple tattoo by DTM at Amazing Grace Body Arts in Geneva, NY, is that it’s sort of like a permanent pasty… It actualy kind of freaks me out (which is weird) in a way because it gives the illusion that the nipple is missing. And I like nipples I guess.

    OMFG. That poor nipple! *looks under keyboard*. The fuck did it go?

    Awesome cover-up tho (is that a dodgy heart I can see?).

    I actually had to look a couple times to see ‘where’ the nipple/areola actually were. Wonder how well the line-work will hold on the actual nipple.

    I have a strong desire to touch that. I know it will feel the same, but I’m still curious.

    i had always thought that tattooing over the nipple was a big no-no. most chest piece tattoos i’ve ever seen have always made room for the nipple. any insight on that??

    question: does ink in the areola and nipple itself disperse over time, or does it stay relatively well if placed properly?
