Kat Von D's Journey to 'Blacking Out' Her Tattoos: A Revealing Transformation
Tattoo artist Kat Von D revealed on Instagram that she is in the process of "blacking out" her tattoos, with 80 percent of the work already done after 17 sessions spanning nearly 40 hours. Von D explained that she chose this method instead of laser tattoo removal due to the extensive coverage she wanted to remove. She addressed concerns about health risks, stating that she has never experienced negative effects from tattoos and believes there are more toxic substances in everyday products. Von D decided to cover up her tattoos because they no longer align with her current self and she finds satisfaction in having a clean slate.
