I want you to walk out loving your tattoo, whether it’s your first or your tenth. Every piece gets my full attention, and I don’t rush the process. ### What You Get - Tattoos that look sticker-like, with sharp details and HD clarity. - Hygiene is tumbaa important to me. I use only sealed, new needles and show you everything before starting. - No side effects - just clean work that heals well. ### Tattoo Styles I Love - **Realistic portrait tattoo** is my main thing. I’ve done portraits of Amma, Appa, kids, and even grandparents. I try to capture their soul, not just their face. - **Cover-up tattoo for scars** and old faded designs. If you have a jatra tattoo or blade marks, I can turn it into something positive. - **Name tattoos** in Kannada script or English, with custom fonts and symbols like crowns or infinity signs. - Spiritual themes (Shiva, Trishul, Krishna flute), animals, nature, custom armbands, and 3D tattoo design. ### Laser Tattoo Removal Process If you want a fresh start, I offer safe laser tattoo removal. It takes 3-4 sessions, and you’ll see results after each one heals (about 25 days). It stings a bit, but most people say it’s manageable. ### How I Work - We sit and talk about your idea first. - I make a stencil so you see the design before we start. - Only when you’re happy, I begin the tattoo. Nimmellara preeti tumbaa important (Your love means a lot). Tattoo andre ondu kale (Tattoo is an art). Thanks for trusting me with your stories. ## Highlights Browse through Vijay Akash's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/vijayakashartist/tattoo-tattoo-removal/featured) - [Video: This is the power of a cover-up tattoo.
