The moth tattoo is stunning. Heidi did a fantastic job with balancing it with the arm and neck piece as well. Omg

I love that the moth looks like it's landing on the flower

Gotta say love the 50s pinup rockabilly vibes you have in this video! Stunning!

Personally I like the white line work flowers being a bit more faded, like they are in the "background" and aren't competing with your larger flowers. I think it would look great if you filled in those larger black patches with a bunch of white ink flowers to subtly give some more character to those areas without taking away the overall aesthetic of the piece.

The little flowers are so lovely, they remind me of drawings on a chalkboard 🤍

I was gonna say the same thing!

I’d like to see you get one touched up. It would be cool to see how much more vibrant it would be. Love the idea!❤

I'd do the experiment doing another pass over one! I think the unique ways all of our bodies heal ink in skin is such a great part of the journey.

I'd love to see you get one of them touched up to see the difference. id love to see the intricate work from your blackwork floral translate into the whitework designs.

You’re looking fab as always Lauren. I love your hair clip ❤️

You're out here doing research for all of us 🧡🧡

I like the way they look. It's like when you take a pencil and rub it over indent paper (if that makes sense) ♡

My theory re: the difference in brightness is the skin on your forearm goes through more wear & tear in general, not just the sun. Either way, they look dope af

I’ve been watching some of your older vids and its such a shock to see you without tats. Always beautiful but I really think your aesthetic now suits you so well. As for the white over black. I’d be doodling white all over that black area. It would add such a cool affect almost receding into the background and only noticeable up close. 🤩

Ahhh I think Roly mentioned these tats briefly in a recent vid and I’ve been hoping you’d make a video update on them!! You look gorgeous as always xx

Thank you for exposing the dark side of tattoos darling because people simply don't know ..and I have many tattoos but I wish that I would of had someone like you to filter stuff

Love how the line work flowers healed! They’re very cool looking, and I love the combination of the two styles /textures. It’s quite interesting to see as well! Thanks for always being super transparent about this sort of topic! :)

Your collection is incredible!! Can't wait to see it complete!

Honestly if you can get pierced by Christina I would 100% recommend- she is so amazing 💕💕

YES! keep these coming friend! WE LOVE YOU!

Beautiful as always lauren

Color on blackout requires multiple sessions to really stand out. Also, more black around the white will make them stand out more. Seeing what Ephemeral Remy has done with color over black, you could really do a lot with white flowers over black. Love that you're experimenting with it!

I’ve got a white ink tattoo on a black ink one for 2 years now, and mine is more noticeable than yours. My tattoo artist explained to me that for this to work, you need to 1/ use a thick white ink, because the more liquidy the ink is, the less pigmented it is; and 2/ it’s best to wait several years after the black work has been done, minimum two years. As for me I did it 10 years after the black one, we did one touch up and it pops out really good 🤩

This is good information. I got a solid black tattoo transformers logo from 13 years ago that has faded to that typical “slight green” look and has gotten fuzzy with age. I’m about to go in and redo it properly with color and some parts of it use white ink. I’m not looking for a miracle, but the tattoo definitely needs to be touched up and re crisped no matter what. The artist seems pretty confident because I was open to doing a full on cover up instead.

They look great! I'm getting tattooed by Heidi next month and I'm super excited for it!

Honestly i think the contrast on them is perfect!

Love ur videos. Saw this pop up this morning and it’s greatly appreciated, I’ve had a rough time from Thursday afternoon to yesterday with my psychosis and stuff. Thank u for making great content all the time ❤❤❤❤

I love your black work sleeve and neck tattoo so so so much!!!!! I can never see enough of them.

i didn't know much about white or colour over black until recently. i got my furby tattoo finished after my artist moved shops and i was following the people that also work there and the manager is actually a tattoo youtuber named Ephemeral Remy who had basically his entire body blacked out but now has really gorgeous colour work on top of it

Conch piercings are great! Took forever to heal, though. I fought with it for 1.5 years. But now that it's healed, I love it and have had no issues with it.

Thanks for the update! Doing white or color over blackwork is something I find very interesting. I'm not yet heavily tattooed, but I'm working on it, and I like knowing what options are out there (besides laser removal) just in case I ever find myself not liking (or wanting a drastic re-work of) any of my pieces 😊

dark hair looks stunning on you

I love Lunar moths here in the southern US. You are a very good person, hope your channel grows.

ooooohh I’ve been waitin for this one

Your blackwork sleeve is gorgeous

i just got my first tattoo (a memorial paw print for my dog) the other day, and took the second skin off this morning - it's looking good so far, excited to see how it heals up in the coming months! your moth is super cool and the white flowers are so cute, they balance the negative space flowers in the blackwork really nicely!

They're really cute. They remind me of that foil art where you scratch off the designs with a scraper pen tool thing. They look lovely x

Absolutely gorgeous Lauren you should do some modelling.

I'm still used to looking for videos an hour earlier! 😂 Thanks for showing us your progress with them so far! Looking amazing as usual - apart from your burping issues, I hope life is treating you and Tom well! 😊

They look lovely. It would be interesting to just do the petals on one to compare. It will do doubt get brighter each time, like an osmotic effect from layering. Very cool to see the process.🌸

Love the peeps are Black Sheep! Josh is incredible

All of your tattoos are STUNNING. It must be amazing to be able to see them everyday 😊😊 you have impeccable taste!

More passes the better. I like the 1 pass look. Nice and low key

that white over black healed unexpected and looks awesome i cannot describe how its healed but its like chalk and looks awesome. so bold while over black works pretty good. thought at first it goind to show the black nuderneath and make it gray in time ( maybe as it ages) but since its bold, the black was replaced with the white and looks quite awesome.

I love how subtle white ink looks too! I have my white ink hand pieces and it's only a few people who point it out whenever I'm really cold that it shows more!

Hi Lauren! 😊 Just a quick message to say that I really love your KZread channel! 💜 I like tattoos, but I'm not exactly a huge tattoo fan.

Even before my first tattoo I have gone in with the mindset that I’d be happy to blackout anything in the event I eventually got unhappy with a tattoo and have loved the idea of doing white over black work so this is really cool to see

I love that sleeve! I have been saving a whole blank arm for something I really love… and I am considering the black but since it’s blank now, I could have the entire thing done with negative space designs! But I’d have to be REALLY choosy about that artist because my area doesn’t have the most skilled artists…. I trust them with most tattoos but I would be traveling for that one!

@@maenad1231 absolutely! For my sleeve I travel several hours and pay double, but it’s worth it! My more simple or silly tattoos (like tomorrow I am getting a spaceship abducting a cat in a beam 😂 and next to that I have a shadow of a cat walking on a rope lol) my local artists do a great job on those…. But I have a portrait planned for my thigh, and my black/negative space sleeve that I want, I’ll be doing a ton of research and traveling for those!

I have two blackout sleeves with white American traditional sleeves on top. Both are a couple years old. The white stays well, just one pass. The sun will make the white ink yellow a bit. I generally stay out of the sun as black out sleeves tend to capture A LOT of heat

i definitely think u should get a second pass if u can so u can further get an idea of the possibilities with white ink! it’s super exciting and opens up many doors for new ideas ps i hope ur rcpd improves soon and u can have an easier time with it! ❤❤❤

I loveeeee how the white looks It’s reminds me of a chalk board kinda A bunch more florals in the black areas I think would look so cool in contrast to the actual negative space florals from the original blastover 🤤🤤🤤. Just love it So yeah personally wouldn’t touch them up just add a bunch more lol. I’m obsessed with the how complete and cohesive the addition of the moth made the whole neck tattoo look Stunning!!!!!!

I booked my next tattoo and I’m so excited for it! Your moth tattoo is amazing btw!

Yaaaaaay 🥳

Remy swears by using black as well as the white for extra contrast, if you do touch them up maybe that could be something to consider? They look sick though!

I’m curious to see you do more details on one of your flowers, more realistic like your others with different line weights… I wonder how it would heal and how long it would hold! Hope your next round of shots helps! ❤❤❤

I love your black work sleeve so damn much I am starting to get black work tats now because I love the dark black look! Work8ng on a black work leg sleeve now ❤❤❤❤❤

Love you good luck with throatox!

My first tattoo was on my chest, starting on top of my collar bone to the top of my breast tissue. It was unfortunate the really dark black ink (I dont remember the term for it) and the artist who did it messed up the stencil during so it does not look like it is supposed to. The only way to really "fix" it is to add white to define the shape more and fill it in properly. I'm glad so many are getting white on black so I can be realistic about my expectations during and after healing

Love all you're tattoo's lauren they are a part of what makes beautiful you are always interesting

I like them so much 🥰 I think it would be interesting to go over the one on your lower arm and see how they compare 😊

I love the necklace and the shirt

Absolutely stunning work on the arm and chest. I know it's your body so whatever your esthetic is go for it. I love the imbalace though, and I think the blank spots in the chest make the moth pop out more than if everything got filled in

Wonder how it holds in time (after the passes), nice to see.

Touch up! I really would like to know if that would improve it or not ❤

Beautiful lady with beautiful style and tattoos. I think they healed lovely, and I do think it would be interesting to touch up one and see the difference. Love the idea of the conch piercing, that's my next piercing as well. Hope all is well and happy greetings from California, USA..Adore your content ❤😊

are you still thinking about getting your back blacked out and adding white ink on top or did this experiment change your mind? love your content

The moth is beautiful! I'd probably have one touched up just to see how it goes.

I like the flowers as is. Leave the chest. It's a good combo of dark awesome with peeka boo skin.

I'm in the same spot. I have a space area on my upper arm and we did white over black for stars and some are bright and some are very faded and idk if I want to go over it again or leave it

I feel like I would get one touched up to see what that looks like. I feel like because it’s white over such an ink heavy area, the black spread into the white space a bit. I think if your goal is to do your whole back blacked out with white on top I would want to see if it’s worth doing two passes over since it would be a lot of work to do that

Red is definitely a great color on you! ❤🌹💥❗️🥀🍒💄

White on black is so damn cool. Please get at least one touched up to see how it comes out! Looking lovely as always, have a good one

Have you ever experienced body dysmorphia after getting a large piece? I posted something on Reddit about it I haven’t seen anyone talk about it?

I vote for touching up one and seeing what the difference is!

I got a bamboo needle tattoo in Thailand big arse wolf. I then later added a needle tat of a dreamcatcher and a water colour tat going through it like paint strokes. Ive always wondered if i could add white to my tat to make it lighter, give my wolf some shade or highlights. Maybe now thats possible 😮

Oh, get the touch-up, girl.

Out line the white with a darker black

I would get the flower on your forearm touched up, just for research purposes and if it does make it brighter that’s not a bad thing.

Personally I'm in favor of touching up the inner forearm flower!

I was wanting to get white tattooed into the white spots of the panda tattoo I got but didn't dick tattoo artist said no no no just wouldn't do it no matter what so I just was like okay I'll get him to do the pandas and I'll get someone else to do the white I haven't even done that and it's been like 10 years I want to get it touched up and then have the white added so it looks new

I was wondering- did you ever have a tattoo infection? I have one right now and even though I am always super careful with the aftercare and only go to professional studios, it still happened and I can't stop thinking about what went wrong (even though I know it is impossible to know what happened and it could literally happen to anyone). With the amount of tattoos you got I was just wondering if you ever had to deal with that. It happened with my 10th tattoo :( but it is healing quite well now, getting better each day.

Not to scare you, but the conch is a hard piercing to heal. Be prepared for the post pain.😅

so beautiful gotta say i love the vids of you exposing artists for shady behavior like kat and ariel and many more did you hear kat converted sounds like she is only doing it for clout tiktok for sure has questionable users like one who made a false claim about the late kurt cobain even though theres no actuall proof kurt identified as such

As a woman online, be very careful with saying where you live. So many of us get an obsessed stalker at some point. It's scary how they are able to triangulate where their targets live and/or work. (I don't mean to freak you out, but it's best to be aware of this risk beforehand.)

Disclaimer: If you're someone who might be looking into doing this kind of design, just understand that white ink can not be reliably removed by laser. Most cases have to involve a plastic surgeon. Some cases people have actually experienced white ink getting darker. The reason for this is cause most white ink has titanium oxide and/or zinc. Most brightly colored inks have a different level of difficulty to them but white ink has proven to be the most challenging. You can actually find all this information on recovery's website. Not trying to bag on her sleeve cause it does look amazing! I just want to put this info out for anyone who's possibly thinking about getting a similar design and might not know this.
