touch up or cover up?

Two totally different things. Cover ups are extra hard and that is why they are gnerally more expensive.

I think bc my tattoo is so old, I'm 47 now, but got my tattoo at 18, that touching it up would be the same as redoing it? So, that could be a misunderstanding on my part.

definitely sounds like a redo type deal if its a blob like you mentioned, touch ups are more if theres a couple spots color faded out or didnt take fully post healing

OK yeah, that changes things. I was picturing a standard touch up within a year or two of the tattoo being completed. A touch up on an older tattoo is more like a redo, yes, so it will cost more.

Explicitly asking for 25% tip on top of it is still fucking wild.

Yes, I went and edited my original post. I think me using the word touch up got confusing. That's on me.
