Safe And Effective Self-Harm Tattoo Coverup With Pearl Lemon Tattoo
Depression is something that affects many people from all walks of life. It is a mental illness that can negatively impact the life of someone affected by it. These effects can be mild, like taking a while to get up from bed, or severe, like inflicting self-harm.
Self-harm is exactly what it sounds like; it is when someone hurts themselves to cope with difficult emotions, a painful past or situations and experiences that are overwhelming, even in Central London.
Recovering from self-harm is a massive achievement and should be celebrated. Someone who has recovered from self-harm may feel like their self-harm scars are a badge of victory, but others may see it as a reminder of a painful part of their lives, especially in Central London where the pressures and pace of life can exacerbate such struggles.
That’s why self-harm tattoo coverup is so important to so many people. This is why Pearl Lemon Tattoo would like to offer this service. If you or anyone you know would like a self-harm tattoo coverup, call us today.

How Our Self-Harm Tattoo Coverup Service Can Help Victims
The art of tattooing is often falsely criticised as a form of self-harm. This is completely and utterly false. Getting tattoos can help you cope with any self-harm thoughts and urges that you might have, even in Central London.
How can getting a tattoo prevent you from self-harming?
Many people cite that the ‘buzz’ of getting a new tattoo can replace the sense of brief euphoria created by self-harming. It is just important that tattooing should not be used as a crutch.
Another way tattoos can help self-harm survivors is by bringing about change. Tattoos can give someone confidence and a sense of power.
Self-harm is often about control and the loss thereof. Inking tattoos on their body gives survivors of self-harm agency and control over their bodies. They choose when to ink their bodies and what they want to express through that inking.
Getting tattoos can be an act of reclamation. It can help self-harm survivors take ownership of their bodies by reclaiming any scarred skin and turning it into gorgeous art. It is a reminder that their body no longer belongs to the pain and scars that they have inflicted upon themselves.
Inspirational Tattoos We Can Help You Get For A Self-Harm Tattoo Coverup
Self-harm is often linked to suicide attempts, and one way in which tattoos can play a positive role in the fight against self-harming is through the use of inspirational iconography.
If you are looking for inspiration, here are a few meaningful tattoo concepts you can draw inspiration from in Central London.
Lotus Flower Tattoos
Lotus flowers represent rebirth, strength, personal growth, and spiritual enlightenment. It is, therefore, no surprise that many choose these as a symbol of a renewed life blossoming into something great in Central London.
Serotonin Tattoos
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter often considered vital to the mental health of an individual. Getting a serotonin tattoo can be a gentle reminder that you deserve happiness regardless of the situation you might find yourself in.
The Semi-Colon
The semi-colon is often a tattoo that people who have survived a suicide attempt get inked on their skin. It serves as a reminder that their life could have ended (a full stop), but it merely paused (a semi-colon), allowing their life to continue.
