The teal ink bled again and I let Angie know right away. She said she would check with her boss to see what to do about it ... and I haven't heard back. So I'm not happy or impressed with their service.
I imagine the two options are ... (1) recoloring the tattoo with another colour and hope it does bled or (2) outline the tattoo with another colour to cover the bleeding. I don't want to do either option.
So I've gone to a tattoo removal firm and started the process of having the bleeding lasered out.

August 30:
I got a couple tattoos at the beginning of August at 8 Ink Tattoos Inc in Pacific Mall. They guarantee to fix anything within three months. I went this afternoon for some touch-ups with Angie.
The heart had some thin spots so Angie made them thicker.
Here are me and Angie afterwards.

I've been wanting to get a couple more tattoos for a while. I was going to get them when I got back from vacation with my sister in April ... but then COVID hit. Our vacation was cancelled and most businesses closed.
Tattoo shops were allowed to open under Stage 2 last month in Toronto so I sent an email to a couple local shops. They responded asking what I wanted but I didn't hear back from them to commit.
A friend posted on Instagram that she had gotten a tattoo from Angie, a friend of hers who works at 8 Ink Tattoos Inc in Pacific Mall. I messaged back and forth last night with Angie and made appointment for noon today.
And there's Angie ...
I wanted these tattoos, though I changed the colours:
Ta -da!!
The teal ink had bled so let Angie know right away. She said she could fix it. Well, she couldn't fix it. A couple suggestions she had were to outline it in a different colour (I didn't want it outlined) or tattoo a water colour over it to hide the bleeding. I didn't want that either. I suggested that she widen the lines to colour over the ink bleeding. I didn't want to do this either but I didn't know what else to do. She said she would use a different size needle so the ink wouldn't bled. Guess what? It bled again!
