Kat Von D Blacks Out Tattoos After Ditching The Occult For Christ

Kat Von D recently opened up in an interview with Inked Magazine about “satisfying” process of blacking out many of her tattoos. “I think I had been fed up with a lot of the tattoos I got over the years for a long time,” she told the outlet.  “I just couldn’t explain how satisfying it was to see all the messes [tattoo artist Hoode] would clean up with his blackout tattoo work.” She continued, “I think at that time I thought I would just black out an arm, but shortly after, I knew I would end up tattooing my whole body.” She shared more details about her decision to cover her tattoos in a 2022 Instagram post where she said, “Before anyone starts criticizing, I encourage you to remember that it’s ok not to like or even understand things. Trust me, I’ve seen plenty of tattoos I personally would never get. And those differences make this world so much more interesting! So no need to comment any negativity.” She continued, “Just know that I absolutely LOVE it, and it’s extremely refreshing for me to see all the garbage, drunken tattoos I had scribbled all over my leg that I got before I became sober, be covered by sleekness and simplicity.”

Von D has been very vocal about her faith journey over the years. When opening up about her recent baptism, Von D said, “Baptism was a public demonstration of where I stand with my faith and basically letting people know that I’m not ashamed. And so that’s why I really wanted to share it with people…Baptism is so beautiful and it’s such a big landmark in time. For me, at least, it was one of the most important days of my life.” The former tattoo artist opened up about how she came to Christianity in an episode of the “Relatable” podcast with Allie Beth Stuckey, where she and her husband had a realization. “I kind of…give [my husband] the credit,” she said. “I came downstairs and he just said, ‘Hey, babe, I think we got it wrong. I think we got a lot of things wrong.’” They started reading articles and watching videos, reevaluating their religious choices, which included witchcraft at the time. “I started just kind of reevaluating, kind of going down the list of what I’m doing with my life and what my perspectives are,” Von D explained. “A friend had sent me a sermon from Pastor Jack Hibbs, and I loved it. It really spoke to me and answered a lot of questions I had.”
