# Dana Sha > Danasha (Dana Shasho) an award-winning tattoo artist with 12 years of experience, with Master’s degree in Fine Arts and background in medical studies. My work is about celebrating the body, building confidence, and expressing what you carry within. My designs are created around the shape and movement of each individual body, with patterns inspired by tribal art and organic forms. Each tattoo is designed to flow with you — like a second skin. My Vision Helping people feel comfortable and proud in their bodies. I use tattooing as a way to transform areas of the body that may carry difficult memories, insecurities, or personal experiences into something beautiful and empowering. - Email: danashasho@gmail.com - Address: Goa, India - **Can tattoos be created over scars?** Scarred skin may sometimes be tattooed, but it needs careful assessment because scar tissue can differ from surrounding skin. The scar needs to be at least 18 on the old to be tattooed , and to have a doctor examine it to determine if it is healed and ready to be tattooed. Then we start a discussion of what we can tattoo based on the skin condition, your personal preferences and body placement. - **What should I consider before getting a tattoo?** It is helpful to think about the design, placement, personal meaning, and how the tattoo fits your body and lifestyle. If you’re traveling to get a big project done, It’s helpful to be prepared for an intense experience, whether it’s pain while getting tattooed, healing time or just the adjustment to a big change done in a short time . - **How can I travel to you if I live far away?** I have clients from all around the world . We plan 6-12 months ahead their travel, so you can prepare for your trip. I make an effort to complete the tattoo project we planned in one trip. I can recommend accommodation and guide lines to traveling to India . It might take time , but if you really want it - it can happen . And it’s worth it ! - **Who can participate in The Scar Project?** The Scar Tattooing Workshop is for experienced tattoo artists of any style or genre who want to learn how to approach scar tattooing safely, respectfully, and with a deeper understanding of the skin and the people behind the scars. It’s for artists who want to expand their skills, help people transform the way they see their bodies, and become part of a movement to make quality scar tattooing more accessible—so people don’t have to travel across the world to find an artist they trust. ## Services - [Body flow tattoos](https://danashatattoo.com/services/transformative-custom-tattoos.md): A custom tattoo designed to move naturally with your body. - [Scar Coverup tattoos](https://danashatattoo.com/services/scar-covering-tattoos.md): Transforming scars into meaningful body art, with designs created to honor the skin, your story, and the body you live in. - [Workshops](https://danashatattoo.com/services/mastectomy-tattoos.md): Upcoming Scar cover up workshops: 23-24 October / TLV 11-13 December / Goa - [The Scar Project](https://danashatattoo.com/services/scar-tattoo-workshop.md): Upcoming workshop: 3 day scar covering workshop in December.
