Sure you can! Just make sure you get a color that will not show that you have a birth-mark where it is at.

Do you have to wait a whole year before covering a scar with a tattoo or can you do it sooner?

it entirely depends on how fast you've healed and how deep and nasty your scar is. Scar tissue tends to be alot different to tattoo than "regular" skin. its best to consult your tattoo artist as each case varies

im not sure......... .. Yes actually a tattoo will.

Can the color of an existing tattoo be changed to a different color?

Most any tattoo can be touched up or recolored by a professional tattooist... Tho keep in mind this may be a lil' more painful than the original piece, as now we are going over scar tissue. All a tattoo is a colored and shaped scar resulting from the application of the ink. Remember always see the professional tattooist, and dont be surprised when he suggests that you need a re-outlining.....90% of those who come to me for re-coloring really need an outline first for the color to stand out against........TatuBaron

What happens if you get a cut over a tattoo?

You will more than likely lose the color on that spot and you will have to get a touch up when the cut heals. Keep A&D ointment on it (or another ointment) so it will not scar and you will be able to have a touchup done.-Shocker

Is getting tattoos removed painful?

Getting a tattoo removed can be extremely painful ! When you get a tattoo removed it usually just leaves a scar of what the tattoo is, it's almost like getting a scarification tattoo, there is honestly no point in even getting a tattoo removed, you will still have it on your skin.
