Tatted Mom
Tucson, AZ
Female, 32
I'm a tattoo artist who underwent a standard apprenticeship under a certified tattoo artist. I am an artist first, tattooer second, which means I put creativity and art into my tattoos, not just the 'you pick it, we stick it' type of tattooer. Apprenticeships for tattooing vary by state, according to the laws. I'm also a trained body piercer, as well. Any questions about the job or apprenticing, I'd be happy to help!
PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT price tattoos. Seek a shop for that.
Shouldn't be an issue at all. Many times a background is added behind an existing tattoo.

Honestly, I don't recommend getting a tattoo when you are 14. Not only is your body still dramatically changing, which could result in an awkward tattoo when you are older, but your body is still growing, so what would be a forearm tattoo now won't be centered on your forearm once you stop growing. Plus, you have no idea what you want to do as a career when you are older, and a forearm tattoo could hinder you from pursuing certain career fields. PLUS, your taste as a 14 year old will be drastically different than when you are an adult, and I can almost 99% guarantee you will regret whatever tattoo you got at 14. Please don't get tattooed for at least another 4 years. Wait until you are older. You will thank me later.

You can definitely go over it with a darker blue. Purple would work, too. Reds or pinks over blue will cause it to have a slight purple tinge, just as yellow over it will make it look green.

Tricky question to answer. Tattoos can be shaded, yes, even if blacklight ink is used. Now, blacklight ink is brighter than regular ink, so, in my opinion, it can look a little cartoony just because it's a neon color.
Please note, too, that blacklight ink is NOT FDA approved to be tattooed onto humans like those websites tell you. It's FDA approved to tag fish for classification purposes. AND, blacklight ink does NOT last as long as regular ink. My advice on blacklight ink is to pass on it. It's more expensive than regular ink, so the tattoo artist generally charges more, and it only sticks around for, on average, a year. I'd get a regular tattoo and forget about the blacklight ink.

I'm missing a question somewhere. If you are asking if the the ink around the word 'with' can be removed, the answer is no. If the rest of the tattoo is fine, but the 'with' looks thicker than the rest, then your tattoo artist "blew" the word 'with', meaning they went too deep into your skin and the ink spread. There's nothing you can do about blown lines in a tattoo, sorry.
