Keep thinking about it
This tattoo is really starting to get to me, I just want it off my neck :( I'm sick of the looks I get and people always questioning it. like "why did you get it there?" I'm beating myself up so much about this tattoo, sometimes I feel as I really don't wanna be here anymore. My mum is always getting questioned as to why she let me get the tattoo were it was, even though I'm old enough. its really not fair on her and feel like I've put all this on her. I have just really feel like I've screwed up my whole life. I'm sick of getting weird looks at work. Yeah people compliment it but it never makes me feel any better. I'm going to book some consultations for lazer treatment but I'm scared it will make it even worse. I'm just so scared and feel really alone :( What do I do? I've started saving for it but its gonna cost so much!
New path way.
Haven't been on this website in a while but I have finally sorted out myself a job! I'm very excited to finally land a awesome job and get saving to get this tattoo removed.
I have decided that I am definitely going to through with this removal, I'm just not sure what time in the year I should start the progress. I was thinking after summer, once it has faded a little bit from the sun.
I've had my up and down days about this tattoo, a lot of people have seen and said "Wow it's so big" "What are you gonna do when your older with it?" and it just completely brings me down and makes me realize I want it removed for good, I'm sick of having to hide it all the time and not being able to wear my hair up without covering it with make up. I think I have decided to go with a laser removal company in Wellington who uses the Q-switched laser and its $200 a session but I'm yet to go in for a consultation she just predicted that from a photo, so I'll book in my appointment for that asap.
Lastly, does anyone have tips on how to hide my tattoo with make up? The company I work for don't mind my tattoo and are happy for me to wear it out at work (as I have to wear my hair up) but I still want to feel more comfortable at work and have it covered as I'm around people a lot and don't want to have judged looks because I know every time someone is looking at it and it makes me very insecure.
Secondly, when do you guys think is the best time in the year to start the removal? Winter? Summer? Im not too sure, just want you thoughts.
Thanks all, really love your kind words, really helps me though this progress and help my decision and I'm not the only one.

My tattoo
Here is my tattoo. it looks like a solid black in the photos but it isn't, its very feathery and shaded and it didnt take long for the tattooist to do so I'm pretty sure he didn't go over anything.
