Hi, so glad I stumbled across this site, I don't feel like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill anymore & that's it's normal and ok to feel like this about a tattoo you hate!! I got my newest tattoo on the 12 oct, Just over a week ago!!! It's not my first, I've 4 others and I love them. The newest was something I chose to have that represented something very important to me that I'm sadly moving on from. After much searching I chose an African symbol, a Sankofa and I wanted numbers discreatly working into it so they weren't bold or in your face. I originally wanted it on the inside of my foot just below the ankle bone but I was talked out if this by the tattooist I then stupidly decided on the base of my neck, although ive thought about getting one here before I hadn't given it quite enough thought!! It was placed higher than I asked for so there are very few clothes that hide it :-( the sankofa turned out as the tattooists own take on it as she added her own swirls to it, so it isn't actually a sankofa, just a swirly heart and the significant number 884..... It's smack bang in the middle as bold as anything!! I truly hate it!! I went to another tattoo parlour the day after and they traced it & tried to see if there was any way they could re work it, but it was difficult and just got bigger and bigger! So it's going to have to be a coverup or removal..,. I'm leaning towards removal!! It's my work leaving do this weekend, which is why the number is significant, I was so looking forward to seeing everyone but now I'm so embarrassed by it I don't want to go, I'm thinking of covering it up with some kind of dressing and making an excuse up as to why it's there!! I haven't even been to the gym as its so blatantly visible and I usually go 4 times a week. I Had no idea one small thing could make you feel so bad! It's only just under 2inch x 2 inch and it's not horrific just nothing like what I wanted so to me it's horrific! I've been looking at laser removal, I know it's going to be seriously painful, but if it gets rid of it Im willing to go through the pain. I don't know whether it can be completely removed, I really hope so! Any advise would be very welcome. Thanks
