Everyone likes what they like, but true Japanese tattooing probably has had more influence on modern tattooing than anything else... American traditional a close second. Janky kanji is not what it's about.
Look, tattoos are an adult thing. Be an adult, decide what YOU think and what YOU think should be done about it and stop looking for someone to agree with you.
You might not post to this site again, but you know you'll lurk and think pissy things about all of us, lol.
Bless your heart. I bet you'll be back when it looks even worse because no reputable tattoo artist would agree with you. You're not a very good listener, are you?
Also? BYEEEEEEEEEE.
Its not just the dodgy letter. There's alot of issues with the tattoo. But no worries. I went to the artist who totally agrees with me. So i will not be posting on this site again.
Take some Xanax.
1/17 - posted that you got the tattoo one week ago, so got the tattoo on/about 1/10
1/24 got more shading worried about redness so you only waited 2 weeks to start monkeying with it
2/2 - post that you had it touched up 10 days before assume that would be the same appointment where you got more shading, so you got a touch up before the tattoo even healed.
2/4 - now you want a cover up.
Let the F***ing tattoo heal for God's sake. You think you hate it now? You are going to wind up with a hot mess that's going to be really hard to fix. Let your tattoo heal for at least a couple of months - start the clock when you got your last "work" done on it.
Find someone that's really, really good at cover-ups and go see them. Be prepared to pay top dollar if you want a good job done. I've seen some God-awful tattoos because people were in such a hurry to fix the one they didn't like. If you can't figure out how to stop and take a deep breath, you're likely to wind up with multiple cover ups. Each one is harder on your skin and more likely to show through.
If people are annoyed it's because you aren't listening, you are looking for someone to validate what you want to do. Everyone has told you to let it heal, you aren't doing that.
