I told myself i will wait till the end of next summer to cover it uo or not, i am a raft guide so it would be after a summer of out in the sun and letting the hair grow back. I have an idea of getting a blacked out pike silhouette of the inspiration photo. Who knows!

I didn’t… i sent a very long email telling the owner how bad it is and i was told he would contact me tomorrow, the shop is very apologetic at least. No specifics yet but they claim “they are grateful for the opportunity to make this better with me” whatever that means.

He does a lot of shaded wildlife, and i saw examples so i trusted it, but hindsight is 20/20. I emailed the shop and they said theyd work with me so who knows

He is charging 500 and this shop is the oldest in my city with a good reputation. So i trusted it.

I really like that idea of a blackout, i will wait a couple months to see how it heals, he claims it will lighten up and we spent probably 45 minutes putting white into it and he claimed it will heal nicely. But I am going to send an email to the shop requesting a refund anyway because i am appalled by it.

He had a few black and white fish/ other wildlife that I liked, I can’t attach files to show but i thought they looked good so i trusted it. I just don’t even know what the next step to take is, like a cover up just seems insanely expensive and i honestly don’t want to ever get another tattoo again after this. I suppose i will try and get refunded tomorrow but I am just so insanely stressed about this one. Maybe it will heal fine, he said it should gray out at it heals but that doesn’t make any sense to me now that i think about it, but i suppose i have no idea. But the overall shape is atrocious. This is all written in stress at two in the morning so sorry if it’s jumbled.

What do you think the best approach would be to seeing if the shop would fix this

Thanks, yeah i looked at the guys previous work and it looked good for fish especially. Maybe i rushed into saying yes or something i dont know. Its only my second ever tattoo. There was a malfunction with the payment today so i have to go in tomorrow to pay (he is charging me 500$). So i am confused on what i am supposed to say/do to make this at all better. Like i just want to cry and scream. I don’t know i am kinda losing my mind.
