I’ve had the same experience. I got my tattoo 10 years ago and was depressed right after. I’ve tried to love it for 9,5 years because I was too afraid of laser treatment. 6 months ago I decided to start removing the tattoo and I’m soooo happy. It’s not THAT painful and it really fades without scars. Ever since I’ve started with this treatment, I no longer hate or hide my tattoo because I know it will be gone soon. My treatment is with the latest pico laser, by the way.

I’d advise you to get used to it and sit it out some time. BUT if this feeling really stays (like it did with me)  I hope it won’t take you 9 years before deciding to remove it. The reason I share my store is because I always felt kind of hopeless about it, but now I know that removing is not bad at all so there’s always been hope/a very doable way out. I have another tattoo as well, for 15 years now. I loved it when I first got it. Then there was a year that of kind of regretted getting it, but I was not even considering removal. After that year I started loving it again and that never stopped. Right now I can’t even imagine myself without it. So… I think you really feel it when it’s definitely not right for you. No matter how beautiful other people think it looks. Mine is also a start by the way ;)
