No it's very small & very cute & on my big toe. It's just so visible & i don't think I'm the kind of person that wants a visible tattoo anymore, I have 2 on my back that are very easy to hide, but this one is harder.

I can understand that Both of my tattoos are not visible when I get dressed, even in a bathing suit. I know more people than you'd think who are tattooed and don't want anybody to know.

You want to represent yourself one way in some situations, and another way in other situations. Having a visible tattoo does stereotype you.

You'll feel much better once you have it removed.

Thank you judy, you really do understand how I feel. I'm just a little depressed i had to get the tattoo to figure this out. You live & learn I suppose. I know once this situation is resolved I will have a lot of things I have learned from it. Plus my kids will be getting a super lecture on how not to make the same mistakes I did. My mom never made any big mistakes, she just told us certain things weren't things you do, I however was one that had to make the mistake to learn from it. But I can use these experiences to help my kids, because I have a personal experience with how it can affect you down the line they might actually listen.

I'm both nervous & excited for my consultation tomorrow. If things go well hopefully it will be removable & maybe they'll even be able to tell me how many sessions. I can get 1 session per month. The way I see it I can get 4 treatments before sandal weather gets here, maybe 5. and once sandal weather gets here I will have to wear a bandage on it because it can't be exposed to the sun while healing. I'll just tell people I have a blister or something if they ask. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it can be removed. I'll start a new thread tomorrow with what i find out. Thanks again ladies.
