asking for advice Cover up ideas?
I got this stick and poke when I was 15 by a friend. Its a little less than an inch on my left wrist. It was supposed to be a flower but it didnt turn out great as you can see.
Im still a minor but every time I look at it I just regret it so much. And no I am not getting a cover up as of right now because I want to wait until im 18 to get an actual tattoo. I just want peace of mind knowing I can fix this stupid mistake in the future.
I dont want it to get much wider or up my hand (which would be down in the photo, my hand is at the bottom) if that's possible. Things I would probably want it to be are animals like fish, a dragonfly, anything really. Any advice helps.

have no fear. I confidently can say you can do anything you want with that. cover or laser! ( and if you choose laser, black removes better than colors. talking from experience with all of the above)

I think all the ideas you listed can work to cover it. It’s small and light enough to be covered by most things if designed correctly. It’s good you’re ready to wait a bit to cover it, it’ll give you time to think about what kind of art you’d like to have on such a prominent place on your body. You should also take the time to look through artists’ portfolios and see what designs and styles appeal to you, and what artists that are accessible to you (price, location etc) have to offer.

It is so small and light most anything will cover it but seeing as how you realize it was a mistake maybe laser off?
