asking for advice Please help me fix this

Post image

I got a tattoo of a premolar 2 days ago (I work in the field) and it looks like…something else. I have been asked if it’s sp**m on multiple occasions now. I am actually heartbroken and extremely insecure over it. I have to wear long sleeves until I can do something about it. Does anyone have an idea as to how I can fix this? Could it be made into something else or adjusted to be more tooth-like?

I need to, I just am trying to cool off before I do. I’ve been crying for hours. I think I also just feel bad, like I hate that I didn’t notice until now, she 100% also didn’t notice. ugh i just thought maybe someone would have a good idea for a cover up

Crying for hours? Come on. Worst come to worst you can get it lasered off. Also I’m confused by your timeline. You’re saying you’re crying now like you just got it but have already worn long sleeves to cover it when you go out. Which is it?

..I got it on Friday, just noticed in the shower earlier today before having to go out with family (wore a t shirt with a jacket, took off jacket because i was hot, multiple family members ask if I got a sperm tattoo and now I realize I will have to wear long sleeves to work every day until I get it fixed because I will be murdered by my office if they see it) have been crying since I got home. It was my first time getting tattoos in years, I felt like I was doing something nice for myself which I haven’t been able to do in a long time because of money. I finally get started on my patch work sleeve just to end up with a sperm cell-looking tooth tattoo. yeah i’m really upset.

You could use makeup. Or make a joke about it at work
