Why not just get a cover up tat from a good artist?? I have seen many cover-ups that you could never tell were a cover tat. Thats probably alot cheaper & less painful option.

most likely will cost more than just a couple hundred, especially if you have to go for multiple sessions. I second the vote of getting a cover up, even though you don't feel it is an option just because it's a more cost viable option, and from what I have heard less painful...

Wrecking balm it, and then cover it up with something else.
