Luckily for you it is very light and if you are willing to I would get that hit once or twice with a laser then you could get it covered by just about anything you want. I really can't tell you what to cover it with I don't know you. Find a great tattooist and work with him/her on ideas that will cover that well. We can help you find that tattooist.

You will get way better results the lighter it is the best way to get it lighter is to get it lasered. I really don't understand people not wanting to get lasered when it will get the best results they have already made the wrong decision once. Getting a cover up on something that is doesn't cover well sometimes just turns into a huge blob that now instead of 1 or 2 zaps you are in for 10+. Sorry for the rant yours may be able to be covered w/o the laser but go into the process with your eyes open.

why cover it ? it's not so bad,have a good artist fill and add to and connect the roses to make one cohesive sleeve.

Hi dan.. it's the rose with the stalk I don't like if I could do something with that I'd be happy.. do you think I should add some colour to it?

Agreed. A good artist can certainly improve what's already there, either with better shading or by adding color and maybe add some filler.
