I know a young lady who used it with some success so not everyone is scared of it like you seem to be. I said try it assuming its not sold in 55 gallon drums to bath in and also assuming that if he does experience pain that he will discontinue its use. Not everyone is a pansy.

Yes i question your lack of advice and now you offer substance only after be called out. Being a moderator certainly qualifies you for nothing and i know this but does it mean you give stupid answers to seemingly intelligent questions and no one is to question that?

Piss poor advice as well as judgement on your part. Way to go pro.

Never heard that one. 2 hrs at most for a covering then clean it, moisturize it, and never cover again.

It will not remove it but should lighten up the color which will only help with the cover up. It certainly cannot hurt and now is the best time to start using it since your tattoo is so new you should get the best effect out of it. Give it a shot. 1 or 2 shades lighter will make a big difference for the cover. I am not a tattoo artist, just a collector with 40 or so and still counting for some reason.

That will be a simple fix for a good artist. You have good space around it. People do all kinds of stupid crap so no need to kick yourself. Concentrate on the fix. If it were me(and it was a time or 2) i would do some research to get an idea of what i would like then find a good artist who will sketch a few ideas for me to see. Could be as simple as a better star or a complete cover. Mostly depends on you.
