Go to the artist who did that and raise all hell. That really does fall on him.

Hi

You can fix it but will mean a major overhaul of the tattoo.

First you will need to add some form of scrollwork, lattice or knotwork (as an example) at the start and the end giving the start and end letters much more ‘swirl’.

Step one

Bolden the P so it is thicker and then add more swirl to the edges and bottom of the letter.

Step two add some more line work on the letters making them more fancy and bolden them out so they are thicker.

Step Three

Continue until you reach the ‘L’ loop this down so it forms an ‘A’ with the ‘E’. because you have thickened out the other letters it will be less noticable especillay if you have more fancy work on the font.

Step four

Add the letter ‘L’ at the end and finish with a fancy flourish.

Please note you will need a shit hot tattooist to do this otherwise will look a dog’s dinner.

If you are unsure there are 2 other steps you can take.

Laser – get the letters removed but will be upto 12 mths before you can tattoo over it.

Or leave it alone – it looks unique and frankly it could be seen as an eccentric interpretation – it is art not a spelling Bee.

It’s on your ribs so it’s in a more conspicuous place than say your arm. i would either leave it or laser the word and re-do.
