My friend got the Salvation Army logo on her arm when she was younger (she's a Salvationist) and she absolutely hates it. It looks like a prison tattoo, the lines are uneven in some places, (some too thin, some too thick) although you really can't tell the poor quality of it until you look at it up close. But she got it right on her upper arm meaning when we go out to the club or the bar she has to wear shirts with sleeves or else she gets self conscious because she's got a church logo on her arm and feels like she has a standard to uphold.
Oy.
She uses a balm of some sort to try to lighten it up but its so big nothing's gonna fix that except getting it removed.
