Sleeves on women

Sleeves on women

So Ive wanted a sleeve tattoo since I was probably about 15 years old (I’m late 20s now). I had an appointment to start one when I was 18 and chickened out a week before. I had another appt about two years ago and then found out i was pregnant literally the day before my appt and obviously ended up canceling again..
Both appointments I had wanted a mermaid, and both times the designs have changed, (and im kind of glad i didnt get either of the original mermaids).
Now that I’ve pretty much perfected the design, im definitely more confident this is what i want to do. i have other tattoos that i love, but I guess I’m nervous about not liking a sleeve “on me” being such a big piece.
Im also a redhead with freckles, so my skin isnt like “pretty”, thats a smooth even color.
Ive done a little photoshop on what it would look like on my body and, to me, it makes me look very masculine.?
Im terrified of not liking it on my body and regretting ever getting it. I know the photoshop isnt the most accurate but i wanted to get an idea of how it would look.
I guess i need some advice and opinions. Has anyone gotten a sleeve and regretted it and if so, why? Thanks in advance.
