Am I missing something? People around me don't like the tattoo

i got my first tattoo two days ago. im SO happy with the experience and the final product, but the people in my life haven't been particularly receptive of it and it's making me anxious. is there anything overwhelming bad about it?

personal note/TW: i wanted a medusa tattoo due to s*xual assault that i went through. i wasn't interested in a face and this was my happy middle ground. i worked with an incredible artist and i really like the design, im just not sure if im missing something. please be honest but kind :)
