Nope. Not trying ice & salt yet. Thought I'd try to file it off with my foot sander instead.![]()
Honestly, I think I'm gonna try a cocktail of skin lighteners, peels and exfoliation for a few months and see if there's any noticeable fading. That's supposedly what's in all the "tattoo removal kits" but available at CVS.
I'd rather just kill it dead than let it live and breathe under a coverup. I'm reclaiming the skin beneath that tat in the name of Jesus!![]()
The problem is, is that the ink is too deep for any of that crap to work. The only things that will fade it are time and sun, or the laser. All the salt and ice will do is freeze the skin which is not good and is a good way to get a bad infection. Go to the tanning bed and it might fade. Even the laser is not 100%. It doesn't always fade it completely out unless its a light black and grey tattoo. I'd go with the cover-up. You'll never really get rid of the tattoo.Originally Posted by Protege79
Yep, I think I agree with you there. Unfortunately for me, the tats never seen the sun so hasn't faded any over the years and since I'm Irish I can't go crazy at the tanning salon. It would be fine if it was light and raised like some laser removals I've seen, but a big black cover up in this particular spot would be a bad idea. It would just make a bad thing worse.
Damn those Misfits and their horror punk!
If anyone knows about tattoo coverups that slightly fade dark ink so that you can cover with a decent design lemme know.
