Are you looking to get rid of a tattoo that you just regret getting or maybe just don't like it anymore? Well I have one of my best friends who just opened up a tattoo parlor in Florida last may. My friend has many tattoos, but one of them she wasn't really happy with anymore. Great art work and design, but made she made the mistake of getting a name under it, which wasn't really a smart move. Doing this can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the situation like if it's your kids name, parents name that's something special that you won't ever regret. Other names placed on can be a huge problem, especially if you are not married to that person or with them anymore. How do you know if you are really gonna be together forever to do something like this? Don't get me wrong I have four tattoos which are a tiger cub with a jungle background on my shoulder with my one sons nickname, lower back tattoo with two angels of my twins, ankle tattoo, and a Jesus piece for my father, which turned out a little bigger than expected, but I don't regret it what so ever it's beautiful to me for my father. I did make sure though these were exactly the designs I wanted before they started working on me. I knew all of the ones I have chosen could also be covered up if I had to where they were placed. My friend started using a product called wrecking balm to try and fade her one tattoo. So she could either cover it up with another tattoo or just leave it where it wouldn't be noticeable at all.

This product wrecking balm is formulated to fade away any unwanted tattoo, but there is many factors that could affect how your tattoo will fade when using this product. This is the size of the tattoo you have, the density, and also the depth of the tattoo you are trying to fade. After using this product for 2 1/2 weeks her tattoo appeared almost gone, but not quite gone yet. The reason why it's taking her longer is, because the tattoo she is trying to fade has blue colors, and different shades of green in it, which tends to take longer to fade, because of the chemical pigment base it has. This is just like when you have black hair, and dark browns, they are harder to lighten up then blonde's and reds.

By the way, the FAQs say that the tattoo only has to be 6 months old. Did the time change or were you going off of your friend's word instead of the website?

I saw an article in VIBE magazine for this product, and it's giving customers 2 months for a complete refund. I just bought it (https://www.prevalstore.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=44), so I guess I'll find out. The guy on the phone was rude because I refused to give him my credit card number, so I bought the stuff online. Considering the mixed responses, I'll come back to let you know how it worked for me.

Sounds like an interesting idea. Would your friend be willing to be named? I have a hard time believing..

This product just doesn't sound safe. Just think of what it could be doing to your tissue under the skin!

I love tattoos on women. That being said, I also know what it's like to want a tattoo removed. I did extensive research before deciding which method to use. I chose laser treatment. Wreckingbalm, according to MANY people and websites that I researched, mentioned this product being COMPLETELY INEFFECTIVE! The company has had numerous BBB reports filed against them. They are also notorious for not returning calls or emails from customers. I am glad your friend has experienced god results with this product, but BEWARE... many people have experienced different results. Nice article btw.

Great article. Strong sandpaper and a little elbow grease should take care of any tattoo, also. Be sure to have lots of heroin on hand for before and after.

For me, tattoos on women look dirty (similar to dirty fingernails). I think too many on guys is messy, also.

Wow! This stuff is $150 (http://www.prevalstore.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=44) on this site (http://www.wreckingbalm.com/). I'm going to compare how much it would be to get it removed versus using this stuff. I don't see any side effects, but anyway, this is good information. The only problem is for people who only want parts of a tattoo removed, it may take off the part you want to keep, which is my issue.

Very interesting. I recently reaed an article where they desribed how tattoes can be removed painlessly, using ultrasound. Personally. I think tattoes, especially on a woman, look grotesque. They have always been a big turn off for me.

Great article!

I had never heard of this product, thanks for writing an article. I have a rose tattoo that I don't regret, but my husband had a tattoo that he wasn't too happy about.

Where can I find this product? I have a tattoo with symbolic meaning, but I either need to get rid of it or get another tattoo to balance out the yin/yang of the meaning... not sure what I want to do yet.
