Hmm..
My housemate is currently having a lightning bolt ( Yes, we did it ourselves for lol-z) taken off his outer calf. As it was a home effort the line is very thick, and it's probably a bit too deep.
Anyway, he claims it doesn't hurt... infact less than getting tatoo'd.

This is one instance where a hand tool would much more fun to use then a power tool :d

Exactly, i got it done when i was 15 and pissed! Not exactly a thought out tattoo i want for life!
Craig like i said above. Was just a big mistake i made when i was 15. A friends dad had tattoo equipment and done a tattoo for me after id been out drinking :roll:
Its actually not getting fully removed, just faded down enough so that it can be covered up well as part of a full sleeve that im getting.

Ah right, you are getting more/adding to it.
Wondered if it was a work issue thing?
I'm becoming tempted by a tattoo, I've never liked them until recently.
you should never have a tattoo erased, it should mean something that you never want to forget
the only reason i wont get one is because nothing means that much yet

everyone says that, has thier mums name, there grans name date of death, etc tattoo is a symbol mate i have my mum and dad on me but at the end of the day there my mum and dad im never going to forget them ever there my world if something means that much to you why would you put it on your arm youd keep it in your head and in your heart? so if you wanna get one yo dont need a reason meaning etc its a tattoo they all fade they all go green and look silly when your old everone knows that ? and everyone changes as they get older as seen by wilson saying if something means something to you youll never regret it? when your 50 got a big name and date on your arm and its one green blob youd regret it surely ?

Its £50 a session mate. Im going to be getting about 4. So around £200 all in. Although that isnt completly removing it. Im getting a full sleeve and its just removing it enough so that i can get a decent cover up.

Yeh doesnt look bad. There was a guy there who had just had it done when i was getting my appointment. He said it was like getting a elastic band ****ted off your skin lol
They said it was fine, seems a pretty common thing to do. I dont think it properly scars.

as long as it means something to you thats ok
i must just be a heartless basterd then, my missus has 'draper' on her wrist, and she asked me to get pogo - i said no !
i would have the HTID angel waving a chequered flag over a few nova race cars tho if anyone wants to get artistic
Girl I used to work with had gary tattoo'd on her wrist, he was 3 ex's ago lol

i'm in the process of getting one removed from my neck, elastic band sounds about right, but one big feckin elastic band lol. mine hasn't scarred at all after the first session, depends on how you get it done though. Hospital lasers tend to scar more as they treat a bigger area with each shot. hurts less the more you get it done apparently, it breaks the pigment up in the ink then your body absorbs it so the less pigment thats there the less it hurts

Not much differance yet. Was told it would be about two weeks into the healing before i would really notice any change. Although the grey shading thats on the tattoo is just about gone already! Also removed a few bits of the black lines, around the bottom left of the tattoo.
And in my honest opinion, it hurts like ****! Much worse than getting the tattoo done in the first place.

Top notch! Keep it up lol
Intersting. I have 3 tats and although I'd never consider having any of them removed (as they were done at importand points in my life and mean a lot to me) it's good for people who make mistakes.
A guy in the Subaru club has got a huge Koi Carp in full colours on oone of his legs and it's amazing, but he was quoted £4000 to have it removed! LOL!

lol, could have been, she'd only just turned 17 lol
Anyone else who's looking to have them removed, keep an eye out for any tatooists who are investing.recently invested in the removal gear.
My housemate is getting his done free as the tatooist needs someone to practice on.
Meh, propane torch & paint scraper. Winner lol lol
I allways wanted a tattoo, but change my mind to much to get one i'd be happy with.
But now, i've seen so many skinny white chavs with them it puts me off more and more..
At Pv there was a kid that was about 4stone, whiter than i am, with a huge tattoo across his tummy, saying "asbo king" really something to be happy about..

No not as bad as a propane torch and scraper lol It is bloody painfull though, much worse than getting the actuall tattoo imo.
I had to tell them to stop half way through so i could have a wee break, was starting to feel faint lol
