Erasing Tattoos

I can't say that I have any, but I must admit I am fascinated with the "commitment to an idea", which tattoos represent to many people. Some of the artwork also blows my mind.

That said, I stumbled upon the following article about the booming business of erasing tattoos...including some cool new innovations....

Erasing Tattoos, Out of Regret or Simply to Get a Fresh Canvas
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/17/us/17tattoo.html?hp

"Removing tattoos is costly, uncomfortable and time-consuming, but the affinity for body art is so strong that some people say they do it to clear space to tattoo all over again..."

"On the horizon is a development that could change the very nature of tattooing: a type of ink encapsulated in beads and designed to break up after one treatment with a special laser..."

Unreal.

Dr. Edward Turlington has a great tattoo remover. Just apply once... every hour, for 72 hours. And watch that tattoo slowly burn away.

certainty when u get one is key. a real passion or conviction at the time i think should be had towards what you get placed on u.

thats pretty much the only reason i dont have one yet. i have yet to feel that conviction, certainty or passion or a symbol or design (or the meaning behind it) that i want on me.

but i really want a tattoo. badly... unfortunately, ill never have one till i have that sense of surety i mentioned above.
