Forum Discussion - If You're Worried You Might Regret Your Tattoo...

Sunday August 15, 2004
Charmed5889 writes: "I want a tattoo, but I keep having the thought of what would happen in the future if I ever want or need the tattoo removed, and that would be painful. Did you have that worry and if you did how did you overcome it?"

The simple answer to this question, of course, is that if you think you might want to get rid of it in the future, don't get it to begin with. ginalatina84 makes this point by saying, "If you haven't got a tattoo yet but are already thinking of ways to get rid of it, and the pain involved, I would say you answered your own question. Wait until your completely sure before getting one."

But how do you know if you're absolutely sure? Read the suggestions and share your own on the message board.
