Any ideas on the best way to cover up or get rid of a tattoo on my arm?

Question by Sophie920: Any ideas on the best way to cover up or get rid of a tattoo on my arm?
I have had laser to remove most of it, but there are still blue and green patches that the laser cannot remove. It’s pretty unsightly. Has anyone tried any of the so called “lightening” creams or coverup makeup? I’ve also heard I can tattoo over the patches using a skin colour ink. I’d love to hear any ideas or experiences (good or bad) anyone has.

    removal is possible, costly, difficult and often leaving a scar that’s worst than the tattoo

    There are many products out there to temporarily hide a tattoo.
    But I have to say you’re idea to use an ink that matches your skin color is something you should look into. You would need to know, for example, if that would completely cover the blue and green or would it end up blending to make a new color. Hope it all works out for you.

    I don’t know if using tattoo ink in your skin color would work very well – chances are it won’t cover the darker ink and would end up looking like a bruise. Also, if you get any sort of tan or get lighter during the winter it will stand out like neon.

    Why did you remove it? Was it the design or just that you no longer wanted the tattoo?
    If it was just the design maybe get another tattoo?
