People get tattoos for many reasons, be it cultural, personal, or simply because they like the design. Tattoos are becoming more mainstream, too, with face tattoos even growing in popularity.
Just as there are many reasons people get tattoos, there are many reasons why people may want to remove them.
Although tattoos are permanent, this is only to an extent. They can be removed if you decide you no longer want them.
Let’s take a look at the ways you can remove a tattoo, including cost, how long it’ll take, and more.
Older tattoos as well as amateur (“stick and poke”) tattoos are easier to remove than newer ones.
Some colors are easier to remove than others as well. These include:
black
brown
dark blue
green
Larger, darker, more colorful tattoos are more time-consuming and expensive to remove than smaller, lighter, and less colorful ones.
