Is There Really Such a Thing as a Non-Committal Tattoo?
Yes, the ink may fade over time, but it won’t disappearever.
There is no magical ink that fades completely after a predetermined length of time.
Sometattoo artistswill say that they tattoo the ink so lightly that it doesn’t become permanent.
Except that a hair rinse will indeed fade after about two months because it rinses out with shampooing.
Safe Temporary Tattoos
Otsjui recommends a safe alternative, such as stick-on tattoos.
“Their semi-permanent tattoos are realistic, skin-safe, easy to apply and can last up to two weeks.
They are designed to gradually fade over time instead of peeling and crumbling like temporary tattoos tend to.”
The Sucker Scam
Basically, the art of the semi-permanent is nothing but a scam.
Those are the only real choices you have.
But keep in mind that even some of the truly temporary choices also come with risks.
There was even an image of how you might easily apply your own tattoo at home.
This site, and many others like it, scream scam.
