I had two small dots on my fingers that I did whilst bored when I was 14 in an art lesson (never leave bored 14 year olds with a pot of indian ink!) and I've hated them for years.
I went along to Sk:n today to have a consultation to get them removed, and she did a patch test on them for free (they were very small homemade ones) and they're gone!
So, I just wanted to tell anyone out there who has a small homemade tattoo (they're easier to remove by laser) they want removed you can probably get it done for nothing as a patch test. I also have another tattoo which she removed half of as part of the patch test.
It did hurt though, only for about a minute, but it was painful.
