Winning The Bet: I Have Your Name Tattooed On My...
Copyright (c) 2009 Cesar Jantz

In college, my roommate Rick used to win bar bets by walking up
to strangers at the bar and saying, "Hey, I bet you fifty bucks
that I have your name tattooed on my (backside)." The strangers
would almost always take the bet, part because it seemed like an
easy bet from a drunk and part because they were a bit tipsy
themselves. But every taker would always lose after Rick would
pull down to expose his left cheek and the words 'your name'
burned into his skin.
We paid for plenty of bar tabs thanks to his tattoo, but as he
got older, 'your name' warped into a jumbled mess of
indecipherable letters; even after years of enjoying his mark,
Rick joined so many others in regretting his tattoo.
Tattoos are a powerful form of self expression and one of a young
adult's ultimate feats in rebellion. Many people seek out
tattoos because they want to feel unique, or wish to revolt from
paternal objections, or maybe they want to document an important
life experience on their skin. Either way, tattoos are a bold
statement on your body that, while maybe a significant symbol for
yourself at the time, more often than not, can come back to haunt
you.
By now, we are all well acquainted with 18-year old Kimberley
Vlaeminck of Belgium and her 56-piece facial art display. Lying
to the news and her family just to dodge the anger of a
disapproving father is definitely not something she planned on
having to do when she walked into that tattoo parlor to get what
she told the media was "only three stars".
(http://itn.co.uk/8080a47397dab3b36c56ed5dec817f4e.html)
Even though Kimberley secretly liked her face art, many people
who get such extravagant works done on their bodies live to
regret it. Even celebrities have laments thanks to tattoos.
Heroes star, Hayden Panettiere has the words "Vivere senza
rimipianti" down the left side of her body, which is supposed to
mean "to live without regrets" in Italian. Ironically, the word
"rimipianti" is meant to be spelled "rimpianti" without the
extra "i." This is just another good argument for people to not
get foreign words imprinted on their bodies without fully knowing
what they are putting on there in the first place.
A study done through Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center
in 2006 showed that while about twenty percent of people who get
tattoos are unhappy with their body art, only six percent ever
seek to get them removed. (http://tinyurl.com/6zf6wt)
Several reasons for their tattoo removals ranged from new jobs
that conflicted with their appearances, social embarrassment, or
lowered body image.
However on the other side, laser tattoo removals can be very
costly, which is part why most people do not have it done. Laser
tattoo removal treatments usually range from two hundred to nine
hundred dollars per visit and it generally takes several visits
to a specialist before the ink really begins to fade away.
Even after the tattoo is gone, some people still retain remnants
of the shape of the tattoo in a scar.
So before you decide to ink your skin, plan out what you want
seared onto your body. Is it something really meaningful? Is it
something you won't mind seeing for years to come? And will it
help you win bar bets? If you can at least answer the last one
with a yes, then maybe it might be worth 56 stars after all...

Cesar Jantz is a freelance writer, who frequently enjoys a good
hearty laugh. But getting a tattoo removed is no laughing matter.
When it comes to removing tattoos, most people think about laser
tattoo removal treatments, but the Nuviderm Home Tattoo Removal
System has been medically tested and proven to fade and/or remove
tattoos. Nuviderm is a clear liquid, not a cream, and contains
no Hydroquinone, a skin bleaching chemical found in most Tattoo
Removal Cream products. Learn more at: http://nuviderm.com/
