Want to get a tattoo, but have several doubts? The pain is not unbearable and your inking won't fade with time.
Vikas and Mickey Malani, Co-founders of Bodycanvas Tattoos, bust some myths associated with the art of tattooing:
1. Can't donate blood: It's only the first three months that you cannot donate blood. After that you can donate blood.
2. Tattoos cannot be removed: Tattoos can be removed through a laser treatment leaving no scars behind.
3. Tattoos will fade when you grow old: Tattoo needs maintenance. You need to moisturize your tattoo at least once in a day.
4. Skin allergy and blood poisoning: People have a mindset that getting a tattoo can lead to skin allergies. With the right artist and hygiene factor, it doesn't come up as a problem.
5. People who are below 18 years cannot get a tattoo: You can surely get a tattoo even if you are not 18. Getting a tattoo will not have any health hazards if you are not 18.
