There are so many reasons people get inked. For some, a tattoo is a form of expression for others, a reminder of incidents and people. Since a tattoo is permanent, it needs to be carefully thought about. Today, you may think having your girlfriend's name inked onto your skin is a way of declaring your love but what if tomorrow, you break up. Ex-lovers names are probably the most common tattoos that people ask to be removed. Yes, tattoos can be removed but it isn't as easy as it sounds.

Take 1 mm one if you want to use. But it will not help you permanently. It will give temporary solution only. Better take homoeopathic treatment. For hair growth you should take homoeopathic treatment without side effects. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and further guidance. Till then use arnica hair oil and shampoo.
