Steel Wool And Salt To Remove A Tattoo?

Here's another tattoo removal method that isn't worth wasting your time with.  The myth is that if you make a paste out of salt and water and then apply the paste to your tattoo followed by using steel wool to vigorously rub the salt water paste into your skin you can remove your tattoo.

Hello!!!!  Does anyone besides me think this is a bad idea?  Haven't you ever heard the old expression, "...that's like pouring salt in a wound"?  The reason that expression works is because everyone knows that putting salt in an open wound HURTS like hell.  It's just not a good idea!

Salt and an open wound just don't go together so if you ever wake up with the urge to try and remove your tattoo with steel wool and salt, do yourself a big favor and go back to bed.
