    The only real temporary tattoos there are are henna and the one's kids use, i.e the paper ones that wash off in the shower. The ones you've been told about ARE real tattoos, they just don't inject the ink as deep into the skin as a regular tattoo would. And they WILL last forever. They'll look **** from day one because they're not done deep enough the lines will bleed and they'll look progressively worse as time goes on, but will never disappear. only fade a little bit.

    If you don't want a tattoo for the rest of your life, don't get one.

    Any 'tattooist' who says the tattoo is temporary is a con artist and a shame on their profession. A relative's girlfriend got one of these done and it looks terrible a year on. I think she should sue, to be honest. It's not on lying to someone about something that'll be on their skin forever.

    I only saw this posting today but I know someone who does temporary tattoos that will last for 3 weeks. They are air brushed on but start to wear off pretty quick on the 3rd week.

    They're not the kind the original poster was on about, but they sound pretty cool!

    You can buy a spray on tattoo kit in boots, basically you get a spray, some ink, and some stencils for around 80 blips.

    80 quid aint much for the kit, cause then he can do it where he wants, when he wants, and theres enough ink in it for a load of tatts, which in the medium - long run will save him a fortune instead of payin to get them done in some place.
