Tattoos are for life - not just for fashion!

In today’s modern society we see endless celebrities parading in front of us, showing off their new tattoos.

Last week the angelic teen-idol Miley Cyrus showed off her new tattoo to her Twitter followers. Rihanna famously has a controversial gun tattoo and a word spelt backwards across her chest so that she can read it in a mirror. Last August she had reached tattoo number fifteen. Even the nation's sweetheart Cheryl Cole has them; her latest addition took a whopping 11 hours to complete.

With tattoos becoming more a fashion statement than a personal one, how does having a tattoo affect the life of a normal person holding down a 9-5 in the real world?

Speaking about tattoo removal and her own personal experiences is Frederika Bird, a micro-pigmentation specialist from Portsmouth.
