Pharrell is going to show us what it looks like when black people get laser removal, y’all:

Heavily tattooed hip-hop star PHARRELL WILLIAMS has begun the painful process of removing his body art through laser surgery.
The N.E.R.D. singer/rapper, who has tattoos all over his body, including his neck, arms and back, expressed his regret at some of his etchings last year (‘08) and revealed his plans to undergo the hi-tech surgery. He recently had one of the artworks removed and is sharing his experience with fans online – by posting a photo of his laser session on his blog, showing Williams with his arms in bandages as his back is tended to. In a caption accompanying the picture, he writes, “Laser treatment b**ches! Extra crispy. See, no skin graft here, just pure laser pain.”

If this comes out well then that means there is hope for the idiocy and plethora of rappers out there with with ignorant tats on their faces.

one of my gf’s had the laser removal and its going pretty good but she has white skin so I don’t know what will happen to a dark skinned person.

just lasering those off to get new ones.
He said that in his interview and his blog hinted to it.

I wish I could afford to laser off the tattoo that I have on my leg. I regret it.

Here’s my two cents:

I think that everyone has the right to do what he/she wants with his/her body, but hats off to Pharrell for getting rid of that stuff. People think it’s cool when they’re young, but they are pretty short-sighted and don’t think about the future implications/ramifications of body art. What happens when you and Knuck-Knuck break up, but you still have his name inked on your lower back, or you want to wear that beautiful strappless evening gown, but you’ve got “Pretty T” scribbled across your left boob?

Also, people with excessive/tacky tattoos are also advertising in the professional world that they don’t take themselves seriously, so neither should you. Lord knows I would never go to a gynecologist with “Thug Life” tatted across his neck. I’m just sayin.

Plink plink.

LMAO!!!!!!! Too true though

4/23/09, 20:54:pm

erm as i said
he’s just taking them off to put different ones back on lol
plus he’s not getting rid of the one on his neck
..he said that in an interview lol

If i’m not mistaken he is also undergoing some procedure with a new state of the art procedure where they grow new skin identical to your own then apply it over your old skin. This is some really high tech ish…there’s a place in Maryland/Dc…some college that is practicing this…my be the cure for stretch marks…

Yea I mean I have no problem with him with or without the tatoos. Its still crazy to me how he 36 but still look like he in his early twenties. but that aside, yea its not that sexy when he gets old and all his tatoos shrink into one big black blob, lmao

4/23/09, 22:50:pm

Without the tattoos and i’d STILL hit that…twenty somethin’ times! Pharrell is a hot piece of @ss!

ddot

4/23/09, 22:56:pm

ava….he’s also said in another interview with tatu magazine that he was joking and everyone took him seriously, but he was just kidding about the growing skin thing.

STUPID *****……I DONT KNOW WHY PEOPLE BE O’DIN WIH TATS

GGooDie

4/24/09, 08:35:am

But what was the purpose of getting the tattoos in the first place?

I mean the two that I have I wanted and will keep because they have a significant value for what I represent.

*****s are silly and not just black people, but any person that would pay out $500 for a tattoo to get it removed later.

Dummies!

He is probably having them removed partially for spiritual reasons…he’s not a saint but he does believe in God and he has previously expressed regret for getting all tatted up.

@ ddot

I saw that interview too. He was looking into stem cell reproduction of his skin at first, guess he decided not to spend the cash. Cool none the less what modern technology and medicine can do. Cat is definatly a Do-er and not just a talker!

I was nervous when my brother had to have skin grafting done because he was badly burned. The risk of infection is scary, I hope dude will be ok, surgeries and procedures like this ain’t no joke.

Why get them in the first place? What a *****ing dumb***** but at least he can pay to remove them

Not this sh*t again

4/24/09, 12:02:pm

What’s funny to me is that people always say those tats wont look good when you’re old. Really, have ever seen Old skin look good, with or without tats? It won’t improve your love life either way. Hahaha.

LOL@ all the people that are showing him love for removing the tattoos! The ni99a got the removed so that he can get more ink!
