awesomemamma Posted October 15, 2007 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Can anyone tell me about the "body art" they do on the ship (elation specifically, but I am guessing most are similar...) Prices, etc.? My teens would love to have a temporary tat.!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgarroutte Posted October 16, 2007 #2 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'd like to know about that as well. When are you sailing on the Elation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trock Posted October 16, 2007 #3 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Do you mean the temporary tattoos they do? Do yourself a favor..buy a pack of the temporary tattoos at your nearest beauty supply or ebay etc.. Dont waste your time or money... they are terrible! Take it from someone who has friends in the tattoo business.. and i have 6 of my own.... the temps you buy in the store are much more real looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they are nothing like the real thing (my little bro. is covered with tats, we know what they are "supposed to look like) So, I should just buy a lot of er jacks? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvlgirl Posted October 16, 2007 #6 Share Posted October 16, 2007 You can just the temp ones in beauty supply stores. I guess for kids it would be fine though, they know they are fake its more "Hey we got a tattoo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkneern Posted October 16, 2007 #7 Share Posted October 16, 2007 The Temp Tattoos look great when there first done but they don't last at all. By the next day its 1/2 washed off and if you go in the pool its gone. As for the price I believe they start at $10-25. Don't waste the money.

travelagentgirl Posted October 16, 2007 #8 Share Posted October 16, 2007 they are bascically airbrushed on, but dont put sunscreen over them or get in the pool right away because they will come right off. most of the smaller ones started at 12.

shandabyb Posted October 16, 2007 #10 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Last year we paid $25 for one for my daughter. They told us no showers (ick) or pool for at least 24 hours. We waited the 24 hours and she took a shower. Within 2 days it was completely gone. Then I had a sad 7 year old and I'm out $25 bucks. Much better deal to buy some ahead of time (mine are already packed) and bring them with you. Spend the money on a T-shirt or something that will last a bit longer.

abitaturbodog Posted October 16, 2007 #11 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I agree with the above posters. My kids tat was half gone the next day and I think it was $12. I wish Carnival would stop selling these for the kids sake. It just makes them sad when it washes right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
