Tri Tats and hairy legs don't mix

Seriously – when I was a kid, where were temporary tattoos this strong? I would’ve killed for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles tattoo that lasted more than a day of playing outside.

Now, I’m taking nose-hair scissors to my unshaven leg to remove the residue. Silver lining: I have so much leg hair that you can’t even tell where I’ve removed clumps.

Carry on.

I’m basically a wookie. I shave now.

That is why I don’t use them. I have my wife mark me up with a marker the morning of. Those tri-tats are just stupid

That was my first (and likely last) experience with them. I don’t have a wife, but I CAN find a Sharpie.

Baby oil works great, or mineral oil.

i have decently hairy legs, I don’t shave for racing, and i’ve used tri tats several times with no problem
.

mineral oil takes them right off.

So they come off with baby oil but what about going on? Yeah you get it wet, but, do they matte the hair down? Do the hairs pull and itch? Should I shave (god forbid)? or just use a sharpie?

They go on just fine! I put mine on the night before my race so I didn’t have to worry about it in the morning and it didn’t bother me at all!!
