    being a painter, colors NEVER come out perfect, thats why we have to blend it.

    i got stretch marks too but can't do **** about them. Sounds interesting to tattoo it away. If you get it done please post some pics

    I use coco butter cream to prevent stretch marks. any cream that will soften and make your skin more elasticy will help.

    I have just a few hardly noticable ones (noticable to me) I had microdermabrasion treatment an it reduced them to almost nothing, I dont know if this will work on more noticable ones, the tattoo option sounds interesting....

    Just so you know, if you are a bodybuilder and you have stretch marks i dont think most girls will think its unattractive. I actually think its sexy, kind of like a scar on a guy - you know battle wounds. The marks mean he is growing. If you are competing and think they are causing you bad points, then I would worry about it.

    I would venture to say that most girls don't share your appreciation for stretch marks TexasFitnessGirl...but god bless you!
    By the way....how much was the microderm abrasion? I have only two inch long strech marks on my tummy that i got when i bulked up like a fat ass on a 10,000 calorie a day diet for 6 months a couple years ago, and I would like to have them done. How much would that be? How much was yers?

    Only problem with tatooing is that your ****ed if ya try to get a tan later.
    I have strech marks on my shoulders and arms, not big though. The ones on my biceps are very numerous but so tiny that you can't notice. The ones on m shoulders are a bit more noticeable. I have them on my legs to somwhat.

    How often should cocoa butter be used? Just before workouts? or a couple times a week, or everyday?

    The thing with strech marks is that they are only nasty looking is you get really big, then shrink. If you don't lose your size, the skin will stay taught and pulled evenly.

    I have those too dawg. I hate when they freakin loook like sombody cut ragged slices into your skin ya know? It's sooooo not sexy. The worst are fresh ones, cuz they're still pink, and it really looks like a gash of some sort.
    rrrrrggg.

    Take some pics andlet us see. Honestly guys I dont think they are as unattractive as you think. I think you wil find that most people are not bothered by them on a guy. The only place they look weird is on a real overweight persons tummy.

    You use cocoa butter everyday, preferably after a shower when you are still moist. The Procedure was $65 each and it takes about 5-8 times to get good results. Some people say they dont work but I noticed a huge difference, also they have laser removal but my doctor said not to waste my money he thought my werent noticable.

    Stretch marks are a sign of hard work.. or in my case eating too much as a little kid (and the hard work I've done the past 2 years) But you know what, if people don't like them - f*ck 'em.

    God have we as Mods gotten so laxed in our jobs that you think **** like this flies here. I DO NOT STAND FOR OUR FEMALES BEING DISRESPECTED LIKE THIS. Your luck Texas is nice or this would come with a 1 week suspension at the very least. This is not Porn chat. Lets try to remember that and act like men instead of boys. Be more respectful to the ladies here.

    I've heard very good things about Strivectin. It's rather expensive but supposedly works like a charm for stretch marks.
