It is a lie

i have used wrecking balm from may 09 to sept. 09 and i see no change or fading it did not work and they will not return any money. i could tell this product was not going to work right off the bat, so i called and ask for a refund .....i was told keep using the product and i will soon see results and they guaranteed it after a few more weeks i called again and again i was told i will soon see results so i did, after over 4 months it still looked the same and i called again this time i was told it takes up to one year and no i can not have a refund,so if you ask me....no it will not work, just keep your hard earned money!!!!

THEY ALSO GIVE YOU A 2 MONTH GUARANTEE, SO WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL TO GET A REFUND WITHIN THAT 2 MONTHS IF IT WASN'T WORKING FROM THE GET GO. YOUR FAULT?!?!

I always wondered about those commercials for this product. Seemed too good to be true.

Wrecking Balm tattoo removal a farce.

Wrecking Balm tattoo removal does not "fade" your tattoo as advertised. That's because it does not work at all. Their salesperson told me that a 60 day package would eradicate my old, small, lightly colored tattoo. 6 months later, no progress. This product has not worked at all. Not even a little bit. And I was disappointed that the company sent me another kit and charged it to my credit card despite my request to not send anything more. A total ripoff. I have been on other sites and read other forums in which so many others have been cheated. This "product" apparently has taken many others for a ride.

Hey if this stuff does not remove your tattoo (no matter how *** you think it is) that means you had an artist that did his job and made a permenant scar on your body. You didn't think too hard about the art you were getting did you?

I have multiple tattoos and each one is special each one has meaning. tattoos are not fashion they are a life's story expressed on your body. If you don't like your art then replace it with a different piece of art. Cover it with a piece of art that you thought about and means something.

Remember that you can have a good or cheap tattoo; good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good.

If you really want it gone then try using salicylic acid an acne treatment to remove it... yes that will be painful but so was your tattoo...

Theres a better way. Check out IPL use at home. I know a site called neomaglight.com they are great, and it works.

Guest

Oh my god *** *** ***, I have a *** tat and im going to buy it and if it doesnt work ok big freaking deal For fifty something bucks im not going to complain. Ppl expect too much for too little.get a grip already

Guest

One of my kids is looking for a solution, but I'm glad I read this. I'll steer her away from it. Thanks for the insight.

Guest

Sure glad I read these reviews before buying Wrecking Balm, think Ill save my money!

Guest

I have a tattoo of a busted cherry on my *** will wreaking balm remove it.

I passed out at a party and woke up with is.and my wife wants it gone.

Guest

I have been using Wrecking Balm for about a month. You can definately see the difference in my tattoo.

It really is fading.

I think it is going to take a while for the whole thing to go away, but its worth it. Much better than laser removal.........

Guest

If it takes up to a year for results then why is there a 30 day money back guarantee instead of a 365 day money back guarantee??

Guest

they sell this product at most walmarts for about fifty bucks..so instead of wasting more of your time complaining about a sales rep who probably works on commission and most likely has their job threatened if you call and ask dumb questions that are probably answered on their website and don't but anthting. just do your own research online and stop blaming the poor guys that just work for this *** company.at least they have a job and aren't mooching off tax payers,yes?

So glad that I researched it before I bought it!

I've had laser removal on my tat once before and it has faded so much. I haven't had the chance to go back for a while and I heard about Wrecking Balm from a friend. I thought I would be easier and less painful. I'm so glad that I read some reviews on it before I bought it!!! If you really want to get a tat removed, suck it up and try laser removal! You will get better results. The colors green and blue can be difficult to remove with a laser, I find it hard to believe that Wrecking Balm can remove them at all!!! Jennifer Geneseo, IL.

can anyone paslee tell me where this is done at? the place im going to now says its going to take 8-10 treatments and its $300 each treatment for the tattoo size i have and this video was done in ONE AND I REPEAT ONE TREATMENT! HELP!

Guest

i think people who comment on other peoples post be they relevent or not should at least have the courtesy to not call them names and *** and idiots and things like that it makes YOU sound like a dumba** yourself she was thanking people for helping her which is essentially what sites like this are for to help consumers make a decision stop being rude and acting like you were rased in a barn

Guest

Please don't review a product based on what what you read from other people.

I came here to read other people's results, not a third hand summary of what YOU read on the internet.

I can read the same reviews that you read.

Guest

To Gemini who wrote; “before you go making wrongful assumptions about a product, try it first and then come back with your opinion!” You’re a ***! The reason people are commenting is because that have used it!

And the product sucks, it does not work, and it’s called a “scam”. People that are posting are giving others there experience with the product, and hopefully saving them time and money before making the purchase. Either they are going to use the information to help with their purchase, or they are not. It’s a personal choice that only they can make.

This is an open forum created to help the consumer, and not randomly defame a product. If you would take the time and carefully read the postings you will see that the comments are from people who have used the product and it did not work for them…get it?

Guest

i had tats on my arm and got it completely removed but with scarring and hair loss. laser works. it took 18 treatments and 3,000 or so dollars later i was ok.

Guest

seems like you guys are getting awfully heated that someone would give this product a bad review, if you are all honestly just consumers then why would you care so much what someone would think?

do you work for this company or did you buy stock?

Guest

The only way you'll really ever know if it works is by trying it for yourself instead of reading reviews from people you dont even know if they really tried it or if they are just talking ***

Guest

Not wasting my money on this garbage,besides...I actually LIKE my tats unlike u hillbillys!!

Guest

i researched on line & found out the top recommended product is called tat med. wrecking balm was # 4.

I bought tat med buy 2 get 1 free for 100 bucks. it claims to take 4 months. started treatment 10-13-09. I have seen a lighter color.

its gonna take more than 4 months, but seems to be working.The clear gel brings ink to the surface, gets darker at first as a result. I put conditioner on my tat in shower, then scrub the *** out of it with an exfoliator.(wal-mart). after the scrubbing, you can feel the lines of the tat.Then i apply the gel.It is getting lighter, & just started on my second bottle. A little goes a long way, so I think it is going to work, just takes elbow grease.

you have got to scrub your tat daily.Will post at a later date to tell my progress.It helps to take a pic, so you can see the changes. Nothing works overnight.cant say it enough- the key is scrubbing.

Guest

THANKS GEMINI,I'M DOING MY RESEARCH ON WRECKING BALM AND THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU I FEEL EVEN BETTER AND MORE CONFIDENT ON BUYING THIS PRODUCT. 8)

Wrecking Balm

I called the toll free number to get some information on this product. Information that was all. And the woman on the line pushed and pushed to get me to order the product. She would not take no for an answer. I finally had to hang up the phone to get her to stop. To me that is not good customer service. If the customer service reps get paid on commission I suggest that the company pay them different to keep people on the line. I have 15 tattoos total and I was just looking to remove one and seeing it on television it looked too good to be true. I am glad that I got online and did some research before I wasted my money on something that doesn't work.

John that works at the company, first of all your job sounds pathetic! If someone calls a company to get information on a product, why in the *** should they have to be pressured into buying something?!

That is a load of ***! And second of all you do have "a choice" find a new job that you don't have to be such an *** to not get fired! Insted of blaming this ridiculous job on some random person, maybe you should consider the jerks that you work for! If I had the same attitude as you about giving people information, and telling them to go online instead of bothering me, I would expect to lose my job.

I work in a hospital and give people information on services all the time. How would you feel if you went into a hospital and someone told you if you want info, go online and look for it and stop bothering me, that would make you real happy wouldn't it? Oh and if everyone went online how would you get any sales? Because I know for me after reading all the comments on how this product is nothing but a waste of money, I sure as heck ain't buying it.

The only way it seems you make your money is being a dishonest, rude and irritating sales person. People like you are disgusting!

Guest

:) I HAD ORDER MY OFFICE RETURNED THE PRODUCT. CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS VARY VARY HAPY ABOUTTHE PERSON SEAN . HE ANSWERED ALL QUESTION AND HAVE REORDERED ON LINE HAPPLY JAMES CARTER SR

Guest

If you cant call a company to ask information on their product without being hassled they can keep their product i dont want it! and to john i suggest looking for a different job because of the several hundred reviews on wrecking balm ive heard only five "good" ones and they look as if they were by the same customer.

Guest

I work for the company and we HAVE to push for the sale or we lose our job. So we dont really have a choice.

And it is people like you that make our jobs harder. Every call that doesnt order penalizes us. So when we get *** like you that just want information you are potentially getting us fired. So ya.

We are gonna hassle you till you order or hang up. So if you just want information, go online i dont come to your work "Just for information" So dont come bothering me.

Guest

WHY ARE YOU TRIPPIN OF SOMETHING YOU HAVEN'T USED :?

Guest

if you haven't used the product...don't review it.
