There's a painless way to take off plasters and people's minds are being blown

If you don't want it to hurt when you peel off a plaster then give this method a try

We've basically all been in that situation where we need to take off a plaster but would rather avoid peeling off ourselves and probably plucking out a whole bunch of hairs in the process.

While they're great for covering up injuries and giving them a good chance to heal, when the time comes to remove the plaster it can be easier to think it's maybe better left another day or two.

There's a reason why the Americans have the saying that you have to 'rip the Band-Aid off', and they're not talking about stealing lyrics from songs made to raise money for charity.

The simple fact is that pulling off a plaster tends to be quite painful, and considering you use them to cover up injuries you'd probably be quite annoyed if they didn't grip quite so tightly to your skin.

However, TikToker Sidney Raz claims to have come up with a painless way to remove them and demonstrated his method on his channel.

Apparently the trick is to pull up rather than peel off.

Posing in front of his Doctor Who wall decorations, he applied a plaster to his arm and said the trick was to simply 'pull up' rather than trying to peel it off.

The TikToker said he 'didn't even feel that happen', and people have been glad to learn about this one weird trick which may save them a minor inconvenience of a slight jab of pain from time to time.

Someone said the painless method was 'dark magic' while a second wanted to know 'what is this sorcery'.

Another commented 'MY SON THANKS YOU FOR THIS' as others lamented going this long in life without painlessly removing a plaster.

Even people who didn't think it was entirely effective but had tried it for themselves said they could 'confirm that this is less painful'.

Some people reckoned the method wouldn't work if he had more arm hair or left the plaster on for longer.

However, plenty of people were pretty sceptical of his suggested method as they thought he wasn't really putting his body through a fair and proper test.

One person invited Sidney to 'try that again after two days of wearing it', painting a rather graphic picture of 'when the sticky parts melted into your hairs and pores through body temperature'.

Someone else echoed that criticism, suggesting the plaster came off easily since he'd just put it on, suggesting he 'leave it for a few days and try it'.

As an individual with what I would call an extremely generous allocation of arm hair (which is pretty useful for this time of year) I myself would be doubtful that this method would work with zero pain.

Meanwhile, one guy didn't seem interested in the advice at all as apparently 'the pain builds character'.
