Hey--- I just got my first tattoos this past Saturday--- so right now they are 2 days old going on 3 days. They are 2 figures--- one on the right side of my upper chest and the other on the other side. No color was used, just heavy black outline. I love them SO much, the guys was great and place was SO clean!
Anyways--- I left a message for them--- hoping to hear from them soon---- but they told me after I got tattooed, that leave the bandage on until I got home, than wash it with warm water really good with anti. soap with the palm of my hand and pat dry. They told me not to use any creams, and just use Vaseline Advanced Healing Freagrance-Free lotion, right after washing it and through out the healing process. Now my brother got some work on his leg--- and we are treating ours the same way and together. But it seems like his is doing better than mine. Mine are soar, like a sunburn in a way, it has a realy litle scrabbing layer going on here. I am depressed because I am so excited about them--- and cant wait for more, but I am worry that my body is healing wired. I apply the lotion 5-7 times a day like the tell me too, not to much and not to little. I dont know if this is just my body healing it self or what. I dont know if this is common or not, there seems to be lite and small black flacking happening. I read that thats normal, but is it after 2 days though? I am falling the directions carefully---- what I am asking have you seen this before? and is it common?
Thank You Greatly---!!!
