healed but now, it is so dry..? i can see like little lines in it, like when your skin gets really really dry, this isnt my first so I know how to take care of it and all my others never had this issue, ive ben using this stuff called ink fix which my artist gave to me? ant ideas, is this normal?
have u tried a bit of moisturiser? that might help.. 🙂
two excellent products if you can get them are “tattoo repair cream” By wildcat and Bepanthen that you can get from a chemist, bepanthen is for nappy rash but very well known in the tattoo industry! If your tattoo is over dry its not good and wont heal best because it needs moisture to heal and keep the colour in! put cream on it about 1 hour after youve had your shower to let the water absorb out of your skin first not to trap it under and then be too moist! put cream on and if your using bepanthen pat some off becuase its quite think! do it for about 4 weeks if you still see your other tattoo underneath go back to your tattooist, because if there decent they should touch it up for free!
i highly suggest lotion with cocoa butter in it it works like a charm my bf just got a tat that dried up really bad and i gave him this vaseline intensive care with cocoa butter and its smooth as a babys bottom now lol
i know it sounds weird but a&d ointmet. ive been in the tattoo industry and ive always used a&d with no problems. it helps the tattoo heal faster along with keeping it moist
Just keep it moisturized. After the tattoo has healed use coccoa butter lotion to keep it moist.
I always use Lubiderm lotion because it has moisturizer in it and just keep using it..the warmer it gets then more it wont be so dry.
