    Hello everyone, I got my 3rd tattoo a week ago and part of it is very cracked with little to no ink is set in the skin (my arm twists a lot in this spot). I already know it’s going to have to be redone there. Is there a certain length of time to wait before having touch ups done? Thanks!

    My tattoo guy always tells me that I need to wait “at least a few weeks” between sittings for the same area. I’d say give it a month or so to settle down and then consult your artist in regard to a touch up — which, by the way, should be FREE if the damage and cracking was not your fault. Best of luck! Don’t stress about it too much. =]

    Thanks for the encouragement! Good to hear that I may only have to wait a few weeks too cuz it’s not looking good.

    The artist will fix it up for free but I’m tempted to go to my old artist too get it done right. I really don’t have much confidence left in the guy that did it but maybe he should get a chance to make it right……I don’t know yet.
