    My tattoo is really scabbing alot and I was wondering if I should still lotion on it because I am scared I might rip the scabs.. Should I let it dry heal? Below is a pic of the tattoo.

    No, you have to put it.
    Plus, its gonna get off, atleast it should. 😉
    Plus, don’t they fix it for free at your place?

    Hi

    Don’t worry too much as long as you are not swamping the scabs they will be fine.

    Applying a small amount of lotion will stop the scabs from cracking. Looks like the area has been overworked a little but nice tattoo.

    Take Care

    what cream are you using ?????? how often and how much ?????

    its a nice design but very much overworked, it looks like the red was a bitch to get in for the artist, the fangs area was overworked as well, but it is healing quite nicely to be honnest with you.

    ps… welcome to the forum 😉

    I started using A and D ointment for the first 4 days, usually 3-4 times a day and I also used a very thin layer as I heard it is not good to put alot.

    This morning I have switched to Eucerim Plus Intensive Repair Fragrance Free Lotion. How much times a day should I put the lotion? I think I will go for a touchup after it looks healed.

    Here’s the tattoo a couple minutes after it was finished.
