I think she said “Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion” not Vaseline salve. It sounds like there are several choices for the lotion after the A&D…I use Lubriderm but I’m sure Curel or any other unscented lotion should work. Again, though, ask your particular artist.

2 of my tats are somewhat “copy”–one is flash and the other is pretty basic. My 3rd was a design by someone to help raise money for animal rescue and I paid for the outline, etc. My 4th is somewhat original…I gave my artist a pic but the final tat doesn’t look like the pic, and I like it a lot better. She did give me the sketch though when I left. Any good artist should give you the original of what you get, whether they drew it for you or you drew it yourself.
