If it heals up nice, which if its a good artist and you follow his/her healing protocols it should be clear, dry and peel free after a full week. You should be fine doing that with a loose “dry” wrap if any, as long as its covered. Just dont lube it and cover it though. But just remember you wont know till you get it if its healed enough by then so its going it be a hit and miss issue when the time comes. But assuming its a full no problem week you should be fine with just non physical contact conditioning.
Good luck and I wish you all the best

It’s that risky? Thanks for the concern. I mean I could apply a&d at least 3G during practice. Ur the expert tho.. And wrapping it loosely is out of the question?

Its just to hard to tell as I said because it all depends on how healed it is. But its your body but from experience its just not worth it. Last thing you want to do is chance any problems with something you paided good coin for and permanent. Why risk scaring or any other problems. Also you shouldnt be using A&D after a week if at all, you should be just using tiny bits of non scented lotion by then. All artists are different and been a on going discussion for ever on healing products. A&D’s and Vasoline type products are oil based and clog pores not really good for healing and can slow process down, but thats just my choice. But thats another story.

Hi,

My wife and I had a baby boy 3 months ago, and I would like to get a tattoo…

I didn’t know if it was alright to get his name and his hand print on my leg with his date of birth. I really like this concept but wanted some peoples opinions.

I didn’t want it to look like a “memorial” for someone who passed away, so I was looking for suggestions.

Thank you,

Jim

I would do the hand print and his name and maybe leave out the birth date. Now if you are going to do the actual size of the hand print it may be to small to get on a larger surface area and wont look right because a tiny piece can look lost. For a small hand print it may look better on a wrist area.
Cheers

I start football speed and conditioning a week from now, which is extremely hard. I sweat alot alot, have to run, and weight lift. If I get a tat a week before this will it get ruined?

To much risk of infection because everyone heals a different rates and also depends on the type of work that needs to be done. Plus even if it did heal quick the new skin is very tender and weak so any rubbing, friction or hit to area could open it or irritate the area and cause unforseen issues as its still healing even if you cant see it healing and looks fine. Just wait brother dont risk it, not worth it.
