It varies depending on a number if factors, but the flaking is the dead top layers of skin falling off to be replaced by new skin. It happens slowly all the time, not during any particular process.

Yes, I understand that but is it fine for it to come off when washing it, dabbing it dry with towel, applying cream or sleeping…[Read more]

There is a big difference between healing a wound and healing a tattoo. My dad is a paramedic, and has been in the medical industry for almost 30 years, and he still listens to exactly what his artist says and how long he should be doing somethings.

Healed after a week? Don’t think so darling.

I think it totally depends on what the tattoo is actually of, saying that anywhere visible will cause problems 99% of the time for employment.

Very good.

I just hope you’re using liquid soap, because soap bars carry all sorts of nasty crap you don’t want in your open wounds 🙂

Amazingly enough Wardy wasn’t being an ass. He was attempting a conversation with you and raising a valid point.

Why on earth didn’t you think about this BEFORE you got tattooed? It’s pretty late in the game to have it already happen and being completely unprepared for the problems at hand. (unintentional pun, there)

As…[Read more]

Surely you should be able to book a week’s holiday in advance? Always plan your tattoo a month before hand 🙂

I wouldn’t wear gloves within the first couple days. After that, maybe some loose work gloves would be ok, as long as they don’t rub the skin. Otherwise you could probably put a little piece of loose saran wrp or something similar in between your hand and the glove. It’s not the best thing for breathability, but better…[Read more]
