Yes some shedding is to be expected as the skin starts to heal beneath it will flake away the dead skin and scabs above.
Losing a bit each time you put cream on is normal just don’t rub it vigourously or pick at it and it will be fine.
Take Care and I cannot wait to see healed pics – damn i have so much ink envy at the moment I am gonna go all green.
:p

lol thanks man, i’ll give an update once healed. how long does the scabbing usually last? the whole 2 weeks?
i want it to be healed alreadyyyyyy
Would love some clearer pics but from what i can see that is going to be a very sweet sleeve you ahev going on there.
I do have a question though.
What the hell is that creepy looking wooden sculpture down in the last pic?
I know I had a smoke but damn did that give me the paranoid jitters i swear it was looking at me :p
Take Care
Matthew
lol thank you sir, once it’s healed I would get some better pics but right now it is scabbing and all that crap.
the wooden sculpture is of a manatee I got down in key west lol…
question for you, if you don’t mind. my other tattoo wasn’t that big so I didn’t have much scabbing, this takes up all the inside of my arm, so more scabbing, question is, when I rub in my cream, some of the scabbing comes with it, is this ok? I’m not picking at it or anything, its just when i rub n the cream..
touch ups are the same healing process as when you first got the tattoo
Sherav has a good point. I apologize to the O/P for continuing the arguement with you, In the beginning I did just say my opinion about your tattoo. If you like it that is really what matters, it is your piece of art,the hell with peoples opinions. 🙂
yeah I understand, once I got my first one I was hooked so I think that is why I am wanting another one so badly already. I’m saving my right arm for a quarter sleeve of a moray eel and a reef scene ( I have been keeping moray eels for over 3 years and saltwater tanks is my hobby) so that is gonna be expensive, maybe I should just start saving up for that…
I have always wanted a tattoo on my inner upper arm so that is why I don’t want to get anything just cause I want another tattoo, I guess I will take my time and enjoy the one I have for now…
thanks forthe reply, I will post up some pics soon!!
I am having second thoughts on the whole “family” tattoo thing, not sure why so idk what to do…
I want to get something interesting for the inside of my arm and idk if family will do it for me. I look every day on checkoutmyink.com to see if I get any ideas, which I do. but I don’t see it fitting on my arm…
are there any other sites like checkoutmyink that have actual pictures and not flash art?
hello everyone…
just got back from getting my touch up done, looks much better now 😀
quick question, the aftercare is the same as getting the tattoo the first time?
wash with soap and water 3-4 times a day then after you wash put the cream on it?
I also got a price for “family” so I will have to think about what I really want to get then go in and make an appointment
better than mine when you haven’t even seen mine? You think you have a good tattoo then good for you, everyone else who has posted in your thread doesn’t agree. be the bigger person you think you are and shut the fuck up already.
why do I need to use proper grammar on a fuckin forum? you can still read what I’m saying so wtf is the problem? I don’t eat twinkies you fat fuck so way to be original and use the same shit I said to you. I thought you were the bigger person but you still comin back with more shit. I will end it though, I apologize you have to live with a horrible piece of shit fat ugly deformed bitch on your arm for the rest of your life.
but if you like it then that’s what matters.
your the bigger person considering you sent me a pathetic PM cause you can’t handle the truth? wtf you talking about fans for? you got shit to say so stfu and stop tryin to be somethin while your eating twinkies at your computer. don’t post shitty tattoo work on a PUBLIC forum if you don’t want the PUBLICS opinion.
HAVE A GREAT DAY.
thanks marcus I apreciate your input as well. I have been leaning towards “family” more because I feel I can do more with it in the area I want it, I don’t like the idea that it isn’t original but I have some ideas to make it more personilzed then the usual family in the common script writing. thursday I go in for my touch up so I’m gonna get a price fr “Family” and give him my ideas and see what he can do.
I will give an update soon, thanks for the advice.
your a fuckin piece of shit, why would you send me a private messege telling me I don’t have a fully developed brain. I am not the only one who said it was a bad tattoo, if you want me to explain why I would be happy to, but I think saying it looks like shit works just as well. You gonna try and be slick then learn how to insult someone jackass.
heres the PM so everyone can laugh with me.
“Aw Salt, that is so nice of you to say. But then again, I guess your brain hasn’t exactly formed fully yet. So, I understand why you would think that. Maybe one day you will fully develope a brain. But, I wouldn’t hold my breath.”
I’m from south florida too! west palm area…
what shop are you thinkin about going to?
I got mine done at hell cat tattoos
geeze man you make it hard to decide! lol
you are great with explaining things. I understand what you are saying and I agree. I’m not really sure what to do :confused:
It is gonna be on the inside of my upper left arm, thats the only reason why I think Family would look better if I got it nice and bold to fill out the area… I didn’t know if the quote would look crammed up since I want it a nice size cause I don’t really like smaller tattoos
thanks again Sherav, I really apreciate your input.
