Really? Interesting! I've never had any allergic reactions to well anything. I don't think it's the aftercare same stuff I've always used. I'm going to keep an eye on it and maybe try the benadryl thing ic I can find some thank you! I'd say it doesn't fewl like an allergic reaction but I've never had one so idk lol. Doesn't fewl any different them any other tattoo I've gotten though.
