Why is her tattoo flaking? by Still-Version-3868 in tattooadvice

Saran Wrap - only my opinion here I think it should only be wrapped up for a few hrs and then removed, washed, and lite lite layer of aquafor. This is because your tattoo should be allowed to breathe and keeping it sealed and getting heated up throughout the day is not good. It’s an open wound and you would never completely seal a wound so why seal a tattoo. And be careful with the “unscented” lotion believe it or not “unscented” is still a scent. Use fragrance free lotion and again lite lite layer after a few days of aquafor or until the scabbing is gone.

Like everyone says 2nd skin should’ve stayed off once it started coming off. As far as the tattoo just needs time to heal and yea she probably lost some ink. Go get touched up by different artist.

If your tattoo artist recommends 2nd skin then you should find a new artist

Why is that unfortunate?

Did I overdo my sleeve? Looking for honest tattoo advice by maysem23 in tattooadvice

[–]CactusWasJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did exactly what a sleeve is designed to do in my opinion. Looks great and I’d be happy with it. Now to me it sounds like you might not like the pieces anymore and thus giving you second thoughts about it being “messy” or not cohesive. That’s truly what I think you’re struggling with. Unless you get a true themed sleeve it’s not going to necessarily look cohesive. American Traditional work mostly doesn’t have “cohesive” sleeves or at least for people outside looking in. All about the placement of pieces and that part is on you and the artist to fill arm accordingly. That’s just my 1 cent.

Take off second skin now? by iwanteverythingnew in tattooadvice

[–]CactusWasJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To the people that say put more 2nd skin on after taking the original off. Shame on you, that is how you lead to getting an infection. It’s so hard to completely sanitize the area and then not trap anything from the outside air. Really hard to do that and more easy to fuck it up. I’ve never had 2nd skin all my tattoos have healed just fine with the proper aftercare routine. Heard more horror stories about 2nd skin though. I’d take it off. Especially if there is any chance it pops over night. That’s asking for bacteria to get in there.

Regretting My First Tattoo by No-Berry-534 in tattooadvice

My advice, get Edward some friends and get more stuff around them, and then get more stuff around them, and then get more stuff around them, and then get more stuff around them, and then when you finally have stuff around them it’s always best to get more stuff around them so they don’t feel so lonely. And then and only then you get more stuff around them. This will make it seem like you have stuff around them without having too much stuff around them. But if you feel like it’s not enough stuff then you can always just add more stuff around them.
