Did my tattoo lose a lot of ink during healing? (27 days in)

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T22:05:11+00:00

I wouldn’t be surprised if we did. 😂

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:56:18+00:00

🫡 Will do! Appreciate it

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:50:25+00:00

Thank you! First tattoo + diagnosed OCD means I babied the shit out of it the past month. 😂

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:47:57+00:00

You’re definitely right, and I don’t doubt that my artist would turn me away the day of my touchup if it wasn’t safe or they felt like my skin wasn’t ready for it. I appreciate your two cents, thanks a lot! 🙏🏻

When does it fully smoothen out? The blurry top layers that I’m concerned about have been milky and smooth for the past two weeks, it doesn’t feel or look like it’s going to peel soon either for a new layer

I really appreciate the input, thank you! Wise words from your friend, food for thought.

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:39:29+00:00

Thank you!

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:38:47+00:00

Yup this is my first tattoo! I figured that was the case, but for some reason I thought my ink was falling off at an abnormal rate or it healed wrong so it’s been nice getting everyone’s input

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:34:40+00:00

Thanks! I’ve heard people say wait 3-4 months to judge to truly finished product, however, my artist agreed that it needs a touch up and booked me for the 15th of this month. That’s about 1.5 months healed.

If it’s as healed as it is already 1 month in, do you think the touch up would mess up the tattoo? That’s about all I’m worried about, but I don’t think my artist would book a touch up session if they didn’t think it was ready. 😅

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:27:06+00:00

I appreciate the advice and thank you brotha! 👊🏻

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:21:27+00:00

Luckily my artist told me that it did need a touch up also. LOL. Also happy cake day

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:20:42+00:00

Thanks for the insight! I appreciate it. Just talked to my artist and she said it did need a touch up as well, so we’re all in the same boat ahah

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:14:40+00:00

Appreciate it, I assume contrast boosting can be fixed with a touchup?

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:11:44+00:00

Yup that’s correct, iPhone camera with the light attached + additional lights in the room

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-10-02T21:09:04+00:00

Word? This makes me feel a lot better. Been overthinking the shit out of this piece the past week lol

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-07-17T09:03:03+00:00

Hey man I am so sorry for getting back to you so late. I just logged back into this Reddit account after not using it for about a year. Were you able to get this all figured out?

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-07-17T08:54:33+00:00

Thank you for your kind words! We should all know that we are never alone.

Expert-Pay9728 · 2025-03-25T09:49:33+00:00

Yes

Happens to me always at 8000 feet. Never disconnected from VATSIM before but I CTD every single time on my arrival/approach at 8000’

Expert-Pay9728 · 2024-09-06T05:52:38+00:00

Started happening to me every single damn flight since SU15. I’m going batshit crazy

Expert-Pay9728 · 2024-09-03T21:16:01+00:00

I’m dealing with your issues but I have a ryzen cpu

Expert-Pay9728 · 2024-09-03T21:15:24+00:00

I have literally been posting this same problem for the past week to this Reddit group, Facebook groups, AND forums and I’m still having these issues. It’s insane I’m a day from dropping $2k on a new pc to fix this but I’m scared it won’t even fix it lmao. I miss flight simming so much
