hopefully you guys can help me. I got my first tat saturday. I was satisfied with the work. Its a the bacardi bat all black and skin. The artist told me to put fragrance free hand lostion on it so i used lubriderm. it started to cake on so i washed it off and switched to a&d ointment. now i notice a teeny spot at the bottom that looks like a pixel out on a computer moniter. could this be healing or did he miss a spot?? any help would be appretiated. Thankx.
Ya won't know til it heals for a while longer...Be patient and if ya need a touch up talk to your artist!! Hope this helped!...TAz
Thnx for the help ill just wait and see
I am about a week and a half into healing. I wouldn't worry at this point. It will not look good for a couple of weeks. The spot you think is a problem may look fine in a day or so. I had one spot on mine that I tought was really messed up. It just turned out that some flaking skin was stuck to that spot. A day later it came off and everything looked good again. Just give it some time. I know with mine it peeled once and a week later it is starting to peel a little again.
yea ur right, it looks like a mess right now with parts starting to peel, ill keep my fingers crossed. thnx for the help.
