How to take care of my new art

Hey Guys, I'm new to the world of Tats, and must say, I just decided to go big, or go home. (I'm 41 so I just don't apologize for anything I do anymore... sorry wife...) My first tattoo covers my entire left upper arm from shoulder to elbow. What's the problem? It just looks so incredibly freaking good, that I'm a little worried about doing the best I can to take care of it. My shop had me using A+D to heal it, and now Mostly just lubriderm once a day, with A+D on occasion. Are any of those "fancy, specialized" products way better, or does this seem like a pretty good plan? Thanks anyone!

Just stick with what your artist told you to do. Thats all you need to do.

DITTO!!! DITTOO!!! ON WHAT KRYSTOF SAYS YUPPERS

Sounds like a good plan. Thanks Guys!

Hey Cactus where can we see yer work? WE Loooovvveee seein new work!!!!...E mail it to me or somethin dude!...TAz

Taz, shoot me your email, and I'll be happy to send you the drawing. I only have the outline right now, still need to get color starting next week, but I can certainly send you the outline. I found a fantastic artist here in Denver at a place Called Twisted Sol. The guy's name is Lee Ball, and man, what a professional. Clean, talented, personable, light touch, and really really artistic. Did a fantastic tribute to my twin daughters. It's awesome. Let me know how I can post it, or send it to ya... Cactus Al
