  I wouldn't worry about it, but I wouldn't get any more sun on it between now and then. Just keep it moisturized, but don't drown it.

  Hey, I accidentally burnt my shoulder today (has never happened before...) and in 6 days I’m supposed to get my shoulder tattoo touched up and adding to it... (right where I burnt it) The tattoo artist has been really hard to get a hold of and after months of waiting, I’d hate to lose this appointment. I know they won’t ink a sunburn but do you think it will heal in time and even if it does, do you think it’s a good idea to tattoo the shoulder? Not a terrible burn and no pain but I’m v

  1 month old tattoo question.
  

  By Wonton · Started 20 hours ago

  Hello all. New member first time posting. Would love some advice. My tattoo is 1 month old, but the spots on the pics below look weird after the skin fell off (that skin when it fell off was pretty hard too). There is no pain or anything just looks like missing ink but ti looked perfect when it was first finished. Is it still healing or should i put something on it?? Thank you.   3

  hi everyone,   sorry if this is the wrong place for this, i’m new and this was the only forum i could post in. i have quite a few tattoos and have never had a problem taking care of them, but the one i just got i think might be infected? i got it a week ago and there are some pretty thick scabs in some areas, it’s a little warm to the touch, and a little sensitive to touch. other areas were warm and had similar thick scabs have healed just fine but i’m just not sure if i need to go to 3

  Finally got my first tattoo.  I love it, but was apprehensive.  My biggest mistake, I should have made it larger.  Now, i would need to add around it.   So, looking for creative minds on this site  to throw out some idea's....  would like to try and keep the same theme in B/W... 3

  Hi; we are invited to watch these videos; and certainly there is something rather special about calligraphy tattoos with wording - often in simple black - in various, ornate possibilities, as Katie S. speaks of, here.

  I think that everything is cool and correctly said, just one more important point, everyone has different fantasies and ideas.  And only a good specialist can give useful advice!  Some people want a kingpin tattoo supply for themselves, but at the same time they do not understand and do not know some of the nuances.  I believe that a good specialist is the one who can give advice and recommendations to the client.  Then you will definitely be satisfied with the result.
