Theshizirl Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Alright, I will admit it. I'm kind of obsessing over this, but some feedback would help me put this to rest. I got a forearm band tattoo that is 50% complete. I go back in early May so if I find what looks like a faded line, I try to have the attitude that I can always get a touch up. It has been 12 days since I got the tattoo, and I'm in the flaking stage but most of the scabs are still there. However I've found myself fixating on some of the lines looking very slightly blurry. Is this blowout or am I just overthinking it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Tattoos take 4-6 weeks to heal, longer if they went in rough. No matter how you ask the question, you’ll know what it looks like when it heals. Quit looking at it with a microscope. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oboogie Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Just let it heal. Look at the 10,000 other posts asking the same question. Your case isn't unique. It is pretty much the same post over and over on the whole of the initiation board. Hogrider and Samth 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I thought they'd read it, I'd recommend a sticky thread, but everyone thinks their situation is special. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single person thinks they are the first ever. And they all stare at it with a magnifying glass. Who has that kind of time, and what do they think it will change? I just don't understand. 🤦♀️ Hogrider and Maynard 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simong Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Still needs to heal, you won’t know what it looks like until a month or more. They always look rough when healing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
