ocdcollector Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Hi there, I'm Flied, from Asia! Got a few tattoos on my body already! :D I have a question, regarding tattoo blowouts. This is my first time encountering something like this, as much as I think it is a blowout already.. But I just want confirmation from the veterans in this field. Image posted.

a_beukeveld Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I can see it. Looks fine, and it looks like it just started flaking over, correct? It looks just like it should. Healing tattoos always look super fuckedup, because theres multiple layers of deadskin ontop of the actual tattoo, thats where you get that foggy black on the edges of the flakes. Keep it clean and dont pick at it. It will heal just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marley mission Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) well nothing to do really but wait until it heals then you'll know what you're dealing with i definetly think you have some blowout going on not the end of the world but it might be a factor to consider as you decide where this piece is headed once it heals Edited September 3, 2016 by marley mission Dan and Devious6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDeepFried Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Is it finished or are you adding color/shading? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocdcollector Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi guys thanks for the reply, I'll take the advice I'm given and see how the piece is after healing. Yes this will be a shaded piece. In Black/Grey. Question 2, if my arm develops something like a rash but it doesn't itches after trying out a new brand of numbing cream, what should I do?

marley mission Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 @Flied what are we looking at in this last pic - little more story too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocdcollector Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) Just got some shading done, used a brand called walter ritter numbing cream. The numbing cream came out fine initially, but towards the end of the tube some liquid came out, which we threw away. Wrapped it in clingwrap and after 1 hour 30 minutes when we removed the clingwrap. We noticed redness on the skin like in the picture above.

marley mission Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 well the skin looks irritated or brusied? is it because of the cream? who knows but seems like your tattoo experiences have been a little rough lately blown out lines and now this is something happening in the tattoo process that needs consideration? and - why numbing cream? bongsau 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDeepFried Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I'd stop using the stuff. Was it recommended by your tattooer? I wouldn't worry about the blowouts. You're still healing and the tattoo isn't finished yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
