eggselent Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I got this tattoo over a month ago and since then everything has seemed to heal fine. The whites of the egg however have been discolored and im wondering what i should do. There has been no scarring or raising skin. only discoloration for what I think should be white. Do you think there is anything wrong? Did i take care of this incorrectly? i'll provide both a current pic (Close up) and a less quality pic (Zoomed out) of the day i got it. PS the redness outside of that tatto was just me pinching the skin because this is on my ribs and i cant see it very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 White ink ages differently that other colors, but I'm not sure what's going on with the egg. The white highlights on the pan look normal. Have you asked the tattooist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I think the term 'allergic reaction' is waaaaaaaaay over used. I don't see anything that would qualify as an allergic reaction here. I agree with @SStu, see the tattoo artist that did this. Gingerninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White doesn't look the same after it heals. It pretty much totally disappeared on my very first tattoo. eggselent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a lot of research on ink allergies before I had my first tattoo. The number of actual verified cases of an allergic reaction to tattoo ink is very, very small.

I'm not an old man, but I feel the same. 🙂 NOPE NOPE NOPE. Hogrider and Gingerninja 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaue Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Maybe it's just an over easy egg and it's a little brown from the fried butter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
