un1verse Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Hello all, my dad recently got his first tattoo, and we’re both pretty stressed about what is normal, and what is not. We know that aquaphor is good for tattoos (i think), and keeping it moisturized is key. Please help, we’ll accept any tips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Use just enough to keep the skin moist. Too little is better than too much. Yes scabbing is normal. Edited July 12, 2021 by Hogrider SStu and oboogie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oboogie Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I'd start dry healing. Just keep it clean and stop putting anything on it. You are definitely drowning it. SStu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 those just look like spots where the tattooist dug in a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
