Hey there...check out the aftercare thread : https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/f/11-tattoo-after-care/

Keeping it clean (at least twice a day, no more than three if you get sweaty/dirty) and lightly moisturized is what you need to do. :) I'd switch from Aquaphor to Lubriderm (or equivalent) after 4 days or so. Try not to sweat too much or rub it. Don't re-wrap it. Sleep on your other side! 

 

lets say i sweated after gym what should i do? moisturize it or apply aquaphor or let air dry 

Products: -Aquaphor

-Lubriderm

-Dial hand soap gold antibacterial

-Paper Towels

-Plastic wrap?

Getting my first tattoo this Saturday at 3pm on my rib cage

Week one

-Dont take bandage off until next day if its sterile bandage.

-Wake up. Get into shower take off bandage clean with the dial soap. pat tattoo dry. apply thin layer of aquaphor. leave it uncovered.

-Apply another thing layer of aquaphor

-Clean and apply aquaphor before getting to bed

Week 2/ when it scabs

Same thing just sub lubriderm for aquaphor.

Thats really it. I'm a senior in highschool and still take PE what should i do about should i apply a wrap or sterile bandage in the locker room then after apply aquaphor or just go without anything. i don't really sweat though because i slack off alot unless we are playing basketball then i might sweat. and should i sleep with a bandage too or just put a tank top on and sleep on my other side
