Make sure that you use a good hydrating creme/lotion every day for like 3 weeks or so. And, if you want the color to remain good - use it often. Moisture will maintain it.

Damn this is like a CP real life Jason Momoa Super Bowl commercial. Feel like that arm should be bigger, right?!

j/k looks good man, much respect for being yourself and getting what you want

I find the creams slow the healing process for me. vitamn a/e, tatooo goo, redemption.. all healed just fine, but stayed 'moist/ and prolongged the scabbing portion of the healing process.

This last session on my sleeve i just used cetephil and water and by god it healed to perfection, quickly.

Uh, scabbing portion? WTF is that?

You are about one to two days out is my guess.

Yours wont be bad at all, since its so little surface area. But yes it will scab up then kind of fall off, After that, its almost healed for real.

Good to know. :thumb:

I am putting lotion on it several times a day.

I have an American Flag that has white in it that has held for 20 years.

It’s a fairly large piece and I had the white redone on a couple sessions.

It was one day.

Glad I knew it was coming. I'd be a bit concerned otherwise.

We were always told to use aquaphor. Tattoo looks good bro. I gotta get my Jamaica tatt first but a Chiefs one will be after that for sure.

DO NOT. I REPEAT DO NOT PICK THE SCABS.

Thanks. I figured that was a no-no.

Who did this?

FRIGGEN AWESOME!!!

That looks great, Frazod. I like to do something similar, love the arrowhead.

Thanks. I think it's almost healed now. Still a little itchy at times, but that's about it. Still putting lotion on it a couple of times a day. The scabbing phase seems to have passed.
