    I got a tattoo last thursday (2nd Jan) and have been advised not to swim for about two weeks. However I have a swimming class on Monday, 10 days after getting it done. Should I go? The tattoo has healed very well and I have not had any problems with it.

    Definately not – it maybe 10 days old, but its still an entry source for bacteria – I mean do you know what goes into the water at a swimming pool – apart from urine, sweat and faeces – think of the chemicals as well.

    Depends on how heavy it is.

    Welcome to the forum!

    English skin is right you cannot go into a pool of water of any kind, you will (most likely) have problems with it if you do. It’s to early.

    The point is why risk it? Definitely not a chlorine pool or the ocean (salt) which leaves you to your bathtub 😉 Splish Splash with rubber duckie!
