Helloe everyone. Im new to getting tattoos. I just got my second one and its a big forearm piece. I have to do another sitting. I was wondering if my tattoo artist is being heavy handed. My tattoo is still raised and shiny 2 months later. This is it fresh. image-1f22b63b1a32b71289dcdd5c7a510ba0cd5a388cfb3d163c3cca96d34ed1d912-V.jpg Photo by kbarredo | Photobucket

He could be but what does that matter? Tattoos can take up to 6 months or longer to heal.

heavy handed just means it hurts more,

and your tattoos look like they are healing perfectly normal,the shiny slightly textured look is common and normal,like buttwheat said,give it a few more months to finish healing.

Welcome to the forum!

Relax. Give it time to heal.
