    Stop putting anything on it.. It looks as if moister is getting trapped in it. If it were me I would only wash it and not use any cream or lotion.

    I washed it today a good wash. Put abit of cream on it. That wasnt how looked last night though. The cream they gave me is really think where the other stuff is thin. The 1st wash was still slimy after washing with soap and rinsing. ended up patting it dry and the towel picked up all the slimy stuff. Was only that charter that done it

    I’m am a total believer in the “dry wrap” method. When tattoo is done it is wrapped with plastic wrap. Every four hours or so the plastic is removed, tattoo is washed with mild soap (liquid is best) and fresh wrap is applied. After about three days wrap method is done and just use a non scented moisturized such as Aveena, Cetaphil, or Lubriderm. If I have some scabbing, I massage tea tree oil on the area.

    Good luck, keep s posted!

    Stay away from petroleum based ointments. Try to find an organic lubricant for the tattoo application. (then dry wrap)

    It look’s fine, cream can stick to scabbing no matter how many times you wash it let it dry heal for a few days

    So let me be sure that I understand correctly: You had a question about how your tattoo was healing and so you contacted the artist who did it? LIKE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO??

    Wow. A person with common sense. I thought that was an endangered species, based on the number of numbskulls I have seen in the last few years. Now I have hope again.

    But seriously, I am glad that it is all healing up nicely for you.
