Is it safe to apply sunblock to a week old tattoo that’s almost done peeling? I found a Neutrogena sunblock for babies I thought old be safe.

I have been working out several times since I got it and it’s fine. Artist told me that my own sweat is fine for it. So many different opinions. Which there was a sold rule book

Thats what I was thinking but They said that a LOOSE soft (cotton) shirt should be ok. Seems like no decesion is the right one. 🙁

It’s only a 5k. I’ll be done in like 30 minutes. I think I am going to just wrap a loose t-shirt sleeve around it and rinse it off after.

I was told that using Saran Wrap will trap in bacteria. I talked to another tattoo shop last night and they also advised against it. Said that Saran Wrap is old school and no longer a good idea. 🙁

They specifically said o cloth materials/gauze because the powder will get wet (from my sweat) and soak through the material and then touch my ink.
