I’ve got skin ‘issues’ too so I’ve gotta be careful, that’s why I check EVERYTHING out before I buy it. Not only that but I don’t do cheap when it comes to my inkwork, so why the hell would I want to risk using something on it that’s gonna doom it to fade out, just to “go with the flow” cuz…[Read more]

NO ANTIBIOTIC OINTMENT unless you actually have an infection. There’s a tattoo shop owner on another forum that said he “will not be held responsible if they don’t follow THEIR aftercare instructions” which include using Bepanthan (petroleum and paraffin wax – NOT good). Sorta hit me wrong because while I understand how important…[Read more]

So is bepanthen. Although antibiotics are good, you can keep the wound clean at all times to help avoid infection & not use the petroleum products. Savlon and bepanthen also both contain paraffin (a wax used to make cheap candles) and it’s known to clog pores which can be…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum and what is your idea for the new ink?

Well, lets see. I have a real hard time explaining my idea for the next ink I want (guess that’s why I dont have it yet lol) but I’ll try. Guess you could call it party tribal-ish and party ‘gang’ looking in a very odd way. I’m in no…[Read more]

It’s good sh*t. I’d been using bepanthen at first (2 days) and while that did ok, the itching was fierce. On day 3 my hemp stick came in the mail & that stuff felt good the second I put it on. Lasts forever too. There’s enough in the stick to get ya through 50…[Read more]
