hey is petroleum jelly alright to apply on the tattoo? we dont get the tattoo goo and stuff here in my country
I think is ok,i used on my clients (ja) i am 14 years old tattoo artist i will be posting some videos on youtube!!
I’ve been told that vasaline saps your color. I used a hand lotion (Aveeno)…
it’s true. Vasoline ate the color out of my tattoo… it was a black and grey tattoo when I 1st got it done, but Vasoline turned it into a blue tattoo..
=/
I’ve been getting inked now for 8 years and the first thing i was told at 18 was “never, ever use vasaline on your tattoo”. I didn’t follow that advice 2 years ago on my sleeve and my bright colors turned dull. Looked like I’ve had it for 20 years without a touch up. I spent more money a year later getting it re-touched. Don’t use vaseline aka petroleum jelly you will regret it.
yah vasaline is very old school do NOT use… use a@d for the first 2-3 day then sent free lanolin free lubriderm lotion u tattoo will heal the right way
yup yup jus got one done and im usin that a@d
yah but “vasaline” would be sick on
Old sKOOL Saylor jerry tattoos.
its not Vaseline based its petroleum based. a&d had petroleum also only its just 25% thats why its better for the first 2 days
AQUAPHOR is the best. Heals tatts up in less then 2 weeks.
yeah when i first got my tat it got all meesed up because i used petroleum jelly i regerat it because when i first got it . it was all black and grey and now it looks like a blue faded color
whats the wrape for y do i have to wrap it like that
@fadyallday
normally they put wrap only when you leave the tattoo shop , you wait like 1 to 2 hours before you wash it , After you wash it , you don’t have to put a wrap anymore , just put vaseline (with no alcohol in it) for 2 weeks , and you’ll be fine
i dont see any tattoos on this guy so what the fuck would he know
Never put anything that’s oil based on your healing tattoo. As well, never put saran wrap over a new tattoo.
I recommend three things: Aquaphor, fragrance-free liquid soap, and Curel Fragrence-free lotion.
@btchplzholla well just using common logic on this, most doctors will never get, certain life threatening diseases, yet they can cure them…or tell you how to cure them.
case in point, just because you dont engage in something doesnt mean you cant learn something.
theres a reason bill gates was a school dropout, but is one if not the richest guy around. go figure. another guy who didnt engage in higher education, but makes the most money cause he learned how to.
just sayin….

Only an idiot would use a lufa on a fresh new tattoo, you will force up a scab. Luke warm water, anti bacterial soap and your clean hands are best
would baby wipes be a bad idea to use to clean up run off ink?
Honestly theres a million different ways to care for a tattoo. And they all work. My advice, just use regular old soap whether it be fragrance or none fragrance (ive never had a problem with it burning) and just regular lotion. the problem ive had with oil and creme based ointments, they pretty much just sit on top of your tattoo and makes a mess with clothes.
