  1. Hey people 
     I have been doing a lot of researching on tattoos but there are still a few things that I want to know ?
    If anyone could help me out that would be great  (please no trolls)

    ? How do you care for your tattoo?
    ? Does ALL tattoos scab up?
    ? what areas of your body hurt the least to get tattooed?

    ? Those are just a few of my main questions

     any more information would be very helpful! Please post anything below. ? thanks so much!
     
  2. Wash with Luke warm water and a plain antibacterial soup. Then lightly coat with A
     
  3. I use a very light coating of a
     
  4. Stupid post, light coat of A
     
  5. Stupid post guess will try one more time than pm me if not , light coat of A
     
  6. What the hell....I swear I wrote it out
     
  7. 
     
  8. I saw this one picture on the interwebs about which area that you should avoid getting a tattoo because of the pain.

    The funniest part about it was the nipples. Can't get a tattoo there.
     
  9. Don't use ampersand
     
  10. non scented fragrance free lubriderm after. Scabbing depends on artist and how good he is and your care. As for pain the arm back shoulders finger been least. Armpit, chest, elbow, bend in middle of arm and veiny portion towards palm were the worst. 
     
  11. OMG forget it...some ointment from the store using the letter a and then the letter D

    My last attempt
     
  12. Any tattoos lying on your bone hurt. (In the middle of your back, on your ribs, collar bone, etc)
     
  13. "A and E"
    Helps take care of tattoos. But the word and is an ampersand on the little tube.
     
  14. A and D ointment ️ back can be the worst along with ribs and places without fatty tissue , you should have minimal scabbing more like a light sun burn peel . Pain tolerance depends on you some people find it to be more of annoyance , the worst pain is usually the shading where they go over the same area a lot . Do remember it's permeant so check for errors in words or placement is proper . Good luck . Just remember if your paying to little for the tat check his/ her scrap book you don't want a hack job.
     
  15. A and the letter after C but only first 24-72 hours depending on artist advice. Will cause unwanted Scabbing after and risk color fading
     
  16. Thank you all  I was planning on getting it on my calf.
    Is this an area that won't hurt as bad? I would say my leg is bone small, but getting a tattoo over the muscle??
    Will that be too painful?
     
  17. Just underneath your rib cage or on your rib cage both really hurt, as does the inside of elbows and wrists
