first week or should using a&d ointment few times day, along washing tattoo twice day gentle anti-bacterial soap. should let tattoo dry out half hour before applying ointment. also, apply thin layer of ointment. purpose of ointment prevent infection.

once notice tattoo appears peeling (much sunburn) should begin apply unscented lotion. prefer lubriderm, apply. should apply several times day prevent tattoo overly drying. flaking , peeling normal. tattoos heal sun burn.

after week of peeling, week 3 or of healing process, should continue apply lotion atleast twice day week or 2 until tattoo begins , feel rest of untattooed skin. after should apply lotion ideally few times week. it's , how tattoo looking , feeling.

heals different, these suggestions. best solution listening body. if tattoo feels dry, itchy, or tight should apply lotion.

also, should ideally apply sort of sunblock tattoo if planning extended time periods of sun exposure. until tattoo atleast 1 month old should keep sun exposure minimum. not unhealthy tattoo, can uncomfortable you. after that, if color, should apply form of sun block. use spf 30 anytime going spend more half hour of continual sun exposure (farmer's market, flea market, walking dogs, camping, amusement park, etc).
