Tattoo Aftercare and Healing

The newest installment for the Tattoo Corner deals with tattoo aftercare and healing. If you ever want to refer to it in the future or might like to send it to a friend who is looking into getting inked, you can always find this and many other tattoo-related topics here.

Before you read this entry, let me emphasize that it is ALWAYS BEST to follow the aftercare instructions of your tattoo artist. Each artist has their own style and knows the background and unique characteristics of each tattoo piece. There may be special circumstances when it comes to your skin, their ink, their machine, the area the tattoo was placed on, and the list goes on & on... so please note that their advice & method should always be taken seriously and adhered to. I am merely writing about my own aftercare regimen because it has been requested of me so frequently and I wanted to get it written out to answer the questions of the fantastic readers who have asked me about it.

It took many years to find the method that works perfectly for my skin and my body. I know that everyone is different and this might not work at all for you. It might also be totally different than your artist recommends. I am in NO way implying that my method is the best regimen ... it is simply the way that works best for me and that I am happiest with.
