no because it can irrate the skin and plus it would hurt your sunburn it wouldn't heal properly

Well, the sunburn has already irritated the skin but the peeling is what would hurt your new tattoo.....When a tattoo heals the top layer of skin comes off in a light scab...The DERMIS builds a new epidermis over the tattoo...If your sunburn peels before the dermis is ready it may lose much of it's ink, as well as taking a long time to heal...And, the pain factor would highly increase being tattooed over a sunburn..Hope this helps........B

It is not recommended and typically frowned upon. My artist yells at me all the time not to go in the sun with tattoos period, but especially when they are new. It can make them take longer to heal and to fade and just generally look bad after they do heal. I wouldn't do it.

Its not recommended as the sun tends to ruin new tattoos and makes them fade fast, however i suppose if you cannot avoid the beach then using factor 50+ on the tattooed area and applying as often as possible would minimise the risk to your tattoo.

Yes, the sun will do nothing but bad for your tattoo. It will make it fade much faster than it would normally, especially if the piece is black and grey…not to mention that a fresh tattoo is an open wound, thereby making you just a tad bit more susceptible to a nasty skin irritation due to the rays.

suntanning with a new tattoo is a terrible idea. the more you tan with a tattoo the more the colors disappear. if the tattoo is just black it wont make much of a difference.

IT USUALLY TAKES ABOUT 2 WEEKS FOR AT TATTOO TO HEAL, I THINK YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL ALL THE SCABS ARE GONE AND TALK TO WHOEVER DID YOUR TATTOO BEFORE YOU PUT ANY SUNBLOCK ON

I don't think necessarily it is the sunscreen as much as the sun. The sun can make your tattoo irritated and peel.

Is it kojic soap damage the tattoo?

Some Kojic soaps will not damage your tattoo not unless the formula is too strong or has a such high concentration that may damage the PH of your skin or your tattoo for that matter! If it's a fresh tattoo, I suggest that you use the Kojic soap that I recommend to all my tattoo artists! This soap would aid in faster peeling & faster healing!
