Do not apply alcohol to a new tattoo. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER! Clean the tattoo with a mild anti-bacterial soap and pat (not rub)dry with a clean, lint free towel or T-shirt. The T-shirt I suggest because the cloth is a lot softer than a towel and anyone with a new tattoo KNOWS that the skin is sensitive for a bit. Most tattoo shops, and I speak from experience, sell a product known as Tattoo Goo or something similar. I highly suggest it! Once you have cleaned your tattoo, apply some of the Tattoo Goo to your tattoo. It keeps the skin lubricated, helps with the healing process, and relieves some of the itching. (Don't scratch!!) Apply a couple of times a day. ---- You can also get stuff from the store called Aquaphore, its with the lotions and stuff, but it works well, ive used it on my two tattoos and many of my friends use it on theres

Is coconut oil good for tattoo after care?

No. you want to make sure your scabs on your new tattoo are left alone. I had a new tattoo when I went to a wedding so many people hugged me that the scab was knocked off on one section of my tattoo and when that happens you loose the part of the tattoo that had the scab come off. I also suggest you follow the advice of the person doing your tattoo.


Is it possible to cover up tattoo with a new tattoo?

It is indeed possible to cover up a tattoo, but any tattoo that you will get will have to be significantly darker than the one that you have now to effectively cover it. Consult with your local tattoo artist, see if they are good at cover ups (not all artists are), and he or she will design something for you that will cover it and will be complimentary as well.
