Not to say that it would be bad necessarily, but that is more for fighting infection. For the aftercare treatment of a tattoo, most people use Tattoo Goo, that or A&D Ointment. There are some who do not recommend the latter of the two since it is used primarily for diaper rash, but a lot of people use it for this, and most artists use same during tattoos. A lot of people go the quickest route, and simply use petrolleum jelly, but once again there are a lot of people who don't advise to just as many people who do. Look around. There are great products out there, and more numerous than the ones that I just listed.
If you pick at the scab before the tattoo heals, then there will be damage to the tattoo. I had to get my first tattoo touched up because of this
No I do not believe there is any food that will halt the healing of a tattoo. A tattoo healing is not really different from any other cut scratch healing . As in any healing there are thing that will help the process such as vitamins ointments and general care but no food that will halt the healing.
Answer: Most likely it will make it fade. and its prob not good for the tattoo healing proccess either.
Can i use jergens on a new tattoo
It is normal for a tattoo to peel. It is part of it's healing process. Some may peel, some may scab, and some will do both, but it is completely normal.
i just got a tattoo a day ago and i was told to use Aquaphor on my tattoo while it was healing and it seems to be doing the trick but you will notice a little bit of ink coming out of your tattoo but i hear that this is normal.
It takes about 10 days for a tattoo to heal completely. In the healing process a scab forms over the tattoo and if any of the scab is rubbed or knocked off you loose part of the tattoo. If you a slow healing I would suggest not getting one. You may have a underlying condition that is causing this to happen. Talking to your doctor could give you more information.
Yes but a&d ointment works better in early healing.
You may want to stay away from getting eczema tattood. If you have a break out while the tattoo is healing you could damage the tattoo and or cause an infection.
Not if the tattoo is healing normally e.g. no pus, oozing, or broken skin. If your tattoo IS looking sore, don't risk it until it has completely healed.

Not at all. You want to wait about a good month after getting a tattoo before you go out in the sun to tan. Having a healing tattoo is a vulnerability out in the sun and it will do nothing but delay the healing time most likely. There is little chance of actual harm being done to your skin and body if you are not bathing in it for hours, but you should still avoid direct sunlight throughout the healing time. Also, once healed, excessive tanning will break down your tattoo and make the colors less vibrant over time as well.
It's not really matter fot tattoo healing process, eat as usual (and preferably healthy)
