Once you've gotten a permanent tattoo, the hardest part is over-- but your work isn't done. Pay careful attention to these instructions for the proper aftercare for your new tattoo and you'll help protect the newly acquired tattoo's color and shape. Take care of your new tattoo the same way you would care for any other skin wound.

Yes, if there are spots missing ink, it's normal but you should be able to go back to the tattoo studio and get a free touch up... they told me when I got mine that after it healed, if there were empty spots, he would give me a free retouch.

on 8/19/2008 You shouldn't use an antibiotic unless you have an infection, instead used a skin protectant like A&D Ointment or Eucerin's Aquaphor Healing Ointment.

on 10/5/2007 Ive been using alot of the stuff that it tells me not to and its comin out pretty bad. I didnt realize i shudnt re bandage it, didnt kno not to use neosporin (which many people have said TO use and NOT TO use. I was confused) and i applyed way too much of it. DONT DO THAT it comes off on my clothes sooo easily.
