- So you just got a new tattoo, NOW WHAT?! Many artists use to recommend Aquaphor, but what if it wasn't as good for as other products are?
I used to use it too, but not anymore. There are some GREAT products on the market that are all-natural and better for your body.

Honestly I have a sleeve on my left arm. I’ve used coconut oil on every bit of my sleeve the entire healing process from hours after getting the tattoo to using it through the peeling process.
The moisturizing+ vitamins in coconut oil makes it perfect for using coconut oil instead of aquaphor.
Coconut oil helps keep the tattooed area moisturize and cause of that during your peeling process that itch will be decreased to almost zero.
I bought some Lubriderm for my first tattoo, seeing it used and recommended by many youtubers who also recommend Aquaphor (not easily available in the UK). And I used it in the week leading up to my appointment. However, once my tattoo was done, the advice given to my by my artist included the instruction to avoid using petroleum based products, as they can affect the colours, which it turns out included Lubriderm as well as the Bepanthen ointment (closest thing to Aquaphor I could find here) I had ready for once it was time to take the dermalize off. Fortunately, I had enough time to find and buy another non-petroleum based ointment - I went for After Inked instead, and my tattoos (I got two done at once) have both healed very well, and my artist says I'm just a few days away from being able to use sun cream and rely on that instead of clothing to protect them from the sun. She did say however not to go back to the lubriderm even at this stage though, and that coconut oil will be fine for continued moisturising once my After Inked has run out. I don't know why my artist (and the shop) disagrees with everyone else. It might be because of the type of inks used, or the tatoo technique, or the dermalize film (even on that, I was told to keep it on for 3 days, instead of 24 hours or 7 days which were the recommendations I see elsewhere), or any number of things I might not have considered. But I can say that following my artist's instructions gave me good results, and since everyone online, whatever they recommend, agrees that you should always follow your own artist's instructions, that should not come as a surprise. I'm sure I'll get plenty of use out of the Lubriderm for non-tattooed parts of my body in future anyway.
I’m glad it all worked out! Definitely listen to your artist, it’s THEIR work!
I use both. I use Aquaphor Spray when I am on the go, because Aquaphor Spray is the most convenient and most sanitary way that I came across so far.
But other than that, I aim to use natural tattoo balms like Dr.Bronner’s Unscented Balm, Badger Tattoo Balm and Coconut oil.
My tattoo artist recommended aquaphor, although his work is really amazing I did notice that most people's healed tattoo pictures from that place, look more faded than I'd expect from a 1 month old tattoo. This is my first tattoo, ever. I just now today starting using aquaphor but after doing my research, now I'm uncertain about still using it. I fear getting an allergic reaction to a different healing cream, but if it's all natural, I should give it a shot.
use lubriderm
All natural would help and decrease risk of allergic reaction. I recommend Palmers “Heals & Softens” Cocoa Butter to ALL my clients.
@@randomherotattoo how about aloe Vera?
I mean, I guess you could. I haven’t used it personally or known anyone to use it for healing, but theoretically it should work. When changing the tattoo aftercare routine outside of the norms I would recommend consulting your artist as this is normally how they guarantee their work (this is out of the aftercare norms).
@@randomherotattoo alright thanks
Is gold bond lotion fragrance free good for tattoo after care?
What do you think of centaphil?
This was really helpful thanks!
No problem! Glad I could help.
Most doctors recommend it for healing skin. Lanilol is sheep fat not skin, also recommended for breast feeding mothers nipples it’s super safe and used for centuries.
I don’t like or recommend Lanolin because a lot of people can be allergic to it. If you break out and get rashes from wearing a wool sweater, this could be you. It’s also been known to clog pores and can pull out color of your tattoos.
Also, because of how sheep are raised, it COULD contain pesticide residue.
Just some of my opinions and research I have done in the past.
I have been using ONLY Curel unscented lotion to heal my tattoos for over 20 years now. And even my very first tattoo looks awesome and dark even after 20 plus years!
I was used aquaphor and my tattoo was hyperhydrated and then need retouched in this moment i just wash and the five day use baby cream without alcohol or vaseline
For wash i use ozone soap and water
Anti bacterial soap (fragrance free) and a lotion like Cocoa Butter is my recommendation. I’m not sure what baby cream is or what ozone soap is.
Is tattoo goo , recommendable ?
What's your opinion on Hustle Butter for using it the entire time of the healing process?
I LOVE hustle butter! Some think, and I agree, it can be a little oily. Just like with any other balm, use a thin layer. I think when we put on THICK layers is when we see the majority of that oily-ness.
I love hussle butter too but my artist is begging me to use aquaphor so I’m checking reviews
Obviously, I’m not a fan of aquaphor. But do what’s comfortable for you.
@@evergreenflex6661 did your artist say why use aquaphor over hustle butter?
@@patrick_harder he just thinks it’s heals his tattoos and his customers tattoos so much better but he doesn’t really bitch over hustle butter it’s when you tell him you using shit like A&D ointment on the tattoos he
I use lubriderm after peeling
Curel ?
I was open to hearing how you feel but the scented lotion threw me off. I thought your supposed to use un scented ?
I don’t use scented lotion. If you are referring to the cocoa butter, it is NATURALLY scented. Meaning there are no chemical additives to add in the scent. I should have clarified because that does cause some confusion.
@@randomherotattoo oh okay! Didn’t think of it like that thank u
You’re not supposed to use scented anything After tattoo care, even soap, you’re supposed to use antibacterial 🧼, it’s recommended with the tattoo artist 💯👌🏾
@@Hegottalent_ spot on👍🏻
Tattoo Goo is the best. No petroleum or lanolin. It’s all natural.
Interesting
Whenever I get a tattoo I just use whatever the artist sells, probably overpriced but I'd hope a good artist you've spend $$$ on hours of work wouldn't sell you something crap.
On my most recent one they sold a small tub of cocoa butter, it worked really well but it ran out quickly. I saw aquafor was seemingly well reviewed online so I picked it up and pretty immediately had issues with it. 3 weeks after getting the tattoo, I used aquafor for 2 days and it made my tattoo raised and bumpy and seems to have suffocated/over moisturised the tattoo. Won't be using it again, wish I never did, back to cocoa butter for me
U have a really hard time looking at the camera
I use hustle butter
Kinda cringy
Thanks!
Imagine type this, it’s makes you even more lame
