When I got my first and so-far only tattoo, I ended up with a large full-color saturated piece on my thigh. The artist gave me saniderm to heal it. Just like you said, it filled up with goo and the seal broke. By a string of what I thought was "bad" luck I ended up removing it and healing without. Watching this made me realize it was probably for the best. The tattoo healed no problem after that. I've got an appointment for my next tattoo in December scheduled, and I can't wait. Thanks for explaining all this, Remy! :)
I was literally just thinking about your perspective on healing techniques and how the shop recommends after care. My wife and I are both getting new tattoos tomorrow. Great video as always!
Hey Remi is there any chance you could do like a Day in the life of segment. Like a VLOG on your day leading into a tattoo session or even a walk through of the place you manage. No pressure just be interesting to see behind the scenes. Keep up the Awesome work my guy straight Fire content
derms should be applied for the first 24 hours, then changed and the second sheet left on for 3-5 days. you shouldn't leave one sheet of derm on for the full healing duration. i've healed many full colour pieces without any issue doing exactly this
Directions for use: * The first piece of Saniderm should stay on 8-24 hours, depending on how much the area weeps. It is normal for blood and fluids to collect under the bandage. * A second bandage can be worn for several days. Apply a third piece if needed. Do not wear any piece for longer than 7 days.
Remy, great video as always. I feel bad for the last guy. He got messed up pretty good. Have you ever thought of publishing a book of your philosophy and overall view of tattooing? And the tattoo community in general? I know you speak about it the videos, but I think maybe writing a book would be a better medium to get the philosophy you have on tattooing to the masses. Hope this finds you and your loved ones in good health and spirits.
At least these infections aren’t so yucky like we’ve seen, definitely find good artists that aren’t so heavy handed they’ll hammer it into your skin and will give you a much better tattoo
I'm dealing with a tattoo infection and I know exactly what happened. When I got home from getting the tattoo I took off the saniderm and did my usual rinse, pat dry and replaced it with two pieces of tegaderm. In the middle of the night those two pieces had drifted away from each other and it was exposed tattoo against my sheets. So I took them off rinsed again, patted it dry and then decided to let it dry heal. Within 2 days I had the thickest crust on the tattoo I've ever seen. I'm on antibiotics and I've let the artist know. This is only the second time I've had an infection from a tattoo. The first time was just the artist chewing up my arm. I had an entire tattoo of a blister. It was gross but I didn't need antibiotics.
A month or so ago I left a comment on a diff infection vid. But regardless I was passed your knowledge onto a girl that was 1 week deep still wrapped and open/split scabs but without the rough scab part. and the following week I ran into her she was almost fully healed. Scared but healed.
Whenever I get my second pass at a blackout arm SHOULD I put saniderm on? I hear it's like 50/50. I just did the dry method it didn't scab up like yea it peeled a bit but no scabs... And that is working very well that's what I did on all my previous tattoos... Butt should I use saniderm on my second pass?
I wouldn’t recommend saniderm for blackout, too much plasma for great results most times, I’m not saying it can’t work, but in my experience it’s not the best for it
@@EphemeralRemy alright thanks buddy I just let my arm dry out with my first pass as I do all all my other tattoos, alright thanks I honestly didn't know because all my other ones.
The current chest piece ate the shit outta the former .. it went predator and aracnid ... salivia all rancid..etc.... evolution . .. just saying. no surprises .lol..
New Remy vid, sounds like it's gonna be a good lunch break
Haha hope you enjoy
“Looks like they went in and asked for a sleeve of background”, I’m sorry but that just got me laughing 😂

At some point I will write a book about my “journey” as well as all I’ve learned and my overall philosophy, but I’m not quite there yet. Cheers
man. that last guy. something tells me he didn't research the shop or the artist. it was probably a walk-in/"yeah i got you bro" situation.
At least these infections aren’t so yucky like we’ve seen, definitely find good artists that aren’t so heavy handed they’ll hammer it into your skin and will give you a much better tattoo
Yup
I always take my first saniderm off after 24hrs. Clean thoroughly and put on a new saniderm. That’s with full color. It’s worked for me every time
To be honest I’m usually half way healed by that time haha
Same here
@@EphemeralRemy I wish I healed that quick
Haha I guess I was born for this
Men where was this video when I got my leg sleeve I wonder why I was having bad breaks out and crap. I kept it wraps and I guess sweat and others.
Question, when you say if they’ve taken antibiotics do you mean the topical cream or the pills?
When it gets bad enough antibiotics are needed

I see Remy posts I click it.🤷🏽
Haha thanks buddy
Getting more of my arm blacked out next week, wish me luck 😂
Enjoy!
Not a fan of that second skin stuff nor would I ever leave it on 4, 5 days I personally think that's a bad idea, tattoos need air to heal
Let’s go!

Sorry to hear about your friend, but I’m glad to hear she’s on the mend
What do you think about UV ink?? Do you think artists should disclose when they are using it on their client?
They definitely should, especially being that it’s incredibly uncommon anyway, that being said I have no hard thoughts on it
Sanaderm is for tiktok, like wiping the foam off to reveal the tattoo
learn sooo much from you
👍🏻
Can you do me a favor and test derm shield vs saniderm vs the new mad rabbit healing patches
I don’t like derm shield at all, so saniderm over derm shield, no idea about mad rabbit though
@@EphemeralRemy saniderm is more stiff than derm shield and not as flexible by comparison imo

Was the ink old and sitting for long maybe... Dirty
The current chest piece ate the shit outta the former .. it went predator and aracnid ...
salivia all rancid..etc....
evolution .
..
just saying.
no surprises .lol..
😂
Sanaderm is useless
I use clingfilm all the time.
