This is what I found works best for me and it was recommended by a tattoo artist and it kind of makes sense. The first 3 days dry heal the tatto make sure that you wash it regularly and if needed use a wrap just don't leave it on for to long. After that start using an ointment as the tattoo is basically already peeling its going to heal a lot faster than the traditional method and you won't be as itchy as dry healing it but at the end of the day do whatever works for you and what your tattoo artist recommends
Great advice! My reserve for covering a healing tattoo with a wrap is that you are depriving your tattoo of oxygen and using a wrap for the healing process doesn’t really have an added benefit. Also, be careful to what ointments you are using as you can over heal your tattoo which can cause scarring or your body to push some of the ink out. Thanks for the comment!!
getting my first tomorrow, really excited!!!
Awesome!! Good luck.
I know some artists do prefer dry healing, however biologically speaking, for skin to heal in wet (moist) conditions are way better, because in that "wet" condition, the cells migrate faster and spawn way faster, witch leads to less scaring, better skin condition, faster wound healing. The cells create skin way faster. Scabs are not safe results for our skin. Yes, they do form, but after the scabs, you can get a skin/tissue scaring, the wound will heal slower and can cause parmanent damage. I was consulting to medical specialists and they do that in medical healings - use the moist healing.
Thanks so much for that info!! That’s really helpful.
I got a tattoo in the PH(tropical climate) and I noticed that my tattoo never scabbed and was never that dry. When I got a tattoo in America my tattoos would always have these big scabs. Now reading this comment, it makes a lot of sense why my tattoo here in the PH didn’t scab. It’s because its always moist because of the humidity.
That’s interesting.
@@andrelawas186 I got mine in Thailand and its dry and scabby
I like ‘em moist
This was so helpful! Thankyou so much keep uploading! Love your channel! Also I had no idea there were multiple types of healing I have been wet healing all along and never knew and today I am getting my 3rd tattoo!
Thanks so much!! I’m glad I could help. I’d LOVE to see your new tattoo!
@@randomherotattoo Thankyou so very much what is your instagram I will happily send u a pic I am currently wet healing my newest tattoo
@iamcodypratt
AWESOME VIDEO! Very helpful and useful information.
Thanks! Glad I could help.
Thanks for the info. I’m sticking with Saniderm. It works amazing for me.
🙌🏻🙌🏻🔥🔥
Thanks for the details, I feel like about to make a decision after this video
Happy to help. Let me know if you have any questions.
My tattoo artist for my new (yesterday) tattoo on my shoulder I believe let me do the wet method. But I only need to rap it for 3 nights. My left shoulder from about 5 years ago is I think the dry method lol didn't even know the method was different the way it is so thnx for the explanation :)
I just got my tattoo 1 week ago. My healing aftercare is somewhere between the dry and wet aftercare, where I wash my tattoo with an unscented antibacterial soap and letting it dry using paper towel or air drying. Then I apply moisturizer on my tattoo to keep it slightly fresh and moist. Then I let it be for the whole day to dry until I go to bed and repeat the process.
That’s just normal healing…but you shouldn’t over-apply the lotion. Just a thin layer will suffice
Used to dry heal. Body hated it and I scabbed up real bad and effected finished look but couldn't used any creams etc as my skins pretty sensitive. Last few years been on the second skin method and heals perfect every time.
That’s awesome about the second skin!
Thanks bro
Glad I could help!
I think dry healing is safer. I don't add lotion or ointment till it starts to peel
To each their own I guess…
I do dry healing if you can muscle through the itchiness you can do anything
Haha, that sounds SUPER uncomfortable!
why do people wrap their tattoo after applying ointments?
trying saniderm for the first time. have always either applied too much or too little lotion lol
I used Saniderm for my first tattoo and I loved it. No mess on the sheets. I could wear whatever I wanted to with no mess or worry. When it came time to remove the Saniderm I had very little skin flaking. The tattoo heal beautifully. Best way to go imho.
I used that but there’s scabbing in it nd the tattoo looks messy . Is this normal?
That tattoo looks messy under the Saniderm? Or after you take it off?
@@randomherotattoo under the saniderm
@@randomherotattoo can i share the picture with u?
Oh your tattoo is fine! That is completely normal. It’s just excess blood, plasma, and ink. I have a few videos about Saniderm that you should take a look at. Those might help explain what is going on. Hope this helps.
Omg your intro 🥰
Have you ever heard of dry healing new piercings ?
Crazy that u posted this right in time lol
lol...perfect timing!!
I got a new arm tatoo kind of medium size and he has told me not to let water come on it. It means not to even let pure water pour on it once a day. He told me to follow this for a week. Post that he would suggest some ointment .I am confused and scared if I should go for this super dry healing process. Is it cool ?
I don’t know why he would suggest that…in another video I have just about dry healing, I go more into it. But I wouldn’t recommend it. I recommend to my clients to just wash it, gently, 2-3 times a day with anti-bacterial soap and then pat dry with a paper towel. Then apply a thin layer of lotion. I prefer Palmer’s “heal & softens” Cocoa Butter
Serious question i live in florida is dry healling even positive
Absolutely, that’s where I started tattooing. But dry healing and wet healing shouldn’t be your go to options. They should only be done if you can do it any other way.
Can I use tea tree oil
You can, but I wouldn’t use it as my primary aftercare moisturizer. What I would do is use a Tea Tree Oil engined antibacterial soap. That way you still get all the great positive effects of the tea tree oil. This is just what I would do personally.
If you wanted to use it as part of your primary aftercare routine, make sure you use a carrier oil and not directly on the skin
I got a new tattoo last week and have been moisturising it and it’s been 7 days now and I haven’t seen any sign of peeling should I stop moisturising and let it dry out for a few days or continue moisturising?
How big is the tattoo and have you been putting lotion on it more than once a day?
You can DM me on Instagram and I’d be more than happy to help.
@@randomherotattoo it’s on the forearm I will send a vid of it on Instagram to you and I have been using the lotion on it 2-3 times a day like my artist said to do
There is one spot in my tattoo still a bit red and the rest is normal shoul i be worried iive had it three days ago ?
Igot it on my knee 😬
No need to be worried. It’s still pretty fresh. Give it a couple more days, if it is still red then let your artist know. Just make sure you take care of it, follow the aftercare instructions your artist gave you.
@@randomherotattoo thank u sm for the quick reply. ❤️
A few hours after removing the tatu-derm on day 5, a few pimples appeared on my tattoo. do you think i should be scared?
No, just keep a close eye on it. Make sure to wash your tattoo and apply fragrance-free lotion. Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.
@@randomherotattoo My tattoo, which I had retouched 7 days ago, is extremely itchy, will it damage my tattoo if I use antihistamine pills? Sorry, my english is very bad.
I hate dry healing. It shouldn’t even be a thing 😂.. the scabbing up part is the worse, i rather just skip that phase and go straight to the exfoliating of the ink phase. I have 3 big pieces. Two half a sleeves and 1 on my shin the covers most of it, and one of my half sleeves were Dry healed, the other two are wet healed. I HATED dry healing, I tried it just because my tattoo artist said that’s how she preferred her art but it was up to me, nd i tried the dry healing and instantly regretted it. As long as you continue to wash your tattoo and dont do any heavy sweating and cover your tattoo with loose clothing I think wet healing is much better. I live in the desert so i wet heal differently 😅. One coat of lotion would just dry up in 2 hrs so instead I continue to wash, dry, and aquaphor throughout the day
If it works for you, then do it. But that’s not wet healing and there is such thing as “over-healing”. Just be careful when healing your tattoo like that. Just because your tattoo isn’t “wet” doesn’t mean the lotion isn’t moisturizing your tattoo.
Fingers need wet healing. My finger tattoos peel so bad and lose ink when they are dry. 😢
To be fair, that is just finger and hand tattoo in general
@Cody Pratt so true my hands peeled a ton regardless of how much i moisturized. Alot of people think peeling makes ur tatts lose ink. It does, but only to tattoos which the ink wasn't applied correctly and deep enough.
Hello sir I'm Sri Lanka.. my tattoo finish already healing.. but still have bumps in my tattoo? This normal or I need to take medicine? Please 🙏
It’s hard to say without seeing the tattoo, but sometimes the tattoo takes a little longer than 2-3 weeks to heal. Hope this helps.
Please I need your advice sir
I hate that tattoos doesn’t look like they did day 1 I like when is heavy black not when it gets grey
Haha I know what you mean. BUT, that’s also why it is very important to take care of your tattoos even when the healing process is done. There are plenty of tattoo balms out there that can do that.
@@randomherotattoo man i love my tattoo sooo bad that im willing to get a touch-up every year for it, i had no problem with dry healing on my first tattoo but my second tattoo was very expensive and it's a realistic portret that's why i don't want to ruin it so im doing the wet healing for it, thanks for your help man i appreciate it ❤️
No problem! Glad I could help.
Hello, nice video.
I thought "Dry healing" was very bad when it comes to healing, as in it not healing well, or the design of the tattoo dissapearing or becoming blurry?
Im making a maori bodysuit, and I honestly find tiring the whole body lotion applycation lately, yet I dont want the design to become blurry or bad.
But apparently in your video you say it doesnt damage the tattoo itself, so I may consider it.
Dry healing is totally healthy and natural. You should still wash it with soap and water and keep it clean, but you don’t have to put lotion on it.
Think about when you get a scrape or a cut. You don’t put anything on it. You just make sure the wound stays clean and it heals on its own. This is the same concept. Hope this helped. And I would LOVE to see your bodysuit when it’s finished!
I’ve dry healed nearly every single tattoo and not had a single problem plus the tattoos look so fresh and new compared to the few I wet healed. Our bodies are equipped to recover naturally after all.
natural coconut oil is the best..
Coconut oil is great and a lot of products use it for “Tattoo Aftercare”.
However, with pure coconut oil, it’s easy to overuse and suffocate your new tattoo. This is important for the first 4-5 days. I would recommend to switch to coconut oil after the first week.
No bro , you got it wrong , dry healing before removing scab is the best , when you moisturize before the tatt became dry up , it melt the ink , and let it pop out ,when you do a new tattoo , the first day of your session , apply after care , after that leave it dry up , when it dry up , and want to start cracking , that was when you'll need it to be moitorize ! When removing scab , keep on applying your oitment till when your skin heal , I did a full arm sleeve to myself and observe this , since then , I saw the big secret about tattoo healing , try this and thank me later.
How did people in the ancient times heal their tattoos when ointments weren’t invented yet
They probably used herbs and salves.
@@randomherotattoo or maybe let it heal the natural way I put ointment on my tattoo once a day for the first few days and then just let it heal on its own and my tat came out very clean
They had oil like coconut oil, shea butter oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil, ect.
But I use aquaphor spray for my tattoos.
What happened to your singing videos!?
It was time for a change and something different. I hope you like these too!
Dry heeling is a no, wash tattoo twice a day ,pat dry with towel, and put small amounts of penny black tattoo cream or other tattoo heeling creams
You’re not correct. Plenty of tatts and always use dry healing. They look great. To each their own.
@@j.nalley3480 same here. Most aftercare is unnecessary and is there to get people to spend more money. What even is “tattoo healing cream”? Our bodies heal perfectly fine without moisturising the wounds in any other scenario and being tattooed is really no different.
Only flat earthers dry heal 🌚
HAHA I’m going to start saying that from now on.
lmao this is literally scripted off google
Link? 😂
