@@kaylawilliams7551 just make sure to clean off the plasma drops. Don’t want those hanging out on ur tats it’ll take ink off. Wipe off and put the ointment on but don’t sleep with the ointment on
What a sick tattoo you got there. i have mad respect for people like you willing to get such a huge tattoo. that shit hurts a TON. I kinda forgot some steps my tattoo artist told me, so i looked up a yt video on the aftercare process. you pretty much summed up everything the tattoo artist explained to me. great video 👏
I’m on tattoo number 6 and I swear, I never stop watching this video to help with the aftercare! This has been the best video for me and my tattoos ❤️!
I just got my first tattoo and watching these videos have made me feel so much more confident of taking care of my tat and not ruining it I was way more scared of having the tattoo then getting the tattoo cause I didn’t know what to do
The tattoo is stunning man! Thank you so much for this series of videos I came when I got my first tattoo and I’m rewatching for the second one I just got today youve really helped me out ☺️
Did your artist use Saran Wrap? Mine used a second skin which you keep on for up to 24 hours. Take it off in a hot shower, clean and dry the fresh tattoo, then reapply a new bandage. Keep this bandage on for 5 days. This works super well and really helps with the itching and healing process, especially if you are a tradesman like me who works in an often dirty environment. Highly reccomend that method.
damn that is a sick tattoo. got the last part of my sleeve done today after a 2 year break and just wanted some confirmation that i was doing it rigth and it all came back with your vid. thats some nice work you got there man.
Got my first tattoo yesterday, took 4,5 hours of pain😂 My artist told me one hour plastic wrapping, clean it off and the wrapping only for the first two nights, when sleeping. If your tattoo gets too wet, which is why too much wrapping is harmful, you can develop inksacs under your skin. It‘s important to get fresh air. The cream is supposed to be applied after day two as well.
Got my first one yesterday. 6 and a half hours of needle time ✌✌ I've got my aftercare instructions but I was curious abt other methods so here i am :D
Thanks dude. Just got my first tatt and it’s really helpful. Appreciate you taking the time to upload this. That is an absolutely incredible sleeve you have there. Must have taken a long time! Xx
@@Kim.Elusive was awesome man. Almost 7 hours I did in the end and that was my first time 😂 glad I took plenty to eat and drink as by 5 hours my body was in full panic mode. Strange but addictive experience
@@matdan6081 how much did that cost you? I just had a half sleeve done, about this size. A clock and big skull. 4.5 hours, $1200. Around the 4 hour mark my body was in panic mode too. Lol
@@lomparti £300 for the full day but I do know the artist too so it was a bit cheaper, I had a lion, a compass and a rose. First few hours I was coasting but by 4/5 hours I was so ready for it to be done. I had a 4 hour session a few month back on my inner forearm and I found that tough... Super nippy hahaha
My artist has me keep it wrapped for 3 whole days with “second” skin. (I don’t get it wet for 3 days). Then twice a day wash it with “SpectroGel Purple” and apply unscented lotion as needed and to not peel it. Different way of doing it (and he’s as good as tour artist who is very good) cool video!
This video is such a life saver, I am getting a tattoo in a month and I'm trying to research as much as I can and I've been looking for a video like this
I just got my first tattoo , it’s a snake coiled around my leg with a crescent moon on top..I was quite emotional , I always wanted one. ❤️ all thanks to my new boyfriend and his sister and my own little sister .
The drying out for half an hour part is so important! Here is what I did.. Day of tattoo Leave wrap on untill bed, wash with luke warm water and tattoo soap, pat dry with kitchen towel sheets, leave for the night. Day 1 - 4 Wash with luke warm water, pat dry with kitchen towel sheets, leave for half an hour and then apply bepanthan. Day 5 - 9 Leave alone for the natural healing process (when peeling and scabs start. Washing and adding moisturiser can potentially cause tattoo bubbling at this point so I just left my arm alone) Day 9 or 10 Wash, pat dry, wait half an hour and apply moisturising lotion.
@@gamelife0196 It's not what I would advise as similiar to the wrap it's preventing your skin from properly breathing and at day zero it's an open wound almost. Nothing to worry about though as many do leave the wraps on over night and apply ointment straight away. Guessing you have had the ointment on now for 6 + hours now so I would wash it and follow the instructions in my first step (day of tattoo) but once you have washed it wait 8 hours (or if it is night time for you, over night) before applying any ointment
Thanks so much for the video! I just got mine done and I was freaking out bc I lightly touched it and bits of ink were in my hand but it’s the same thing you washed off !
I do the exact same as this. Take off and clean after 5 hours of tattoo. Re cover for the night. Wake up. Take off cover. Clean again. Dry. Then begin creaming.
Thank you for this video. Your tattoo looks absolutely gorgeous! I am getting my very first tattoo next month so learning as much as i can so i dont screw it up haha
@@anthonyoskolkoff5625 No, 😆. I just see SO many kids doing that shit tho, I like to comment that like bait for idiots to shine some light on how stupid they really are. I do have my hands done but that was after full sleeves and a full time job. Guess I’m just old now and don’t “get it”
Just got my tattoo no less that 24 hours ago and my artist said to leave the film on for 3 days and then I’m good to take it off, and do things like jormal
Fuuuuck i just got my 1st tat ever done for 3 hours on the top side of my hand less then an hour ago and Holy fuck I had keep it together. The 1st while was bareable but the 2nd half felt like someone was carving in sun burnt skin
@@justinkd man it was great i got like a venomous snake on my lower arm for years i thought it was gonna hurt like crazy but it didn’t so I’m definitely gettin more next month
Just got my first tattoo today, my artist told me i could take the plastic covering it off when i got home but isn't having it on for overnight or at least a couple hours better?
You’re supposed to take it off about 2-4 hours after it’s done to clean it but I would recommend putting a new one back on just for the night so it’s not sticking to bedsheets or clothing and also acting as another barrier from bacteria
@@justinkd only prob I think I have is on day 0 after washing it before I went to bed I put alot of a&d oitment on(didn't know better at the time)+ a plastic wrap. then the next morning it seems it got too much moisture in it and I think alot of the color came out
My artist was right once you start there’s no stopping getting a tattoo. I’m already on 5 but there all small. He said on the 3rd day is when I take it off and clean it. I saw this video last year for my 4th one. Of my cats paw print.
I for one thing figured out my own method of healing, after several tattoos. I leave the plastic wrap for the first 12 hours, then clean ir and then let it get some air. When ever I have to put some clothes on it or Its bedtime I wrap it in plastic again. That's the first 3 days when it still oozes. My tattoo artist finds my methods very weird but that's the only way I managed to keep the tattoo from getting irrita ted, painful and all messed up with my bed sheets and clothes. Edit: also, second skin is the best way to avoid all that.
Hey Man, I just got a tattoo on my thigh on the 5th. I’ve been away from the gym due to letting my leg recover. How long do I wait until I can officially go back and train legs? Thank you in advanced!
Ointment should be applied by the artist after the tattoo is done to help clot up the wounded skin. Then, you want to let it dry out. I would recommend putting minimal ointment or cream for a day or two. Personally, I recommend cream because people tend to put too much ointment on, which turns the scabs to mush and draws out the ink. Cream doesn't do that but needs to be applied more often. The brand doesn't really matter. Just make sure it has A and D vitamins, which help the skin heal. Keep the tattooed surface out of the sun, UV light will fade the ink, and wounded skin is more susceptible to sunburns. Avoid standing water. No swimming. Showers instead of baths. Don't pick the scabs. It should take 2 weeks for the surface to fully heal. It may take longer for people with autoimmune conditions.
I do things completely differently! I leave the foil on for 4 to five hours. Then wash the tattoo with soap - just like you. Then i apply creme and don't use any foil anymore. I have found that without the foil, the wound will incrustinate, whereas with the foil it stays moist, which delays the healing process. Cool video to watch, though 🤙🏻 but Bro, using the same foil again? Iuhhhh
this tattoo is amazing! my only advice to everyone who might see this comment: DO NOT RE USE THE PLASTIC WRAP!!!!! GET A NEW CLEAN PIECE AFTER YOU WASH!!!
Exactly! He said to go get that plastic that u took off, and after cleaning, put it back on after 30 minutes. NOOO, do NOT use the original plastic! Eeek…🤦🏼♂️
I have always told my clients to never rewrqp it . Tattoo needs to breath . Two hours on plastic is maximum recommendation by me also advised by the health department to not even use plastic at all but gauss medical gauss 💯🤷🏻♂️. After the rains a Thin rubber appointment would do best
I'm getting work done in September. I'm thinking about using saniderm, but my lower leg tattoo is going to be done throughout three days, so I don't know if that complicates things
I wouldn’t use the saniderm in this case because you’ll be getting it done in the 3 days back to back. You could still use it but I think it’s better to just use the regular plastic wrap, keep it on for the day and once the whole things done... then use the saniderm
Will working in the heat sweating cause I worked at a bread bakery in summer time super hot in there sweating and all will that cause a tattoo to fade because I have a sleeve on my arm laugh now cry later with clown with spades and dice 🎲 when I was working there 2021 but wanna touch up cause it's looking light I have black and Grey tattoos . Any advice
I wouldn't use a bar of soap or it has to be a new one. I'm afraid it's getting dirty by putting it somewhere unprotected or it's still dirty from the last time you used it. Antibacterial soap (unscented) from a bottle is my way to go with a fresh tattoo. Cheers
I always wash my hands with the bar before washing the tattoo so you get anything off the surface before applying. But yeah using the soap from the bottle would be another option that’s probably a better choice 👌🏽
@@justinkd it's something small and a soap bar definitely couldn't harm the tattoo. But hey with that of a investment (time, a lot of money, pain) investing in this little things shouldn't be a headache. Better be safe then sorry. By the way love the video's. Was binge watching them the other day before my session this week. My artist work with sessions of max 5 hours. Do you have experience with artists with hour limits each session?
Hello. I find it quite bizarre, that no one seems to recommend putting an ice pack on the tattoo. It’s a wound, so you need to control the swelling right? Awesome tattoo, btw!
@@justinkd I just had a calf sleeve done, and my ankles have swollen. Normal reaction. So I’m putting an ice pack on it. Seems to relieve the pain and swelling..I refuse to use any drugs.
Very informative. In the process of getting a japanese style hikae tattoo soon. My artist has already penciled me in for a few sessions at two weeks apart each. Question: would it be okay to workout a week after each session or just not workout (weight train, cardio, etc.) At all until the entire process is conplete which will probably be in a month?
I got mine 2 days ago. The artist didn't want to wrap up my arm and told me to wait 3 say till I wash it. I didn't feel any pain when I got my tat but now my arm's starting to sting.
That’s a first but all artists have a certain way for aftercare with their work. I’d say for you to wash It just to get all that plasma and stuff off. And yeah it’s going to sting and hurt for the next couple days 😅
Ik it’s bin a few years Sents the vid release what this video for the first day has helped me out thanks for the tips and tricks and I can’t wait to continue watching to taking car of it
My artist apply Saniderm after tattoo. Leave on for 24hrs. Take off Saniderm wash it with unscentedd soap. Lest it dry and apply a clean sheet of Saniderm and leave it on for 4 days. This keeps you from having to wash it and apply lotion 3-4 day. That’s a hassle. Saniderm is the way to go
My artist gave me a film that is air tight that kept the plasma on top of my peice and he said to leave it on for 24 hours but every video says to get all the excess off after wards..... what should I do
No unfortunately I haven't used that yet. Hopefully I can use it soon so I can review it and have a video up aswell talking about it and the experience. Hearing great things 👌🏼
HIGHLY recommend - you just leave the first wrap on for 4 days, remove in shower, rinse gently with unscented soap, then apply another wrap for 3 days. Game changer

Means a lot to know that even years later. This video is still helping people out and healing tattoos perfectly 🙏🏼👊🏼
My artist was right once you start there’s no stopping getting a tattoo. I’m already on 5 but there all small. He said on the 3rd day is when I take it off and clean it. I saw this video last year for my 4th one. Of my cats paw print.
I love the tattoo. Fantastic design and excellent craftsmanship. Thanks for showing the aftercare video. Keep the videos coming. 🙏
I for one thing figured out my own method of healing, after several tattoos. I leave the plastic wrap for the first 12 hours, then clean ir and then let it get some air. When ever I have to put some clothes on it or Its bedtime I wrap it in plastic again. That's the first 3 days when it still oozes. My tattoo artist finds my methods very weird but that's the only way I managed to keep the tattoo from getting irrita ted, painful and all messed up with my bed sheets and clothes.
Edit: also, second skin is the best way to avoid all that.
Hey Man, I just got a tattoo on my thigh on the 5th. I’ve been away from the gym due to letting my leg recover. How long do I wait until I can officially go back and train legs?
Thank you in advanced!
Ointment should be applied by the artist after the tattoo is done to help clot up the wounded skin.
Then, you want to let it dry out. I would recommend putting minimal ointment or cream for a day or two.
Personally, I recommend cream because people tend to put too much ointment on, which turns the scabs to mush and draws out the ink. Cream doesn't do that but needs to be applied more often. The brand doesn't really matter. Just make sure it has A and D vitamins, which help the skin heal.
Keep the tattooed surface out of the sun, UV light will fade the ink, and wounded skin is more susceptible to sunburns.
Avoid standing water. No swimming. Showers instead of baths.
Don't pick the scabs. It should take 2 weeks for the surface to fully heal. It may take longer for people with autoimmune conditions.
That tattoo looks like the work of BodyWorks. Very nice
Bro I have a cool amount of tattoos but I gotta say this right here is done very well and executed on point💪🏽👍🏼
Thank you eden 🙌🏼
Okay but this man is so fine😍 dope tattoos too
I do things completely differently! I leave the foil on for 4 to five hours. Then wash the tattoo with soap - just like you. Then i apply creme and don't use any foil anymore. I have found that without the foil, the wound will incrustinate, whereas with the foil it stays moist, which delays the healing process.
Cool video to watch, though 🤙🏻 but Bro, using the same foil again? Iuhhhh
this tattoo is amazing! my only advice to everyone who might see this comment:
DO NOT RE USE THE PLASTIC WRAP!!!!! GET A NEW CLEAN PIECE AFTER YOU WASH!!!
What intelligent person would re use dirty plastic wrap on a fresh tattoo
@@drugtestedimmediately7920 .........laughs in idiot ----
Exactly! He said to go get that plastic that u took off, and after cleaning, put it back on after 30 minutes. NOOO, do NOT use the original plastic! Eeek…🤦🏼♂️
I have always told my clients to never rewrqp it . Tattoo needs to breath . Two hours on plastic is maximum recommendation by me also advised by the health department to not even use plastic at all but gauss medical gauss 💯🤷🏻♂️. After the rains a Thin rubber appointment would do best
Dude!!! That tattoo is wicked!!!! 🤩🔥🤩🔥🤩🔥🤩 Great tutorial!!!
I'm getting work done in September. I'm thinking about using saniderm, but my lower leg tattoo is going to be done throughout three days, so I don't know if that complicates things
I wouldn’t use the saniderm in this case because you’ll be getting it done in the 3 days back to back. You could still use it but I think it’s better to just use the regular plastic wrap, keep it on for the day and once the whole things done... then use the saniderm
Will working in the heat sweating cause I worked at a bread bakery in summer time super hot in there sweating and all will that cause a tattoo to fade because I have a sleeve on my arm laugh now cry later with clown with spades and dice 🎲 when I was working there 2021 but wanna touch up cause it's looking light I have black and Grey tattoos . Any advice
just got my first tattoo on my forearm shit hurt like hell bro 😂 but thanks for the tips for real
Yeah not going to lie or play it off like it didn’t, that area hurt for me to 😅
Got mine today , that shit was another level of pain I did not expect 😂😂😂
Always is 😅😂
your tat looks insane, great video brother🙌🏾
Thank you bro. Appreciate the love 👊🏼
Needed this ty Hercules 😂
Mine swelling so much and bleeding. Your looks so clean
I wouldn't use a bar of soap or it has to be a new one. I'm afraid it's getting dirty by putting it somewhere unprotected or it's still dirty from the last time you used it.
Antibacterial soap (unscented) from a bottle is my way to go with a fresh tattoo.
Cheers
I always wash my hands with the bar before washing the tattoo so you get anything off the surface before applying. But yeah using the soap from the bottle would be another option that’s probably a better choice 👌🏽
@@justinkd it's something small and a soap bar definitely couldn't harm the tattoo. But hey with that of a investment (time, a lot of money, pain) investing in this little things shouldn't be a headache. Better be safe then sorry.
By the way love the video's. Was binge watching them the other day before my session this week.
My artist work with sessions of max 5 hours. Do you have experience with artists with hour limits each session?
TheRstate I got antibacterial soap but it’s scented :(
i got so scared when he used the soap. I thought you should only use water and a cream 😨
bro i love you tattoo man , looking cool !👍🏽
Incredible tattoo!! Bravo!!
Best video ever ! thanks bro and I have tattoos but kind of forgot how to take care of one LOL
Your tattoo is so insane. That's amazing 🧚🏽♀️you are also cute too😁🤗🤭
Lmao simp im just kidding
It is a cool tatto
That tattoo is freaking epic dude
Just wait until you see today’s video on my new tattoo 😏
Hello. I find it quite bizarre, that no one seems to recommend putting an ice pack on the tattoo. It’s a wound, so you need to control the swelling right?
Awesome tattoo, btw!
You know I’ve never thought about that but also I’ve never read anything about putting ice on it. I’ll look into it
@@justinkd I just had a calf sleeve done, and my ankles have swollen. Normal reaction. So I’m putting an ice pack on it. Seems to relieve the pain and swelling..I refuse to use any drugs.
I just got a inner bicep tattoo yesterday , going out today what kind of shirt can I use
Very informative. In the process of getting a japanese style hikae tattoo soon. My artist has already penciled me in for a few sessions at two weeks apart each. Question: would it be okay to workout a week after each session or just not workout (weight train, cardio, etc.) At all until the entire process is conplete which will probably be in a month?
I normally jump in the shower yeah awhile after getting my tattoos, then rab the cream on. I've never re wrapped it but will next time.
I got mine 2 days ago. The artist didn't want to wrap up my arm and told me to wait 3 say till I wash it.
I didn't feel any pain when I got my tat but now my arm's starting to sting.
That’s a first but all artists have a certain way for aftercare with their work. I’d say for you to wash It just to get all that plasma and stuff off. And yeah it’s going to sting and hurt for the next couple days 😅
Ik it’s bin a few years Sents the vid release what this video for the first day has helped me out thanks for the tips and tricks and I can’t wait to continue watching to taking car of it
My artist apply Saniderm after tattoo. Leave on for 24hrs. Take off Saniderm wash it with unscentedd soap. Lest it dry and apply a clean sheet of Saniderm and leave it on for 4 days. This keeps you from having to wash it and apply lotion 3-4 day. That’s a hassle. Saniderm is the way to go
I've heard great things about it. Hopefully I get to try it out and experience it for myself 👌🏼👊🏼
My artist gave me a film that is air tight that kept the plasma on top of my peice and he said to leave it on for 24 hours but every video says to get all the excess off after wards..... what should I do
im triggered on how itchy his arm is going to get in a week 😭😭😭
I just got one yesterday it felt amazing cleaning it off I also got a vitamin a&d ointment to keep it from drying
Me: cleaning my tattoo on my ribs and putting a towel in my pants so it catches to water
Genius 🤯
I did not get any ink bleeding out or much plasma after my tattoo. Is that bad?!
I tattooed my self but it wasn’t what I expected 😯!
You tattooed yourself? 🤔
@@justinkd I wrote yes u on my middle finger when I was drunk last night and I'm in the military so I'm screwed
@@devon7221 update? Lol
That tattoo looks great!! Detailing on point.
Respect bro 💯👊🏼
i'm about 24 hours after mine, i'm worried so much ink is getting off .. thank you for this video
Omg me too & mine is doing the same
@@jaliyal4178 its so much better on day 2! This video saved my tat 😂
@@julierosemodelproductions so it’s normal for some of the ink to be coming off ?
@@jaliyal4178 yes ! Totally normal. You'll see tomorrow that barely any ink comes orf
So what day do you know when to stop washing it🤔?
Have you tried Recovery Derm Shield Tattoo Aftercare Bandage? i've used it on my last two tattoos and its works pretty awesome
No unfortunately I haven't used that yet. Hopefully I can use it soon so I can review it and have a video up aswell talking about it and the experience. Hearing great things 👌🏼
HIGHLY recommend - you just leave the first wrap on for 4 days, remove in shower, rinse gently with unscented soap, then apply another wrap for 3 days. Game changer
Link to that wrap?
I got a tattoo on my knee but it’s really bloody any recommendations on what I should do?
I usually take a warm shower and put my tattoos under it for 30 seconds or less. It works for me. I use Aquaphor as well.
That’s exactly what you should be doing 👌🏼👊🏼
