Sorry guys, at the time I wasn’t educated enough about vaseline, I thankfully don’t use it to moisturise my tattoos in the aftercare process any more. Intead of that use shea butter, anykind of tattoo aftercare cream or coconut oil.
The tattoo looks beautiful
I would recommend to take the saniderm off in the shower. This is waaay more comfortable, and gives the glue time to loosen up before removing it.
kira sejerø yes, as I mentioned that in the video - I wish I knew that earlier 😁
I have a big piece on my back and it actually felt so good every time I used cream or lotion. Proof that different methods work for different people.
I've always been told to take off the wrapping and wash with antibacterial soap a few hours after getting tattooed. then use Aquaphor (a thick "healing ointment") for 3 days and then use plain lotion for the rest of the time, but not moisturizing too much so it can still get dry enough to get scabs.
my boyfriend just healed his leg tattoo with Saniderm (a healing film) and when he took it off after the end of the week the tattoo was healed ! so cool. you put the first sheet on for 24 hours to catch all the ink and then you take it off, clean and change it and then you can keep the second one on for 6 days
pale_emo_princess so your BF didn’t put any cream on his tattoo rite ?
The right product is Bepanthene Plus, not the regular Bepanthene. The regular one is for situations where there's no risk of infection. Since the tattoo is an open would, Bepanthene Plus is the way to go for healing: it has no colorants, preservants nor scent. And its transparent and not so thick, so it's very easy to apply.
I've heard the regular one sometimes dimms or diminishes the saturation of the colors, so be sure to get Bepanthene Plus if you're going for it. It's a perfectly safe product sold in any pharmacy.
I only wash and moisturize my tattoo in the morning and before I go to sleep and maybe moisturize during the day if it feels to dry or looks like it needs to be
your videos are so soothing, love them.
I've had many different types of aftercare recommended to me. The one I've noticed works the best is: get the tattoo, take off the wrapping in a few hours, wash with Dr Bronners unscented soap, let dry heal until scabs start to form, then put a VERY LIGHT layer of Aquaphor on.
This one is the one dude .
Your so beautiful and love your tattoos on you! Just got my first tattoo and so happy I found your channel
I have a lot of color tattoos the oldest about 8yrs old. "Saniderm" most artist now about it, but you put it on and forget about it for a week or so. I recommend, prevents scabing and holds color really good.
I tried coconut oil on my newest tattoo and in liked it much better than using lotion when its feeling dry coconut oil seemed to of helped keep the tattoo more moist than lotion did
Wow, the color actually held in quite nice on yours, my hands or knuckles don't hold ink well at all and I've done the proper healing process but they just fade so fast.
I have tried all the methods you've said. I like saniderm but it irritates my skin, healed the tattoo quickly with no scabbing, but left me with hyperpigmentation in places around the tattoo. Sadly dry healing doesn't work for me my tattoos itch like crazy. I use coconut oil and a mixture of non scented lotion to do the trick.
I feel like almost every heavily tattooed person prefers dry healing, or at least who I have heard talk about it
I have lots of tattoos and i've always used an Organic Tattoo Butter made from Avocado from my Tattoo shop they always healed perfect by putting only a small layer on the skin. I had a girlfriend who went to the same tat artist as me she dry healed and i gotta say my tattoo has more vibrant colours than hers.
Heavily tattooed people nowadays are hipsters,hippies etc so any method that screams "natural" "organic" in it will make them fall hard in these traps
I use tattoo goo green soap and Hemp Tattoo Balm from my local market which has been a godsend!!
i used second skin once and the tattoo healed in the normal time frame for me (2 weeks) but it was easier. my artist told me to leave it on for 4 or 5 days and then afterwards only use lotion when needed. it was so great to not stress about my tattoo for those first few days and then just listen to what my body was telling me after that. my only complaint is that i did bleed enough that the tattoo ended up being covered in dried blood for those first few days and he told me if that happens i can take it off and heal it normally but i really wanted to ride it out. it ended up being fine, but maybe i should've just taken it off lol
I tried the first and the third method. I used Bepanthen Plus and it gets the job done with a good result but not really the best feeling during the process. A bit too sticky and the smell was also not my favourite. The film was really the best. I tried it for a colorfull tattoo (watercolor) and the final result was reallly good! Also, I didn't need to worry with anything and the tattoo was healed in 6 days. And yes, the glue in dermalize is really hard to get out. I just could take it off in the shower with warm water. Now i'm also healing two new tattoos (in black) with a vegan cream.
Thank you for sharing!! Love your tattoos 😍
First I used Bepanthen too, but then I changed to a clear ointment that won't leave white spots on my clothing.
I'll definitely try dry healing on my next tattoo since when I got my first one I did the traditional method and it took about a week and a half to scab and I was really concerned about it. But it turned out okay it healed just fine there was no lifting of the ink but I was still scared and I hated having the sticky lotion on my arm
Mariel ME deffinetely then try Dry Healing out, cuz it was the same for me - the scabb would not form. Now the scab shows up on the third day.
Dermalize is what I used and it is just as difficult in the shower. I removed all the adhesive safely but I was in the shower for 90 minutes... Fantastic protective cover but the removal is a killer.
Kieran yea, and trying to remove it fir 90mins in a hot shower is probs not good for the tattoo too. 😁 do let’s hope they will uodate it with time and make it easier to remove
I got my first tattoo before 2 weeks or three weeks and i washed it after one day and i keep doing that i used hustle butter after i washed it with tattoo goo soap but the color is gone so i just fix my tattoo and i plan to keep it dry i wall not but anything on it for 3 or 5 days after i wall used hustle butter my tattoo artist say the color is gone because i didn't keep it dry can you help me please ?
I recently got a tattoo and now I’m having pimples in the healing process. Should I stop applying the cream?
the healing film made me break out in hives in my inner arm because my skin pulled every time I moved but for a flat area like the shin it works well
pale_emo_princess I’m having this problem atm what did you do to help this?
I recently got my first tattoo. I let it dry for 4 days before I decided to put some lubriderm on it. Now I just put a light layer of aquaphor on it. It was very very scabby and dry, already starting to flake a bit. Hoping it heals nicely.
Awesome! Sounds like your healing went well! I also think that if you dry heal it, it heals faster, like the scab shows up earlier. So sounds like you did everything right and also moisturising the tattoo when it gets really itchy is a good thing to do.
How long did you had swollen hand for because I have done my hand tattoo yesterday
Great vid , what I’m trying now is raw Shea butter with a bit of tea tree oil so far working well for me
Love the hand tattoo, looks amazing. Just curious why u chose to get a flower on ur hand to finish ur Halloween sleeve instead of doing the spider and web idea u had originally. Either way looks great !
Mark Douglas Because the spider ended up going on my elbow :) and I knew I kind of wanted my hands to match yet be a little different but not too different 😁
It’s looks great ! I’m jealous lol I love the way it fits ur hand
I had tegaderm for my inner bicep as well and it was a life saver. I did the tattoo in 2 sessions and the first time I did aftercare as usual, but it was excessively peeling and constantly rubbing my sleeve. The second time we wrapped it as usual and then the next morning re applied after washing it and left it for 6 days. It was annoying for the first few days but after that it was fine and almost completely healed.
I took mine off in the shower and that still hurt in some spots but was much easier than doing it dry!
Is a light layer of ( a few drops to cover the tattoo) Organic Coconut oil good for healing new tattoos?
So what do you use that huge jar of vasaline for now?
I got my new tattoo also wrapped in saniderm but my tattoo artist didn't but it on well so one corner was pretty much completely open and other parts weren't well either so when I got home (4 hours later?) I just took it off and am now healing it the traditional way.
Well, I hope it heals good :) My saniderm/cling film thing corners also started pealing off, but somewhere on the end of the second day. I hope also it came off easily for you.
@ Thank you :) It came off surprisingly easy, maybe because most of it was already loose or because my tattoo artist shaved around the tattoo area a lot so it wouldn't hurt. I feel like I've had bandages that were harder to remove but maybe I just got lucky :D
Great content , have a question , can we use sunscreen and tattoo shiny balm at single time , like we should apply balm first then sunscreen or sunscreen first.
Please ans would be a great help thanks
Every tattoo I did the traditional form of healing on fucked up sooooooo bad, but then I tried dry healing and I've done it ever since and works like a charm, my tattoos have never look so CRISP
Please dont use vaseline!!
Instead you can use:
⬇️
*Coconut oil,
*vitamin e oil,
*cbd cream or
* eco friendly shea butter ( if you get palmers ones it has palm oil in severely damaging the forests & animals so please avoid planets) xx Much love & happy healing xx💕
In healing process or after it is healed?
What about hustle butter?
I got my hand done late thursday. Ive just kept taking the film, gently washing, reapplying bepathen tattoo and reapplying new film. I dunno whether to leave the film off now or not..
I might of accidentally forgot I had a tattoo and took a 30 minute bath... it looks fine it’s 6 days old scanned over and very small do you think all will be good someone please answer I need to know😂
I had the film for a tattoo on my chest. The tattoo healed really quickly, in under a week. I also found it very difficult and annoying to take off the film. The film also gave my skin around the area a rash.
Isn't it derived from latex? If so, you may be allergic. If it's not or if you know that you aren't allergic to it, then perhaps the adhesive has some chemical that you are allergic to.
Many people’s skin will get irritated from it. Mine only does around the edges, and it isn’t so much irritated as it is just a little red, which is why I usually use the 6 day tegaderm to heal. My boyfriend can’t stand it however, his skin always gets super itchy and splotchy around it. Everyone’s different I guess 🤷♀️
I have full sleves and i always heal my Tattoos like this: 1. The Tattoo Artist will wrap it in clingfoil. 2. I leave it on for 2 Hours 3. then wash it with the right sope ofcourse 4. put that Bepanten Cream on it 5. wrap it again with cling foil.
And i repeat that every 4-6 hours for 3-4 days. After those 3-4 days i do not put clingfoil on it i only wash it and put cream on it
Joeleen Webb how about the heal result ? Is it good or no?
@@riozest6078 Yeah the heal result is great...Tattoo artists are always suprised that nothing needs a touch up coulse everything heald so well and how great it looks for how "old" they are.
I can't get with Saniderm both times I've tried it its started leaking less than 24 hours in, dry healing always seems to be the way for me.
Yep, you are to supposed to replace the first application.
Great tattos you have. Iv just had my forearm done 8 hr sitting so its big i had saniderm put on the next day for 7 days as instructed by my tattoo artist i was using raw coconut oil but it was making my tattoo really itchy im now using hustle butter and boy its amazing ps the saniderm was amazing mine came off easy no pain atoll tattoo is now looking amazing and healing well 2 weeks in
Not sure I'd use a moisturizer on a fresh tattoo. Bepanthen is a first aid cream, antiseptic for wounds.
I got my tattoo to 5 days ago 😅 on my under arm, first day just bepathen. 2th day i did dermalize on it cause i went to a party in the night. It was awesome i can sleep put clothes on no creme on it wathever. And it healed super good. Now i got it off , that was shitty, and i will put bepathen on when i am at home chilling for 1 more week .
Can I use virgin coconut oil as my aftercare product (on day 4-5 after gettin' inked) instead of oitment or lotion cream?
Well, I mean, if you use coconut oil to moisturise your body on a daily then you can surely use it after the scab has fallen off and if the new tattoo feels "too tight" or too dry. For when the tattoo is still healing and forming a scab Id recommend following your tattoo artists instructions for aftercare. But Im guessing that on day 4/5 the scab has mostly come off (also depends where you got tattooed) and it is safe to us coconut oil to moisturise your tattoo.
The transparent bandages work very well in my experience.
For each it's own :)
What kind of flower is your hand tattoo? Or is it just a design? It's very beautiful either way
It is just a design :) Thank you
you dont have to wash your tattoo that much, if you are outside the whole day maybe yes, but if you are at home just washing it 1, max 2 times its more than enough, to much humidity in the tattooo area is not good at all.
I've heard Bepanthen is not good for tattoos. This is what google says, lol. Bepanthen is not recommended for tattoo aftercare. It is intended to treat nappy rashes on a baby's bottom. Incorrect use can cause your tattoo to develop a marbled effect
I just got my first tattoo and the artist who did it advised to wash it 3 to 4 times a day and mentioned lotion as an option. She said to just use it when I feel my body needs it :) which feels good to me too.
Congrats! :) Not to throw shade on the artist, but washing a fresh tattoo so often sounds wrong, when most artists advise for you to keep a very fresh tattoo out of the water as much as possible, and you can wash it a few hours after the session when you take the wrap off (to get any excess gunk off of the tattoo). But I hope that you will find a way and do what feels right to you.
Barbara Crane I had no idea, thank you for letting me know!
Ouch! Hand tattoo! you’re a champion!
🏆🥇🏅
I don't think anyone recommended, moisturize it more than 4 times. Just take pinch of ointment and rub it,and keep it bit dry. Don't soak it in moisturizer/ointment
Does anyone know when it is ok to sleep on your new tattoo? As just. Got my rib done and am not comfortable sleeping
Thanks
Same hahahaha
@@danijelawew
Well I'll let you know when or if I find an answer out dont seem to be too Mich information out there about this
I mean don’t intentionally sleep on it but if you end up rolling onto it, you’ll be fine. I rolled onto on of my shoulder tattoos in the middle of the night and left a clean copy of the tattoo on my bed sheets aha
@@industrynews9076 lol ive done that before on my back yeqrs ago but thanks for the advice
Absolutely gorgeous…I think she was saying something about ink or healing lol. j/k great advice 🤙🏻
I never use anything for tattos, only if I have huge tatto I might use some lotion because feels too tight. Iam tattooing myself and I do recommend my costumers to do dry healing.
You definitely shouldn't put vaseline on your tattoos! It won't help them heal, it's not a moisturiser it's a type of jelly that will just protect the tattoo whilst it's on it. It definitely won't help to heal it
The idea with Vaseline is procrastinating the healing process, it keeps the ink in, more of it will be accepted by body when doing this, at least that's the idea
rr M Most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. And I’ve been tattooing 30+ years!
@@maselm so you're an old man that reacts to informative replies like a little boy? Cool
rr M Isn’t that what you have done? Oh the irony hahaha
@@rrm1903 tattoo-world is full of these dumb manchilds that not only are too stupid to understand the basic science behind the art but are also too asshole to learn and listen to advice when it's kindly offered and stop ruining poor people's skin... This one is here is a good example his 2 replies alone shows the depth of his stupidity idk where to begin......... 🤦🏻♀️
Question for all !!!!!!!!
After your tattoo is healed, lets say 7-8 months after you got it....
Can you now, at this point use any kind of lotion?
Or does it still have to be fragrance free?
Kee.SaceNJ any type
Yes
You know you act like the grain is a bad thing but I actually like it
Julian MORIN really? 👀 I think it just shows how bad of a quality the video is
Bepanthen is great but I struggle so hard to do a 'thin layer' like recommended because it's so thick, really annoying, but it makes the itching vanish instantly
try to warm the tube before applying! e.g. put it in a glass of warm water to warm it up, it makes it a lot easier to apply in a thin layer
I just got a hand tattoo is it ok to put ice on it
The film is acting like an external skin layer, but you need to change it, wash it, and reaply without getting bacteria underneath. It would aid in healing, but gotta be careful.
I mean reaply with a new piece, don't use the same piece! That'll go badly
yeah, listen to your body
Hello...I dry healed all my tattoos too.My tattooist always told me "just don't let it get too dry" maybe apply ointment "Polysporin or Vitamin A&D"2 or 3 times max..a day.my skin heals pretty well doing it this way.Everyone is different really.I don't think I would be able to stand the healing film covering my skin and then removing it later😩🤕🤦
Very interesting
DONT PUT VASALINE ON YOUR TATTOOS!!!!
Why?
Filip clog up your pores
I just got my arm done and we used that film. I really liked it and I kept it on for over 24 hours. And I started to peel it off and it fucking hurt, so I said you dumb dumb why don’t you just put your arm underwater and peel it off and it peeled off beautifully. My artist gave me some kind of organic tattoo healing balm, so far I really like it it’s very light weight and Doesn’t feel heavy
day 5 6 7 are so itchy
why don't you try aquaphor that heal tattoos.
From what i understand, it's similar to bepanthen and a&d.
but it work better.
