My main advice : Keep the tattoo dry whilst it's healing. No swimming, no sunbeds.Use a soft sponge to clean your new ink. Apply a cream to keep the tattoo moisturised several times a day. I find Bepanthen nappy cream to be perfect.

New thigh tatt - my biggest yet! Bloods okay throughout - slightly elevated but not majorly!
