Whats going on with my tattoo?

[Emmar15]

So my tattoo is a week old. And i hate it! Im booked in to see my artist next week but need some advice in the mean time. Are these areas blow outs or normal healing?

you can't tell any F***ing thing in a week !

What Dan means to say is..

 

You have to let it heal before you can accurately judge a tattoo. You can't tell if there's an issue in a week. 

Give it a 3-4 weeks. Go back to get it fixed if you don't like it

Can a tattoo look blown out while healing?

I've never seen a tattoo that looked blown out and then later looked normal, but maybe someone else has.

Listen, EVERYONE is telling you to calm down and let it heal. AFTER it heals, in 6-8 weeks, you'll know what it will look like. Here's the thing - You can't fix blow-outs, so it doesn't really matter if it's blown out or not. No, they are NOT normal, but they do happen. It's not always the artist's fault, they tend to happen more on thin, delicate skin.

Tattoos are not perfect. I've never seen a tattoo that you couldn't find something wrong with if you looked hard enough. If perfection is your goal, I wouldn't get any more.

I don't think there's any need to be rude. I was simply asking advice about whether it is a blow out or not.

I really don't think anyone was purposely being rude to you.  I think they were taking time out of their personal lives and applying their knowledge of tattoos to try to help you.

If you stick around awhile you'll see that the same question gets asked time after time and it's difficult not to occasionally get frustrated by people's impatience.

FOUR TIMES!

I understand you are worried, but if everyone is telling you the same thing, I'm not sure why you keep asking. Blow outs suck, but they are a part of getting tattoos. And there is nothing you can do about them, so try to relax.

Clearly, I disagreed. It can be helpful to explain to someone that a fresh tattoo isn't indicative of the final result rather than simply swearing at them to wait.

Dan, I think you stated your case beautifully. 🙂

But you need to stop sugar coating it. What are you REALLY trying to say????  :-)
