Try h2oceans Products! They are made to work isotonically with your skin. none of those ointments or creams were made by those companies to heal a tattoo..at all.
I went 6 hours on a key on my forearm. a freind who was starting to do tattoos, actually this was hist FIRST tattoo on someone (that turned out amazing considering) took 6 hours. he was scared to hurt me and took foreverrrrr. I was like dude I have a full pheonix on my back that took 3.5 hours to inverse outline...after he touched it up (which took a much shorter amount of time) I am happy with it.
My throat for sure. I have yet to do my feet or ribs, but have them everywhere else from fingers, all over arms, chest, torso, stomach, pelvis, covered back, to legs.
Finishing my throat piece next week and dreading it!!
