bugaboo

Hi all! I have a tattoo that is 1.5 months old, let me start by saying this was the roughest heal for any tattoo I’ve had, lol. I’m constantly getting bumps on different areas of the tattoo- they hang out and itch for a few days, go away, then new ones form elsewhere. I’d say it’s mostly on the blue, so I’m assuming it may be an allergic reaction to the blue? I’ve showed both my doctor and tattoo artist- my artist says it could just be irritated or hairs growing in & my doctor says it could just be contact dermatitis. So there’s that, lol. Has anyone experienced something similar?

Thanks! I talked to my artist and he said it looks fine, just looks like my skin is just having a rough time healing since we did this in a long sitting!

Hi all! I apologize for posting in Initiation about this matter but it’s my first post! I got this tattoo 9 days ago, currently in its scabbing/peeling phase. One of the leaves got raised (only in the outline) and a little redness around it today. It’s a little itchy, nothing crazy. This isn’t my first tattoo but it’s my first tattoo that I’m dry healing. Does it look okay? Doesn’t hurt, doesn’t feel hot. Just raised and and little red. Thanks in advance!
