| Q.
Are tattoos safe?
A. Yes, as
long as you go to a reputable artist that is following all recommended
safety precautions.
Q. Does getting
a tattoo hurt?
A. Pain is really relative. Everyone
has a different tolerancy to pain. I'm not going to kid you, though
- it does hurt. Just not that much. Some have compared it to a "hot
scratching feeling". But, people would not be returning again
and again for tattoo after tattoo if it hurt that bad! Most of us
are not into pain, but the beauty of the tattoo and the pride associated
with wearing it far outweighs a little pin-stick here and there.
Q. Why is
my tattoo peeling?
A. Peeling and flaking of a new
tattoo is perfectly normal. Simply apply a little lotion to the
new tattoo three to four times a day. DO NOT peel or scratch the
tattoo.
Q. Can I
shave over my new tattoo?
A. You can shave over a tattoo
once it has healed (when the scab has dissapeared) - you just shave
like you normally would as if the tattoo wasn't even there but make
sure that the tattoo has fully healed first.
