We&#8217;re getting there, but we&#8217;ll have to understand what happens when trauma happens to our skin first.<\/p><p>Usually, when there&#8217;s trauma to the skin and foreign substances are entering it, our immune system gets alerted and the inflammation process starts. This is also the case with tattoos.<\/p><p><strong>When a bunch of needles are puncturing our skin with high speeds, injecting ink (the foreign substance), there&#8217;s no doubt the inflammation process won&#8217;t activate.<\/strong><\/p><p>Once that happens when it&#8217;s e.g. a normal wound from falling, the white blood cells exit their vessels and go on their way through the tissue in order to reach the affected area.<\/p><p>Now that they&#8217;ve made their travel, the white blood cells engulf (read: take up) the foreign substances that are usually things like: bacteria, viruses, debris,&#8230; and start to digest and break them down. The thing is, ink isn&#8217;t a biological substance and therefore, our body cannot digest or break it down.<\/p><p>What does it do instead? It takes up the ink from that collagen we talked about, and from the F-cells. <strong>The ink stays in the white blood cells and we can see it through our skin! So, it&#8217;s less of digesting it or breaking it down and more of let&#8217;s contain them so they can&#8217;t go to other areas of the body!<\/strong><\/p><p>So, this is the most stable layer of the skin and the ideal one to get the ink in.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf108a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cf108a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The third layer (hypodermis)<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e0184d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9e0184d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The third layer is still relevant! Yes, we&#8217;ve already went over the most stable layer of the skin, but aren&#8217;t u guys curious <strong>how blow-outs happen?<\/strong><\/p><p>Well it has to do with 2 things mainly. The pressure the tattoo artist applies and the thickness of the dermis, the second layer.<\/p><p>Most of us know that we have a fatty tissue &#8216;under&#8217; our skin, but this is actually the third layer. We can compare this fatty tissue to a bit of an oily substance and let&#8217;s think about what happens to other liquids when &#8216;mixed&#8217; with oils. They don&#8217;t.<\/p><p>That is the reason why ink tends to look blurry if it gets tattooed too deep. Some blurriness occurs or it looks like it kinds of dissapates into the skin.<\/p><p>This doesn&#8217;t always mean the tattoo artist is inadequate. Some areas of our skin are thinner and some are thicker. If a tattoo artist isn&#8217;t used to tattooing areas of the body where the dermis is thinner, yes you might get a blowout. Personally, we don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s a reason not to go to a certain artist, because everybody has to learn. We understand being cautious, though.

This is really important and so is the way of doing it. Here&#8217;s a step-by-step and remember, you should treat this as if it&#8217;s a medical procedure!<\/p><ul><li><p><strong>Wash your hands WITH SOAP(!) for at least 20-30 seconds. If you have antibacterial soap, use that.<\/strong><\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Take off the foil and throw it away. If you have a trash bin with a foot pedal, great! If not, wash your hands again and no, we&#8217;re not kidding.<\/strong><\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Now it&#8217;s time for to wash the tattoo. Wash it with (luke)warm water, not cold, not hot.<\/strong><\/p><\/li><\/ul><p>Things to be mindful of: use only your hand, no sponge nor washcloth; don&#8217;t scrub, don&#8217;t be harsh; do not use a regular body soap or body wash &#8211; use a tattoo aftercare soap only and make sure all of it is rinsed off!<\/p><ul><li><p><strong>If you prefer to dry your skin off after, do so with a clean paper towel! No cloth towels as they hold bacteria and no toilet paper as toilet paper will do it&#8217;s thing and &#8216;dissolve&#8217; into your tattoos. When drying the fresh ink off, it&#8217;s important to pat dry, gentle taps!<\/strong><\/p><p>If you do not like drying your tattoo off, just move on to the next step.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>As your tattoo is now washed you have to apply the tattoo aftercare cream\/tattoo goo.<\/strong><\/p><\/li><\/ul><p>Do not use random lotions! Only tattoo aftercare products. Those are specifically formulated for tattoo aftercare and ensure they&#8217;ll heal properly! Other ointments are often too harsh for tattoos. Keep your tattoos safe and just spend the extra 5-10 bucks for proper aftercare products.<\/p><p>You should also avoid putting too much ointment, a thin coat of it is plenty! More is less guys. Too much ointment can suffocate the tattoo which can cause multiple issues. More on that further down.<\/p><p>Please, do not use shea butter, coconut oil or any things like that on a fresh tattoo.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e938bf8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e938bf8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Over-moisturizing is a thing?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6d170c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6d170c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Yes, my darling and it can be a cause for multiple issues and it can ensure that your newly tattooed skin won&#8217;t be healing properly.

No worries, we&#8217;ll explain.<\/p><p>Dry healing your tattoo is exactly how it sounds. <strong>You do not use any moisturizers!<\/strong> You still have to keep it clean of course and wash the tattoo, but people who go for this method only go for it because, well&#8230; It&#8217;s dry, meaning no moisture since you let your new &#8216;open wound&#8217; heal in the open air.<\/p><p>As already mentioned, the only thing that stays the same is that you&#8217;ll still have to wash it with (antibacterial) soap as per usual. Make sure it is alcohol free, though!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-26c46e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"26c46e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">But why would anyone want that?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a3bb825 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a3bb825\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">There&#8217;s a bunch of reasons why some people choose to go for this method. For starters, <strong>it&#8217;s a more natural aproach for your tattoo aftercare routine.<\/strong><\/p><p>This is especially<strong> convenient for people with (extra) sensitive skin!<\/strong> Skin types that are sensitive for whatever reason, can react to all sorts of stuff including typical ointments. So, healing your tattoo with this method can be a huge plus!<\/p><p>Now if you&#8217;re anything like me (the writer) you know typical hygiene routines can become tasks, sometimes. Whether you&#8217;re depressed or have ADHD, we have to put brushing our teeth and hair on our to-do list or we just simply forget! It&#8217;s not that we are unhygienic people or want to stink and have yellow teeth&#8230; We&#8217;re just forgetful. If you can relate without me even having to explain this more, the dry healing method can saveeee yourrrr lifeeeee!<\/p><p>To sum it all up, the pros to this are that there&#8217;s <strong>no risk of you getting a skin reaction and therefore you prevent infection!<\/strong> It saves you time and effort and therefore the energy that tends to be non-existent sometimes. Not to forget the cherry on top, <strong>no additional costs for new tattoo aftercare creams or soaps!<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-d45d705 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"99452\" data-id=\"d45d705\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3ef2e76\" data-eae-slider=\"3812\" data-id=\"3ef2e76\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02e67d9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"02e67d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<iframe src=\"https:\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/ext\/embed.html?id=525162006560772834\" height=\"545\" width=\"345\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" ><\/iframe>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-894ee06\" data-eae-slider=\"30053\" data-id=\"894ee06\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0994dea elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0994dea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Okay, but the downsides areeee...?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-188cb27 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"188cb27\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The downsides might make you reconsider, hence why we only recommend this method for people with skin types that get an allergic reaction from anything and everything.<\/p><p>Thanks to (or in spite of) the lack of moisture, <strong>the skin will obviously dry out, but it will do even more so with this method causing the skin to crack<\/strong>. Many claim that this might affect how your body art looks once fully healed. Personally, I haven&#8217;t noticed any differences on how my tattoos have healed between the traditional, second skin or dry healing method. Take my words with a grain of salt though, the healing process is different for everybody and there&#8217;s no black or white with this.<\/p><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Moving on, the peeling.

But&#8230; even more so with dry healing. <strong>If you&#8217;re not strong enough to endure the itchiness plus having to restrain yourself to not pick at the scabs or the urge to peel the flakes off, choose a more suitable healing method.<\/strong><\/p><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">It might also elongate the healing process, or it wil at least seem and feel that way.

As I am a very clumsy person, this wasn&#8217;t the first time I&#8217;ve fallen down so I know and also knew then, my body will not heal fast and it\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-fa73c0e\" data-eae-slider=\"19092\" data-id=\"fa73c0e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aec921e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"aec921e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-683x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2384\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/tattoogenda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/pexels-ron-lach-9642843-scaled.jpg 1706w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae1d89d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ae1d89d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">was going to be a sh*tty recovery ride. Tattoos and piercings? My body will heal those like the flash, but wounds? Yeah? No, I have to suffer.<\/p><p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Luckily my (now) ex&#8217; dad had these wound dressings. I don&#8217;t remember what they were called, but essentially it was a bandage with a gelly layer and some sort of ointment in it that kept the wound moist. I used those for a day and I noticed that the healing process had already started??? You can probably imagine my surprise, especially when I tell you, my body does not heal burn wounds fast. Yes I fell down, but you know, riding at relatively high speed, falling down, it wasn&#8217;t just an abrasion, it was a whole a** burn.<\/p><p>I kept changing the bandages whenever I felt necessary, cleaned the wound in between and before I knew it the wounds were closed up. Besides from the redness, my wounds healed in one week. This would&#8217;ve normally taken me up to 3 to 4 weeks, if not more.<\/p><p>I would also like to mention that I had an allergic reaction to the adhesive around the gelly part. As I mentioned before, you win some, you lose some. It was just a rash that didn&#8217;t affect the wound at all so I didn&#8217;t care. A rash goes away in a few days.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7438c28 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7438c28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Ok, ok, hit us with the downsides<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5ffdd9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d5ffdd9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Yeah, you&#8217;re right, don&#8217;t get too hyped up now.<\/p><p>Something that works for someone else might not work for you. What I mean by this is, you need to be mindful of which products you use. <strong>Certain ointments prevent oxygen from reaching the healing tattoo<\/strong> and others are a hindrance to the cells&#8217; healing.<strong> You need experience and a bit of experimenting until you get the right one that works with this method<\/strong>&#8230; or you need extreme luck to hit the best one, first try. And you know, it&#8217;s a tattoo, something permanent on your body. Experimenting comes with its risks.<\/p><p>Like we mentioned a bit earlier, <strong>moisture is the perfect condition for bacteria to grow.<\/strong> Although it is a wet healing method, <strong>you can still over-moisturize.<\/strong> This is why this method is tricky and very risky, because again,<strong> knowing what the right &#8216;amount&#8217; of wetness is comes with experience.<\/strong> If you don&#8217;t have experience, you have to once again experiment. I think it&#8217;s needless to repeat why experimenting is a whole other risk on itself.<\/p><p><strong>Rewrapping can compromise the sterile environment if done incorrectly.<\/strong> Quite honestly, doing it correctly is also tricky. You overlook something small but it ends up being crucial and you get an infection.

It is a gooey substance that will ooze out of your tattoo once it&#8217;s finished. Every tattoo does this but not everyone knows about it since they don&#8217;t trap it thus it&#8217;s less visible. Plasma is the liquid element of blood (55% of blood). The most important thing about that plasma is it&#8217;s richness of the proteins a.k.a. clotting factors. <strong>Once they&#8217;ve reached the surface of the wound, it creates a barrier which limits inflammation and helps with regeneration.<\/strong><\/p><p>That plasma usually hardens and BOOM, we have scabs we now have to resist picking. <strong>The second skin bandage keeps the plasma in it&#8217;s liquid form.<\/strong> The first 24 to 48 hours you will &#8216;leak&#8217; more plasma than for the remaining of the process, but that plasma loses it&#8217;s healing properties after the first 24 hours.
