If its done right you will get a little minor scabbing at most
after a few days it will peel like a sunburn...dont be alarmed at that

if it bleeds, oozes or scabs it was not done well.

use whatever method the artist says for care...keep it out of sunlight for 2-3 weeks, also keep it out of water...wash it lightly ( no rags or sponge...hands only) with ivory soap 7-8 times a day warm water wash cool water rinse, pat dry.

It will itch for a few days about a week after its done.

From now on when outdoors with no cover over it use a sunblock stick on it...sunlight fades the inks over time

do these things and if the tat is done right the colors will stay bright forever
