mik-e_smilez Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 well you are supposed to avoid direct sunlight for at least a month. preferably 3. I got my tattoos at 2 differnet places and they each told me something different. If you can keep it covered up for a month you should be good. It is still early enough. just have to be careful in Miami. Good luck and enjoy! ------------------'i wish U Heaven'"People who talk in metaphors should shampoo my crotch""and remember Kids, You Can't spell cracKed out with K"aol IM=MikE420DKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back2basics- Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 Yeh just had a word with my tat man and he says at least 6 weeks preferably more. You need to build up lairs of skin again. Also if it has colour the sun may bleach the colours if you don't let the skin heal.------------------I want to go out blazing..not fade away.Trust in the currency of relationships, it's hard to earn but easy to loose - back2basics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine healed in 1 week in a half. But,You have to keep that out of the sun for a while.I would say wait til the summer is over. You'll be better off.------------------"Last night a dj saved my life."

tyco Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 This might be a stupid question but......what about sun block?

duckets Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 it works..but you're better off just keeping it out of the sun 4 a while, to let it heal. unless of course you have it in a special place.......also. keep it out of chlorine.------------------ "A witty saying proves nothing."-Voltaire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueangel Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 I got a tattoo on my back with color ink, after about a month and a half I went to Ibiza. I used this tattoo goo . . . that's what it's called . . . when ever I was in sunlight. It seemed to work okay. My tattoo didn't fade or anything.BlueAngel ------------------“Life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule.” - Samuel Butler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
