I finally got my tattoo after over a year of planning - huzzah!
It hurt sooo bad - I'm such a puss bag. It felt like a scalpel was being being dug into and dragged across my back. But it only took like 20 minutes, luckily. Now the bandage is all bloody and gross, but it looked so nice before he patched it up -...

I don't want to get yelled at in the tattoo community bc this might be a dumb question, but which set of advice do I follow?
Instructions from Tattoo site of where I'm getting it done:
Remove the bandage after 3-5 hours. Wash the tattoo with soap and warm water, and pat dry with a paper or clean cloth towel....

Yikes. Horrible advice. I work at a tattoo shop, I do tattoos, this is how I heal mine:
remove the bandage after 24 hours. after 24 take a shower and run cold cold water over your tattoo for 5 full minutes. during this time make sure you wash your tattoo very well with your hand and some dial antibacterial soap. make sure you get all the slime and body fluid that's on top of it off of there. what that stuff is is the stuff that makes your tattoo scab. the less of that stuff you leave on, the lighter and flakier the scab will be, and it will heal much quicker. apply a very small amount of unscented lotion (like lubriderm or something) no more than three times a day for two weeks ONLY WHEN IT ITCHES. no picking, no scratching, no tanning, no hottubbing, no baths for two weeks. make sure your showers are quick for the next two weeks. don't let it saturate in water, that makes for a soggy scab that can come off and leave holes in your color. soggy scabs are no good. and NO PICKING SCABS!
that's how i heal mine, and they've all turned out beautifully. definitely don't use neosporin or bactine or anything. thats wrong wrong wrong.
hope i helped!

yeah, what she said! only ive been told to make sure that the lubriderm you use is also the kind for super sensitive skin -- make sure there is NO LANOLIN in it (some have it &some dont), cos that causes allergic reactions in some people, you know, rubbing it into a wound, haha, and that kind of sucks.
&24 hours is best to leave it wrapped, but if 16 or 12 or even 8 hours is easier, my artist has told me thats fine, too.
but yeah, nooooo neosporin. i hate bad advice!

Haha - is that really cool or really dorky?
Or both?
Oh, BTW, she pointed it out to me, and on closer examination I found she was correct. Heh...

Ahh, its so relaxing and beautiful.
