Should i use emu oil on a new tattoo?
Hey there, I’m an apprentice in a tattoo studio and my brother is a professional well-known tattooist in the UK. I would advise you to use Bepanthen (nappy rash cream) as it soothes the skin, it keeps the skin smooth so the tattoo won’t crack and the dry skin will eventually disappear. After applying the cream, we advise our customers to wrap their tattoo in cling film as the sweat and heat from your body will help the tattoo heal much quicker. They also use this method in other professional studios. Do not soak your tattoo or scratch/irritate it! This cream and cling film will keep the colour of the tattoo and leave it uncracked. I hope this helped you.
