    Yea if he just got it, it would have some swelling. Also, you only leave the saran wrap on until you get home to wash it, it's otherwise not needed.

    This is true, they say keep it on until you are able to wash it for the first time. But they didn't use saran on mine.

    That's the first thing I thought once I saw it on a comp and not a phone. The swelling and shine from the ointment are dead giveaways if it's real. You have neither. Mine didn't get wrapped bc it was on my back. I'd look like a clear mummy if they wrapped me.

    Not necessarily true on the redness/swelling or the ointment. Could have been taken right after first wash. I usually let mine air dry after a shower or cleaning before reapplying anything.

    it's funny you mentioned that, and then post this 2 days later.




    generally speaking, I think we all know that most tattoos get red and swell to some extent after they are first done.

    Like I said Not necessarily true. I mean come on I've been doing this for quite some time and yes they do get red and swell but check the other pic I posted. It is a picture a day after and there is no red or swell. Just saying it all depends on the person gettting the tattoo.

    the guy that did mine told me to saran wrap it for like 5 days, and clean it about 5 times a day and reapply and re wrap.
