    Not a stupid question at all.

    I'm a guy and I have a couple on my arms, I'm hairy though so I shave them (hair growing through tattoos ruins them imo) anyway, I waited a couple of weeks till the scabs had gone and it had stopped pealing (can't imagine shaving all that skin off can be good.)

    So I can't give you an exact time since everyone heals as slower of faster rates, but wait till it's healed anyway, you will know by the look of it :).

    You should really wait until it has fully healed ( Usually 2 - 4 weeks ) Once the scab had fallen off ( Without your help )

    Everyone is different when it comes to tattoos healing.

    Mine are usually fine after 2 weeks.

    My tattoos go from my shoulder to my elbow and a bit of hair grows there so I shave it off.

    Don't shave my lower arms though, just the inked area and my pubes.

    Can't actually think of what the film it's from(enlighten me please), it looks like it's taken from a crappy swedish porn or something along those lines...
