Tattoo I got...

    I got a tattoo on Wednesday, it has a red outline and yellow filler and its on my finger behind the nail.

    It seems the yellow has gotten really dark over the last two days. It looks like dirty yellow but I have been using the cream since, say 2-3 a times a day, and washing it with warm water.

    Is this what happens before it scabs? and does it scab there? Or does it sound like it its got dirty?

    Thanks

    go back to the artist, that description sounds unpleasant and honestly ill be f**ked if i know if its normal but its there for life and if you're concerned about it you should speak to someone

    I'm also a bit confused by the behind the nail bit too. I know when I got my Pikachu tattoo, the yellow went a bit dark when it was all scabby but it looks fine now that it's all healed.

    Thats what I am hoping, it hasn't started to scab yet so hopefully.


    Thanks

    Any yellow Ive ever gotten done looks like that when healing--kinda dirty yellow--its the same with white.Never looks really white until fully healed.

    Sounds fairly normal to me OP.

    Good to hear, was really unsure why it was like that, I was doing what I was told with cream etc..

    Thanks again:D
