Tattoo healing is pretty simple and hard to mess up imo. My hip tat healed the same as all my other ones. No direct sun, no swimming for at least 2 weeks after and make sure to clean it at least twice a day with a no scent soap

Not hip, but ribs, and I feel like that’s similar. Healing for me was easy but touch ups will probably be needed

Fr. I feel like as long as you keep it clean, avoid soaking it and don’t itch or rub it then it’ll heal just fine

if u don’t mind me asking, how big was ur tattoo and like how complicated was it? i would probably get something small and just black linework with no other colors, do u know if that changes the need for touch ups? tysm!!

It’s about the size of my hand laid flat against my skin! Decently complicated. It’s a bouquet of flowers nicely shaded. I haven’t gotten touchups on mine even though it needs it. I do think colors and more complicated shading definitely need touchups more than just plain black

Yeah for sure. I have 9 tattoos and I’ve only messed up one because I had it in the sun before the 2 weeks was up and it’s also my only one with color when I went back for another she saw it and knew immediately it saw the sun. Shes a real one though because she re colored it for free
