How to Get Tattooed

Tattoo art consists of creating designs on the body with sharp needles. Special ink is inserted within the created tattoo artwork. Modern tattooing involves use of special tattooing machines. These machines can create and fill up tattoo design with different colored inks. Tattoo artists normally use gloves to cover hands while tattooing to avoid staining.  

Body Piercing

Piercing body parts like ears, nose, navel, eyebrows, lips, or just about any other part of your body is a craze among the young. Body piercing creates openings in the body. These holes are used to wear spunk jewelry like rings and beads. Similar to tattoo parlors, you can visit piercing parlors to get pierced at any specific part on your body. Using jewelry with tapered ends can make piercing sessions simpler and faster.  

Essential Precautions While Piercing

Hollow and medicated needles are the best instruments for piercing any body part. Often needles remain in place while jewelry to be worn within the pierced hole is inserted. Piercing instruments are little larger than the jewelry to be used. This provides a wider hole for inserting jewelry easily. After piercing body part, take precautions similar to tattooing. Pierced body parts take little time to heal. Allow it to heal normally and naturally.

 Taking Care of Your Tattoo

Tattoo artists bandage your tattoo to prevent any infection. Tattooing causes a wound and if you keep your wound open, it can cause bacterial infections. Prefer to use medicated bandages than plastic wraps for your tattoos as bandages help your tattoo to breathe while plastic wraps cause intense suffocation. Tattoo patterns, designs, or tattoo letters should remain bandaged for over two to three hours immediately after completion.  

After removing bandage, wash tattoo pattern or tattoo design gently with your hands using lukewarm water and mild soap with antibacterial properties. This cleanses your tattoo design of any blood or traces of ointment. Use clean paper or cloth towel to pat dry your tattoo artwork thoroughly. Do not rub your tattoo vigorously to wipe it dry. Apply a light coating of any recommended antibacterial ointment specifically for use on tattoo designs.

Sometimes, tattoos could ooze plasma. This makes your tattoo design look and feel slippery. Remove such ooze gently with your hands. If plasma dries on tattoo surface, it may cause scabs and spoil the look of your tattoo design. Use special lotions recommended for use on tattoos to maintain soft skin.  

You can take a shower with your new tattoo design or tattoo picture. Be careful to remove any remnants of soap or shampoo from your tattoo. You should not soak your tattoo in water. Avoid swimming for two to three weeks after getting a tattoo done on any body part. 

All tattoo designs irrespective of whether they are tattoo letters, tattoo armbands, tattoo floral designs, tattoo patterns, or tattoo pictures, take few days to heal completely. You may notice little peeling during healing period. This is normal and nothing to panic about. Place warm moist compresses with recommended lotion to get relief from peeling irritation. Itching may be present but avoid picking or scratching your tattoo design. Always protect your tattoo design from harsh ultra-violet rays of the sun. Use proper sun blocks on your tattoos to prevent them from fading away.
