I'm so glad I am not the only one who draps clothing over my fresh tattoos and seeking out the shade as promptly as possible. I can just feel people staring at me wondering what I am doing, or even questioning my sanity. 😂
Lol that’s all that matters! Keep that tattoo out of the sun! Here is the updated video on this topic since this one is so Old 😂 ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
Good suggestions. I am been very diligent about protecting my new tattoos from sun exposure. You're right it's an investment and I want them to look as vibrant and awesome as long as possible without having to retouches frequently.
to be honest, i wouldnt even recommend tanning at all. i actually made a new video about this topic. check it out ruclips.net/video/1z4nlwLB5_o/видео.htmlsi=-fwg29GU8Bce4vFp
How long should I wait to get out in the sun after a new tattoo? (full forearm, in case it depends on the size of the tattoo). I'm not really planing on swimming, but i do like to workout outside. Would 3-4 weeks be enough? Can wearing a UV sleeve help?
I wouldn’t really recommend it. Those sleeves can be really tight on your new tattoo. I’d recommend checking out this video here! It gives you some Insight on tattoos and the summer ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
I would recommend covering it regardless or applying a moisturizing sun screen. I have a updated summer tattoo video! Check it out ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
If the tattoo is healed, use sun screen and for extra protection I’d recommend wear some light fitting clothes. If it’s healing it’s gonna be even tougher because you gotta watch out for the sun and the sand!
Hi! I'm getting my 2nd tattoo on my back done in June ( my birthday treat to myself) what's the best way to heal? I work from home, I'm a woman so I wear a bra....help
So the main jist is going in the water is a no go and to always try and block it from the sun whether with clothes or some form of sunblock? Seems relatively easy enough
I have an Aveeno Intense Relief Overnight Cream which I use as a daily moisturizer and use like 2-3 times a day. If I get this sunscreen moisturizer in the video, how do you recommend using both? The sunscreen moisturizer after the Aveeno one or?
ManlyManTv so even just walking from my car in the parking lot to inside work but covering it up will be fine too right? I don’t have to apply the sunblock if that’s the case?
Great question! Try to keep it out of the sun as much as you possibly can. Or wear a light weight long sleeve shirt. Once it heals make sure you apply sun screen on the tattoo like I recommended on the video. Good luck!
Hello! Covering it can help but with that being said, the sand on the beach can be really harmful to your tattoo. I personally wouldn’t go to the beach with a new tattoo while it is healing 😅
@@EvolveINK I got no choice but to go it is plan anyway 😅 Maybe a plastic cover will do for the sand and light longsleeve will do for the sun. Thanks man
Im getting 2 full days on my legs . 9 days later I will be in Ibiza. I can avoid pools and water but avoiding the sun maybe there abouts impossible. Any tips or thoughts on a tattoo at that stage of healing plz? (FYI changing tattoo date isn’t an option)
It can be tricky for the keg. I’d recommend wearing longer pants to protect it from the sun. Watch this video as well! 3 Reason Why Getting A Tattoo In the Summer Is a BAD IDEA! ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
No... keep out of the sun for like 3-4 weeks. If your tanning outside wrap up the location of your ink and you will fine. But don't expose the tattoo to light or hotub.. beach, etc.
I'm going to melbourne for a holiday for 4 days in 36 hours. By then it will be days 6-10 of the healing process. How should I approach this. Tattoo is on my forearm and I want to wear a short sleeve shirt. If I apply regular sunscreen for those 4 days will it be okay (not doing sunbathing at beach obviously - just regular sight seeing and going around the city CBD) or should i just wear long sleeve shirt over the top the whole time (its like 20 degree celsius of 68 farenheit).
Once that tattoo is fully healed, I always recommend applying sun screen if you are going outside. You always want your tattoos protected so they are always looking nice!
How can I protect a new (so not healed) tattoo when it's 30+ degrees out like, are there cover ups to cover just the tattoo that will work (like special foils or sth)?? i can't imagine having to wear long trousers for four weeks straight just for a 5cm diameter tattoo on an ankle!
I have a friend who got his tattoo 2 days ago and he been in the river and pool for 2 days, exposed to chlorine how do you treat it ? Genuinely asking for a friend please answer if you guys know how to fix it or heal it !!
i got a pretty big thigh tattoo last friday and the peeling seems to be almost done, when would be a safe time to go to the beach? and how would i tan with a new tattoo
My tattoo is still healing (peeling), at 2 weeks, and I stepped out to run an errand and felt the burn every time I left the car. I wasn’t outside for more than 2 minutes in general but I was wondering how long would it be until the sun starts doing damage? Ps I been staying inside ever since I got this tat 😂
If the tattoo is still healing the sun damage can happen pretty quickly. When the tattoo is healed it can take a little bit longer before any noticeable damage. Best recommendation is for you to keep that bad boy out of the sun as best you could 😂
@@Yonas2020 same here dude. I stepped out of the shop to walk to my car, and I immediately felt the rays when they hit my shoulder. It was super noticeable
@@ceez3317 yup. They say it only takes 2 weeks to heal. False, more like 4 weeks because the new skin at 2 weeks is upper fragile and delicate. You might be able to swim after 2 weeks and have no infections but the sun will burn it easy at that point still
🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️ i mean if you got the proof then im wrong. Im thinkin amongst the tattooed community we kind of choose not to get it during the summer. But then again thats just opinion

Yes sir! It’s really important!
My first tattoo will. Be in the summer. I'll keep. It covered during the few weeks of healing by loation it but also wear long sleeves
This one i need, getting a tattoo next week thanks for this!
Nice! No problem :)
You should generally keep a new tattoo out of the sun for a few weeks. Takes MONTHS for tattoos to fully settle beneath the skin.
TIP‼️‼️ get a tattoo a few months b4 summer 😀
Yesssss either spring, or fall is the best time to get a tattoo!
Dumb question but can you apply sunscreen, protect the tattoo, and still get tan?
to be honest, i wouldnt even recommend tanning at all. i actually made a new video about this topic. check it out ruclips.net/video/1z4nlwLB5_o/видео.htmlsi=-fwg29GU8Bce4vFp
I’m trying to get a tan and I have fully heal tattoos what sunscreen do you recommend for tattoo care?
Any sunscreen with spf 50 or higher is the best
Bro , thank you for the advice, but how often i should put my sun cream over my tattoo when i am outside
Omg look at you without all your tatts!!!! I like you all tatted up
If I get a forearm tattoo this summer, would 4-6 weeks be enough time for it to heal before any prolonged sun exposure?
Oh yeah it would absolutely be enough time :)
@@EvolveINK Thank you. I may be getting a forearm tattoo this weekend and I'll be out in the sun quite a bit beginning in September.

sensible advice
Thank you haha 😂 hope you enjoy the content
I have been thinking about getting that silk hydration hawaiian tropic sunscreen, what are your thoughts on it after some use?
It worked really good for me. I used it for quite some time!
@@EvolveINK ok sounds great, is this particular one water resistant or should I go with the sports variation?
Sports variation!
I see some sleeves on Amazon for uv protection…. Can I put that on a brand new tattoo to protect my arms from the sun???!!
I wouldn’t really recommend it. Those sleeves can be really tight on your new tattoo. I’d recommend checking out this video here! It gives you some Insight on tattoos and the summer ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
How do you know when it's safe to use sun cream on a healing/healed tattoo and rely on that rather than clothing to protect it from the sun.
Typically when your tattoo is done peeling. Here is a update summer tattoo video! ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
@@EvolveINK thanks. I think I'm nearly there. Will give it a few more days to be sure.
Thanks man
No problem! Hope you enjoyed the content!
Do i need to cover it up, even if its a cloudy day? Or during the evening, when the sun is down?
I would recommend covering it regardless or applying a moisturizing sun screen. I have a updated summer tattoo video! Check it out ruclips.net/video/qwiR5hqpQE0/видео.html
can you apply an unscented hypoallergenic sunscreen, say, 5 days after getting a very small tattoo ?
You want to wait for the tattoo to be fully healed first. If it actually small, it should heal in a few days
Look I work outside on the beach all day.Will that be a problem?? I will use sun cream and all protections but is there be some issue or?
Sand can be a issue for sure. Try to keep it away from the sun and sand as much as you can
How to protect my half sleeve tattoo if im working on the beach 8 hours a day with constant contact with the sun
Is sunscreen enough?
If the tattoo is healed, use sun screen and for extra protection I’d recommend wear some light fitting clothes. If it’s healing it’s gonna be even tougher because you gotta watch out for the sun and the sand!
im riding a motorcycle with my new tattoo. but im on jacket. is that okay?
if it’s a small tattoo, can i use a proper bandage on it when going to the beach etc
Well you need a tattoo to breath to properly heal. They do sell breathable bandages but you should really try to keep it out as long as you can
Hi! I'm getting my 2nd tattoo on my back done in June ( my birthday treat to myself) what's the best way to heal? I work from home, I'm a woman so I wear a bra....help
Back tattoos are a pain to heal lol. I recommend using saniderm for that.
So the main jist is going in the water is a no go and to always try and block it from the sun whether with clothes or some form of sunblock? Seems relatively easy enough
Yes. Super easy to do, but overlooks often lol
ManlyManTv but you can’t put sunscreen on a healing tattoo correct ?
I have an Aveeno Intense Relief Overnight Cream which I use as a daily moisturizer and use like 2-3 times a day. If I get this sunscreen moisturizer in the video, how do you recommend using both? The sunscreen moisturizer after the Aveeno one or?
I only will apply the moisturizer when I go outside to protect my tattoos. So just use it if you know you’re gonna be out in the sun.
ManlyManTv so even just walking from my car in the parking lot to inside work but covering it up will be fine too right? I don’t have to apply the sunblock if that’s the case?
Hey I’m getting a tattoo in sept 1st, and I work outside all day. How do I go about cleaning it and from sweat. Thanks
Great question! Try to keep it out of the sun as much as you possibly can. Or wear a light weight long sleeve shirt. Once it heals make sure you apply sun screen on the tattoo like I recommended on the video. Good luck!
Watched all this to hear use sunscreen wow
Hi, I just got a new tattoo (6 days) but Im going to the beach now. Will covering it clothes will do? Btw im planning on not soaking in the beach
Hello! Covering it can help but with that being said, the sand on the beach can be really harmful to your tattoo. I personally wouldn’t go to the beach with a new tattoo while it is healing 😅

Hey bro I work tomorrow in the sun constantly and I just got a new tattoo so what do I do like do I buy a bandage or what ?
did it fade much?
Did the sun do anything to it?
results?

So is it okay to tan at a beach with a tattoo that’s a week old with sunscreen over it but just not go in the water?
No... keep out of the sun for like 3-4 weeks. If your tanning outside wrap up the location of your ink and you will fine. But don't expose the tattoo to light or hotub.. beach, etc.

its traditional black patchwork style. So I dont want to fade obviously.
Did you end up using normal sunscreen and wearing tshirt?
@@bjaydenn5235 i ended up wearing long sleeve clothes haha, but since getting more tattoos, i was over stressing, it really isnt a big deal either way
Make sure it’s sweat and water resistant also
Absolutely!
Can I mow my yard with a week old tattoo kinda worried about it
Is that sunblock unscented?
this one i dont think is scented but i still wouldnt recommend applying sunscreen to a brand new tattoo.
Do I need sunblock underneath my shirt after tattoo healed?
I do. Because UV rays can still go through shirts lol
What can I do if I’m working and I have to work outside and I sweat?
That's my problem
What about sweating??
Sweating is really bad for a tattoo. It can irritate the crap out of it. Try to avoid that as much as possible
i got my tattoo 2-3 days ago is it alright to go to the beach, not go in the water and cover my leg (location of my new tattoo)
You need to be extremely careful when it comes to the sand and the sun. Those with both destroy your tattoo!
So as long as I put sunblock on it then its fine?
Yes! The sun is one of the worst killers to tattoos lol
I just got a tattoo and I’m not aloud In water or in sun for 2 weeks
Yes😕
During the summer when my tattoos are fully healed, how many times a day do I use the sun lotion?
Once that tattoo is fully healed, I always recommend applying sun screen if you are going outside. You always want your tattoos protected so they are always looking nice!
if you've done some reading on skincare, it's SUPPOSED to be applied every 2 hours lol, it isnt very effective after
How can I protect a new (so not healed) tattoo when it's 30+ degrees out like, are there cover ups to cover just the tattoo that will work (like special foils or sth)?? i can't imagine having to wear long trousers for four weeks straight just for a 5cm diameter tattoo on an ankle!
you figured it out?
I have a friend who got his tattoo 2 days ago and he been in the river and pool for 2 days, exposed to chlorine how do you treat it ? Genuinely asking for a friend please answer if you guys know how to fix it or heal it !!
he good?
You can actually die from a river infection or too much chlorine entering your wound. I agree with the guy above me, is your friend still alive?
what if you have a 5 day old tattoo and went outside for 10 minutes and now my tattoo is red and very itchy? please help im dying over here.
you might have a tattoo infection. id go get it checked out
i got a pretty big thigh tattoo last friday and the peeling seems to be almost done, when would be a safe time to go to the beach? and how would i tan with a new tattoo
Get some bandages to go around it. Sun will damage the tattoo heavily.
Do you still put on sunscreen during fall and winter?
Not so much h less it’s a warmer day and your tattoos are out in the sun. Other then that if you’re covering it wil clothing I wouldn’t worry about it
Thought I was watching the boy in the striped pajamas

@@Yonas2020 same here dude. I stepped out of the shop to walk to my car, and I immediately felt the rays when they hit my shoulder. It was super noticeable
I just noticed this too, i think its cuz our skin is still tender from the tattoo so it immediately burns when the sun touches it
@@ceez3317 yup. They say it only takes 2 weeks to heal. False, more like 4 weeks because the new skin at 2 weeks is upper fragile and delicate. You might be able to swim after 2 weeks and have no infections but the sun will burn it easy at that point still

Studies show it is lol

But ligjt
Can i expose my tattoo to the sun after 1month and be sure it doesnt get ruined
No matter how old your tattoo is the sun will always ruin it without protection
@@EvolveINK but if i use sunscreen?
@@_2wavy938 sunscreen helps protect it but the sun will always damage tats I guess

After your tattoo is fully heal. Gotta wait 😖
Can I moisturize the tattoo then do a spray sunblock that’s 100+
You can yes, but I feel like adding too much will clog your pours. I would just stick to a moisturizing sunscreen. That works out best
@@EvolveINK really? every tattoo parlour that I have went to some big ones, and I was told absolutely not to put sunscreen on?
Did you see my loafers?
