Yeah pretty much, I put it on about 3 or 4 times a day. When I woke up, around about lunchtime, when I got home from work then before I went to bed.

Nice tattoo mate.

I used for 2 weeks and by that time it was nice and healed.

I assume you are using Bepanthen.

Bepanthen is what a lot of other people here use. Its basically nappy rash cream but its perfect for tattoos.

Its just not as good as Bepanthen which is godly.

i don't think itll effect it that much, if at all... is it fragranced or anything? bepanthen is just really good for healing

Bepanthen was made to be mild for babies skin and to help deal with nappy rash. Nivea is used to soothe and moisturise not to help heal things.

i've got savlon at home if that's any better?

Bepanthen is better

i think he means while he doesnt have bepanthen should he use savlon instead of nivea, until he can get bepanthen.

Savlon would be better than nivea then yeah.

It's only a small one.. but it is my first..

Was done after work last night.. I'd dropped my drawing/doodle off earlier in the week.. but was still nervous going in.. wasn't sure what to expect and I've never been good with needles (slight understatement).. but after he started I wondered what I'd been getting myself worked up for.

Well happy with the result.. even if it is only ickle..

ic1male · 27 Jun 2009 at 10:40

I like it! Does the infinity loop bear any personal significance or was it just a doodle as you say?

mac1st3 · 27 Jun 2009 at 10:43

nice

i wanted to design my own, but i worried it would look ridiculous, but yours obviously went well
