Is it safe to use a natural tanner on tattoo?

Question

I got my tattoo almost 30 day ago. I was wondering if I can use Jergens natural glow foaming self tanner. Will it mess with my tattoo or will it make it fade? I just want to be safe and should I wait till its been 30 days after I got it done? Hope I don't sounds too confusing.

Answer 1

tanning in a bed or too much sun will cause the tattoo to fade. tattoos usually heal within a few weeks it should be fine to put this 'lotion' on

Answer 2

There really isn't much you can do to save it, except cover the tattoo, but then you'll have discoloration around the tattoo from where you tanned. Also keep in mind that all tattoo's fade despite the fact if you tan or not. The best way to keep up a fading tattoo is to have it touched up. Most guys I know do free touch up on tattoo's they did for life. I have had several touch ups. I just give a tip for their time.
