Will my tattoo peel or scab ?

Question

I got a small tattoo 3 days ago and it doesn't burn or itch like people have told me and the pain was not at all bad but I talked my friend and she told me that it's weird that my tattoo hasn't peeled yet because her's started to peel the 3-4 day my tattoo isn't even red anymore. Should I be worried ? Thank you :)

Answer 1

it doesn't peel until it scabs.

it doesn't start scabbing until a few days after.

don't worry it will scab and peel.

Answer 2

I would not worry. Everyone's skin is different and everyone has a different healing rate. My tattoo on my back didn't peel but the one on my ribs did. The only time to worry is if it oozes, starts to form deep pockets then peels. Always make sure it's not forming a staph infection.

Answer 3

Everyone heals differently. Its nothing to worry or even ponder over.



I've had my right arm tattooed, almost full coverage and it didn't scab. Its down to post tattoo care being done well and possibly the tattooist didn't use too much ink, so your body didn't need to get rid of excess ink by scabbing etc

Answer 4

Never have experienced this! But I don't think if tattoo could be peeled, But I am not expert.

Answer 5

All of mine scabbed and peeled but it really doesn't matter if it does or not.
