That's it, we took the plunge, and we already dream of strutting with our sexy tattoo. Before, we will have to wait two months, the time that the skin heals completely. And we can finally roll mechanics and expose our work of art to all eyes.
Sun, UV and showers damage tattoos
But day by day, the tattoo loses its luster . In question ? The sun . If it is necessary to flee absolutely during the healing period, even beyond, the sun has an impact: it can alter the contours and the colors (especially the lighter ones). Ultra-violet rays also abuses the tattoo since they help to destroy the ink, just like the daily washings that use the intensity of the drawing ... A fatality? Not really. To limit the impact of external factors on our tattoo, we adopt a simple and effective beauty routine.
