My fresh tatt(some color work) of 10 days is doing exactly what it's supposed to do. Healing and peeling and stuff. The dang thing woke me up at 5 am itching like mad! I finally got up and put an icepack on it for about 5 mins. It still itched but I was able to get back to sleep. Yes, I put lotion on to keep it from getting dry and following all my aftercare instructions. So I guess my question is: Has anyone else found relief with an ice pack for itchy tatts? My back tatt was not this complicated...lol And no, I DO NOT scratch..I slap.

I have never heard that (with ice packs). My tattoo peeled and cracked and didn't feel good but it never woke me up. My husband is covered in tatts when he itched we always slathered it in lotion and that helps. The itching is just a drying out of your skin.
