I have two tattoos and i was wondering the same thing. Once they are completely healed, take a bath like you normally would. I dont scrub HARD on my tattoos but i do run a loofa over them. The harder you scrub, the more of a chance you have at dulling the colors in your tattoos. But note that tattoos do fade with time. To keep then bright and fresh, after showering i put a little vitaman E oil over then and rub it in. You can do lotion, or anything that moisturizes. Make sure to ALWAYs put sunscreen over them when you are out in the sun. Getting a sunburn over your tattoos will make then fade 10 times quicker than normal. The last thing you want over your tattoos are pilling from sunburn, sun blisters, or any kind of scarring!
Hope that helps!

Yes - Once the tattoo is fully healed (no longer sensitive) using a puff to lather up will be just fine.

Yes, it should be healed up fine by now. Just obviously dont scrub like a demon, there's a limit to what any skin can take!

The tattoo isn't going anywhere. You just need to be careful not to peel scabs or tear the surface, which will lead to scarring.

If its healed, go ahead.
I exfoliate and scrub my skin all the time and never had a problem with my tats looking weird.

well after two months you should be able to scrub away. it is permanent so it is embeded in your skin by now.
