How do you know if the colour has pulled out?

Question

Thanks for the answers to my previous question, not sure how to add this to it. May seem a daft question but would I be able to see this early (10 days since) if the colour has come out of my tattoo. Some of the black lines are very thin and look paler than the thicker bits.

Answer 1

let it heal then go to the artist for a retouch in the areas you have some concern about

Answer 2

the darker patches or where it seems thicker is proberly the scab forming over the wound and the paler and smoother bits would be where the scab has come off. If you lightly run your finger over the tattoo you may feel rough and smooth parts - the rough parts are the scab and the smooth parts are the healed skin. 10 days is still fairly early so I would give it at the most of a month even 6 weeks to properly heal, DONT RUB OR PICK AT THE SCAB no matter how itchy it is as you will end up with a patchy tattoo and that wont look good. Trust me Im talking from experience !! lol good luck and let us know how u go : ) p.s TATTS ROCK !!!!!!
