It is not uncommon, but it should be more like seepage than actual bleeding. It also tends to be a problem more on the legs and feet due to the blood circulation. If you are putting too much ointment on it it will tend to seep longer. When you put your ointment on use it like a moisturizer, completely rubbed in, not thick on top of the skin, i recommend a&d ointment, for the first 3 to 4 days only.

No it is not normal but it is not necessarily bad or unheard of. Just like scabbing is not normal but occurs.
Typically, after the initial couple hours or so with a bandage on it there is no more bleeding after it is removed and washed.
If the bleeding is just an "appearance" of blood, just keep it washed off and sparingly apply whatever aftercare product you were instructed to use. If still oozing you need to wear clean but old clothing so as not to ruin good clothes.

yes it is normal for it to bleed up to two days after you get it, don't put vasalie on it as it can cause the ink to draw out. use neosporine or a&d for the first three days then use unscented lotion to keep it moist utill it is done peeling. should be about a week to two weeks. do not pull off the scabbs they will flake naturally and stop later, if you are still bleeding after two days go back to the artist, also if it is peeling for more than two weeks go see them just to check on it. good luck with the process and get used to a new addiction

It should stop bleeding within 24 hours.
It may weep for up to 2 days. Wash it ,
apply the A&D, follow the after care instructions.
Protect your investment.

Some people bleed the day after. I don't my husband dose. You will be fine take care of it with dial soap and A&D for the first 3 days the go from A&D to lotion. You will be fine.

It is.
But it shouldn't bleed too much
It depends on the size of the tattoo
if it's huge and heavily coloured.
Mines only writing and stars along my lower stomach so that actually didn't bleed.

Very little, because it is still in the healing process. But if it is bleeding continuously and alot then you have to seek medical help.

it shouldn't be bleeding a lot, but it you knock it or rub it the wrong way then it might. or if it started to scab and the scab was rubbed off or something. as long as its not gushing blood and its not huge and red and swollen then I think it should be ok. keep it clean and put the ointment on it.

a bit-try not to scratch it. Put vaseline on-keeps it supple- and helps it to heal. xx
