yep, the tattoo ink will bleed for the next few days. the first day is usually when most of it happens but you should notice some ink oozing or coming off on your clothes for about three days.

That is very normal, especially the larger the larger tattoo and the more color that is used. There is nothing to worry about. What I did was put on some extra cream that was given to me by the tattoo artist, and when that ran out i put on some neosporin which helped keep the tattoo in good shape and helped the tattoo heal. Remember that while getting the tattoo they have gone under the skin and it has caused some bleeding and you have to wait for the entire thing to heal. Actually the neosporin helps heal the skin and cures the bleeding and keeps it from getting any infections.

Yes it is. Wome of the ink will weep out for the first few hours. Just keep it clean like the artist told you to. Its also why they suggest that you come back in in 3-4 weeks to see if it needs touched up.

yes, but also allow it to get some air. you can take a shower or bath just be careful not to bump it, it will hurt. use A and D ointment for 3 days, then unscented loition until it's healed. never ever use vaseline it will draw the ink out. it will scab over, SO NO PICKING AT IT,just leave it alone. finacee' tattoo artist, i also have 10.

Yes, it is. Here's a good guide:

It includes in there:
As the tattoo heals, you will notice colored "flakes" coming off the tattoo. This is perfectly normal. Your tattoo is not "falling off". Be sure NOT to pick or scratch at these flakes, and let them fall off and heal on their own.

Yes , this is howcome you should ONLY have it bandaged when you leave the shop and/or run a chance of getting materials in it (machine shop).
You should allow your tat to get air - a ood amount of petroleum jelly is recommended - this will also allow you to expose the skin. You can heal in 3-5 days if you do that.

Yes keep it clean and use a petroleum free product to heal your tattoo such as fragrance free alchol free lotion...

You should not use vasoline as someone sugested, It can harbor germs thus causing infection.
