Hii..
I got my first tattoo on the top of my left foot friday night and now its starting to get itchy...really bad! I've been using tons of lubriderm [my tattooist suggested lubriderm and not a&d or neosporin] and cleaning it with antibacterial soap 3 times a day. So I was just wondering is it normal for it to get itchy couples days later? thanks=]

this is a normal part or the healing process i must urge you do not scratch as some of the others have said pat it
do not use alot of creams or onitments.
if you still are concerned and have the time go back to the tattoist and ask if there is anything else you can use it may be the cream you are using.

Its normal for tattoos to itch when they heal. Don't use too much lotion or you can ruin the color of your new tattoo. Good luck!

Tattoos itch when they heal, it's normal, just don't scratch.
Also, don't use too much lotion, over-moisturizing your tattoo can ruin it.
