I got a new tattoo... about the size of your balled up fist.... On my back on Tuesday... It has alot of shading in it and has just started to scab over now... I have a dinner function thingy to go to next Thursday and I am wear a dress that will show my tattoo... Should it be done scabbing by then?? Or should I by a top to go over it??

Just keep it moist with hand lotion, or bacitracin, and it'll be fine. Remember, a tattoo that is new and just healing generates twice the interest that an older one does! Don't sweat it, it'll be okay! Put a top on if the people that will be there are stuffy or judgemental. But I say, love me, accept my tattoos.

it depends on how quickly you heal but mine are usually finished peeling by the 10th day. they start on about day 5 and peel thru day 10 and continue itching for another 5-7 days. SO it is quite possible that you will be done peeling but still itching.

that will be about 9 day's right it should be okay maybe still a lil dry looking but it is up to you if it looks well enough to show off yet! maybe just grab a wrap to be on the safe side.

it should, but just as plan B, get an outfit that WILL cover it, and try putting lotion on it...thats what i was told to do, and it does help alot...good luck, hope you wont have to change ur outfit bc the tat, it would be cool to show it off..
