Hey /fit/ fags.I'm going to get some tattoo work done this weekend. I've been steadily working out 5 nights a week for the past 3 months. How long should I wait before heading back to the gym and working out the area I get the tattoo on (upper back/shoulder area)?I've heard a few days/weeks. Any precautions I should take to prevent the ink from spreading/stretching before it heals up? General advice for a tattoo newb?Here's a Bunny to soften you fags up.
enjoy your years of regret
Ask the tattoo artist, but I'd say wait 5 days before doing any exercise that will result in movement of the shoulder or the back being activated.You could probably do leg press, cardio, and a few other things within a day or two.
The tatoo is on your skin, so i deduct it doesn't matter what happens down there.
>>314228it can crack leaving gaps in the ink and you will have to go back and have it touched up for more $
wait about a week... I have a bunch of tattoos, and they all look great... I always wait a week and it turns out fine... most of the scarring is done by then
