If jeans rub on a month and a half old tattoo, will it ruin it or mess it up?

Question

I got my first tattoo about 6 or 7 weeks ago just above my underwear line and most of my jeans don't rub but the ones I have on now do, will it mess it up?

Answer 1

As long as it already scabbed over you will be ok.

Answer 2

Sounds like you're fine. However, in general the less it rubs against stuff the better in terms of fading. Since it's not going to be exposed to sun much (I'm guessing, unless you're at the beach a lot) fading shouldn't be much of an issue though.  

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

If the tattoo has already scabbed up and all the scabs have fallen off, your fine.  If your tattoo is still scabbing, or has scabs then you don't want to wear those jeans. Run your hand over the tattoo and you will be able to feel if it is smooth or if there are still some scabs.  

Answer 5

The rubbing wont hurt your tattoo !

Answer 6

Shouldnt do, if it has scabbed over and the scab has come off then it is fully healed.

I had a tat on my wrist and the movement of my wrist meant that the ink didnt take on certain parts, but i only discovered that when the scab came off so i think damage can only be done during the healing process (before the scab falls off)

Answer 7

doubt it. unless the jeans rub ya raw. But then again if they do that  then i wouldn't even bother wearing them.  :D

Answer 8

Unless your jeans rubbing messes up your skin some how....no.

Answer 9

It will be fine.  

Tattoos usually heal completely in 3 to 4 weeks, so you are definitely safe after 6 or 7 weeks.  

Answer 10

No it will be fine
