When can i go in salt water(ocean) after my tattoo?

Question

i got a tattoo almost 2 weeks ago. and it is done peeling now so when can i go back in the ocean.. is my tattoo readdy_

Answer 1

no way! wait a whole month at least. it's so not worth it to mess up a tattoo for a swim.

Answer 2

3-4 weeks is usually the time frame given. But if your tattoo is a decent size, or if it's coloured or intricate then 5-6 weeks for swimming in the pool. A month if it's saltwater. Don't forget the sunscreen :)

Answer 3

you need to wait about a month before completely submersing your tattoo in water, salt water and pool chemicals can get into the tattoo and **** up the ink, even if it's done peeling.
