hello everyone daniel yuck here thank
you all for tuning in today i appreciate
you today i would like to dive in and
show you all how i go about relieving
itching from fresh tattoos now within
this video if you see or hear anything
that you may have questions on please
i'm going to encourage you to drop a
comment down below and i'm going to do
my absolute best to assist you in the
best possible direction with that being
said let's go ahead and dive straight on
into this
so itching is completely normal during
the healing stages of a tattoo no matter
if it's a smaller tattoo or a larger
tattoo we're gonna experience some sort
of itching i personally have on all of
my tattoos the bigger the tattoo the
more itching i've experienced and it is
because the body is healing itself the
same way as it would any other wound so
again there's going to be some sort of
itching involved now what i go ahead and
do is i use a couple of things and there
is a secret weapon in which i'm going to
show you here in this video so you can
either use something along the lines of
bactine as i'm going to show you here so
for those who aren't familiar with
bactein this is what bactein looks like
you can use a bacteria to go ahead and
soothe the skin first and then you can
put a layer of thin lotion or a thin
layer of lotion over after and for me
personally for this demonstration i'm
going to be using the bacteria along
with the inky's ink lock as you can see
right here so stay with me i'm going to
share with you how i go about applying
the bacteria and ink log in a manner
that we can go ahead and provide instant
relief for any itching tattoo and the
secret weapon is textured gloves as you
can see this glove right here has
pyramids like embedded into the glove
and i use those textures of the glove to
gently glide over the tattoo
to provide instant relief for any
itching tattoo and i'm going to show you
in depth on how i actually go about
wiping a tattoo down that way we don't
over wipe and damage a healing tattoo so
if you are going to be getting a larger
size tattoo or really any tattoo at all
from a large size to a blackout small
tattoo i would recommend getting these
textured gloves prior to getting the
tattoo so that way you can have them and
pretty much repeat this process on your
end i will leave links for you in the
description below so you can check them
out let's go ahead and get into how i go
about actually providing relief for the
itching tattoo so as you can see i'm
going to start with the bacteria and
this is a fresh tattoo and it is
actually itching the client right now so
what i'm going to do is i'm going to
spray bactine all over it and i'm going
to pretty much saturate it and i'm going
to get my glove here and i'm going to
simply glide it i'm not applying any
sort of pressure or anything like that
i'm just simply gliding over the tattoo
so that way it provides a sense of
relief and instantly when i started
gliding over the tattoo the client felt
the instant relief
i personally choose to start with
bacteria first over lotion because
bactine has lidocaine which is also
going to numb and provide a little bit
more relief after we're done with this
process so that's why i choose to go
ahead and glide with bacteria first and
then ointment after allow me to show you
up close here so as you can see
everything's saturated with bacteria and
i'm only going to simply glide the
textures over the skin and this right
here is more than enough you don't have
to go fast you can go ahead and move it
in a manner that's comfortable for you
on your end and you just want to simply
go back and forth until you've reached a
desired point of comfortability i would
like to confirm here that i'm not by any
means approaching tattoo itching as if
we're scratching i'm simply using
textured gloves and gliding over the
skin
to provide a sense of relief that's all
that we are doing here and this is
effective this is more than enough i
just want to point out please don't go
in and fully apply pressure as if we're
scratching tattoos please don't scratch
your new tattoos that's all i'm trying
to say so let's get into the lotion now
as you can see i have the inky's ink
lock right here and you could apply
whatever you know is necessary for the
ratio and tattoo size you have on your
end i'm going to start with this size
amount right here and i'm going to work
it into the areas that are providing or
that are giving the most itch right now
which is this side and as you can see
all i'm doing is i'm just gliding it
over the skin
and the pyramids the textured gloves are
doing all of the work for me i don't
need to press down i don't need to do
any of that or anything crazy just
simply glide the glove over the skin
now of course you're going to want to
repeat this process applying lotion over
the entire tattoo because when the
tattoos are healing you want to have a
thin layer of lotion to keep it moist
you don't want to saturate or anything
crazy like that either just simply apply
a thin layer of lotion and you can
repeat this as necessary you don't want
to let your fresh tattoos get dry that's
kind of what we're trying to avoid here
now applying the lotion over the entire
tattoo side is how we basically finish
by now we should have some sort of a
sense of relief or we should have felt
some sort of relief along the way and i
hope that i can help you in that manner
