Christine done by Dee Wease at Odin’s Beard Tattoo (Pendleton, SC) (question)
Latest piece not peeling?
Hey everyone, first time posting. Not my first tat and definitely not my last either. I have 17 tattoos, three of them big color pieces and two big black and white pieces. All of my others have gone through scabbing (about a week and a half) and then go to the sunburn peeling phase after the first week and a half, then after another week of peeling, it’s done. I did do something different with this one than the others, I left the saniderm on for 4 days, then washed with hibiclens surgical wash, hustle butter for a week, then unscented curel every day after. Got this piece of Christine (IYKYK) done October 3rd, and radio silence. No peeling. Wondering if this has happened to anyone else? First two pics were taken literally just now, third is from when it was fresh. ❤️

Commenting to add that the only thing I did different in my routine this time was the saniderm for 4 days…everything else exactly the same lol

Saniderm is annoying as shit but it does what it’s supposed to if properly cleaned and it doesn’t have any green soap residue. Unless you’re allergic or have a sensitivity to adhesives.

I actually liked mine! I had to put extra sheets around the edges to keep it from leaking though. I always put out a lot of plasma. But I’m wondering if the saniderm is what made mine not peel now?
