Is A & D: First Aid Ointment okay for tattoos?


I got a tattoo Saturday, the 8th, as a birthday present. It turned out great & it's one I've always wanted but at the place I got it done said just use A & D ointment. Well, at the store there was A & D that was supposed to be for diaper rash & then A & D: First Aid that seemed better for scars & such. I figured a tattoo is kinda like a scar in a way? So I got that but a friend said that the first aid type might speed the healing and mess it up or something? I'm not sure if that makes sense but he has one already so now I'm really nervous. Anyone know?

That is what I used several years ago and my tat is still great.

Call the place that you had your tattoo at and ask them to verify. Neither seem right to me.

yes

Use the Diaper rash kind i recently got one on my back amd thats what the studio gave me ...U dont want it to heal to fast and if your in the sun or tanning bed use sun screen on it as that will fade the tat
