    Hey Guys,

    Got a bit sun burned yesterday and I’m booked in to get a tattoo Thursday morning. Just wondering should I cancel or will it be okay? The sun burn isn’t too bad and should be reduced by then but not sure what the protocol is as it’s my first one, thanks guys :)

    That's gonna hurt like an absolute motherfùcker on sunburn. Embrace it. When a tattoo is fresh on the best way to describe how it feels is like sunburn so it'll hurt a bit more tattooing sunburn. Best thing to do is ask your tattooist but I would probably just grin and bear it. Best of luck.

    Slap on after sun cream twice a day, four days to recover should be plenty, just try not to get anymore on top of it :D

    Just keep moisturising your skin. You should be fine by Thursday.

    Thanks for your reply guys! Yeah really looking forward to getting it and don’t really want to cancel but needs be I’ll cancel. It’s more for the skin recovery or stuff like that more than the pain of it,. Just want it to turn out okay :)
