Shaving too early- anxious about it
Hi all,
This is my tattoo right after I shaved and put lotion on.
I just shaved my tattoo for the first time in 4 weeks and am super nervous I shaved it too early. I read that 3-4 weeks healed should be fine to shave but I'm just super nervous that I messed up.
For aftercare I dry healed and only put unscented lotion when it was super itchy. Just before shaving it was barely flaking at all (would only flake if I ran my hand over it with some pressure yk? ) so I assumed it was pretty much healed.
If I did shave too early and somehow opened up the skin does that mean I just have to keep it clean and do some more aftercare?
I'm really just looking for some reassurance it's fine lol
Thanks
