Bag it

[Andys]

that commercial would be hysterical to watch

I actually never thought of how plastic wrap is used so much why doesnt a company make something that would work better because it was designed for tattoos

[JeffRoTully]

If it leaks aren't you screw'd?

Seriously, of your ink is healing and you want to put a bag on it, you might as well swim without. Your ink is gonna get wet from the sweat and infected depending on how long. Bacteria feeds on open wounds, dark, wet, moist areas. Covered tatt is a breading ground for bacteria. Just skip the pool. You wont die. Or, plan your tatts round winter and fall so they will be ready by spring and summer.

I never heard that one before. Cool.

Don't bag your tatt!! Really?! Even the artist tells you to not keep it covered for more than 2 hours after tattooing. The poster above said it correctly. It needs to breathe. Covering it, bagging it, causes it to suffocate and open a breeding ground for infection. Just skip swimming, period.

Bag it. Just made me laugh.

Never bag your tatt! Just keep the plastic on for a few hours then wash and moisturize. Nothing more! If you can't stay out the pool, don't get tattooed!!
