How can I treat scabs on tattoos?

I don't want to mess up the tattoo itself.

Lubricate tattoo multiple times a day with a lotion (like Vaseline Intensive Care)... the scabs will slowly begin to heal... Do NOT pick or rub them off!

Well you should definitely not pick it off. Use a good quality tattoo lotion to keep it moisturizer until it heals up. Contact your tattoo shop to see what they recommend you use.

There are supposed to be scabs. Just keep putting whatever the artist recommended to you on the tat, and wait for the scabs to come off on their own. If it seems dry, use petroleum jelly. Keep it moist. Don't scratch or scrub it.
