How soon can you swim after getting tattoos?

Answer by  tessamalk (466)

As soon as you take the wrap off! That being said, it's a good idea to wait twenty-four hours first and an even better idea to wait a few weeks. The less chemicals your tat is exposed to, the better... and if you are going to go swimming, be sure to cover that pretty baby with sunscreen!

You should wait at least a few weeks until your tattoo is healed. It is important to take care of a new tattoo and follow your artists advice on care so you have the best long term result.
