Cross-contamination occurs when gluten-free foods come into contact with foods that contain gluten. It can happen during the manufacturing process, for example, if the same equipment is used to make a variety of products. Some food labels include a may contain statement if cross-contamination is likely.
After getting a tattoo, swimming must be avoided until the skin has stopped peeling and all scabs have fallen off. For most people, this means waiting a minimum of two weeks.
I was told 4 weeks, but I think as long as the scabbing is gone it should be alright. I got in my hot tub 2 1/2 weeks after and all is well. FROM AN ARTIST... water is a natural healer and you should NEVER get into water before your tattoo is healed. It will cause your piece to heal faster than it should. Wait until it is healed and it has sunk into your skin before you get into water.
