A few days after getting the tattoo made, you are likely to experience peeling and, in some of the cases, even a little scabbing. Unless in excess, scabbing is normal after getting a tattoo. All you have to do is apply warm moist compresses to the scabs, 2-3 times in a day, for about 5 minutes at a time.
Showering and gently pat-drying your tattoo is fine, but continued exposure to water can damage the tattoo. Avoid hot tubs, saunas, and soaking in the tub for at least a week while the tattoo heals. Exercise can cause friction and depending on where your new tattoo is, that movement may slow the healing or not allow it to heal properly. As far as sun exposure goes, the sun will fade a tattoo over time.
