![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My own tattoo artist explained to me that because the ink is not the same as regular ink, it is much harder to tattoo the skin which she also explained was why she had to continue poking me in spots she had already drawn on more than once because the ink would not take on my skin, this is something that should be stated prior to anyone receiving this tattoo. Having a tattoo that has not healed in 3+ months was never told could be a possibility. The ink situation really needs to be relooked at and Ephemeral needs to stop advertising that this is the same process as any regular tattoo, as the ink itself is not the same and can cause such a reaction that people are not made aware of. This pain itchiness, and inflammation has now continued 3+ months. I payed for this tattoo but did not receive what I expected and was advertised. Im now on my 15th week and not only have I not had improvements but the tattoo is so raised and itchy that I've had to see a dermatologist who has assured me that this is not common and that the tattoo should not be looking like this 15 weeks in, considering all of my other tattoos have healed properly in less than a fraction of the time. My tattoo has itched nonstop and has been so inflamed and hot to touch from the 3rd day I got it. Despite getting tattoos before, this was twice as painful as any tattoo, due to the ink not penetrating as efficiently as regular tattoo ink, making my artist have to go over my tattoo multiple times when it was already an open wound as my artist themselves stated. i just don’t really like the fading process since there is a long period of time where it looks like i have a bad tattoo since it’s fading lol.I got a temporary tattoos that is meant to last **** months from this company. I love the concept of it since i wouldn’t want tattoos when i’m older, but think they r super cute now while i am young. ephemeral tattoo came out now saying that the tattoo might not disappear in that 9-15 month timeline, but they guarantee it will be gone by 3 years max. it was super gradual and even now 11 months since i got it it’s all still there, just faded a bit more. i think i noticed visible fading about 4-5 months after having it. after about a month i would say it was pretty much fully healed!Īs for the fading process…. after that i just let it heal by washing it gently and applying lotion that they provided. i rly didn’t want anything basic or boring… smthg cute and a bit odd like me hehe.įor the next 4 days i had to have a hydrocolloid patch on the tattoos that i cleaned and switched halfway through. i decided to get an orangutan (my fav animal) and a calamansi (my fav fruit). When i was thinking about what i wanted to get i really said idgaf cause i knew it wasn’t gonna last forever. i would say getting the one on my wrist hurt more since it is a more sensitive area! i got one right above my elbow and one on my wrist. we figured out sizing and placements and then went ahead with the tattoo! i would be lying if i said it didn’t hurt, but there was a bit of pain as expected lol. I submitted my tattoo designs/ideas before hand and my tattoo artist had a few sketch ideas ready for me when i arrived. The interior is super cute and aesthetically pleasing!! i love the fact that they give snacks and water to make sure ur blood sugar isn’t too low before getting ur tattoo! if u have never heard of Ephemeral Tattoo, they offer real tattoos that will eventually fade!! this is great if u know u don’t want to have a tattoo for ur whole life, or want to try out a design/location for a bit before u get a “traditional” tattoo. About 11 months ago i got the opportunity to get a made-to-fade tattoo from Ephemeral Tattoo at their Los Angeles location.
