I know there probably isn't a way to swim when I've just had my tattoo touched up but I figured I'd ask just in case.

I got my tattoo touched up yesterday and on Monday I'm going to be house-sitting a house with a pool for three weeks. I know it would've been smarter to just wait and have the touch up done after, but right after the three weeks I'm going on a volunteering trip to Sri Lanka and I'd rather worry about it healing properly here than there.

It seems like a shame not to be able to use the pool over half the time I'm there, does anyone know of some way to protect the tattoo so that I could still go in the water? I know it's not likely, but any suggestions are appreciated.

I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but the tattoo is a small script tattoo that spans across my collar bones, with a large symbol on the right just in the cleft by the shoulder. I got the faded bits in the script filled in, and I changed the colour of the entire large symbol from blue to purple, so that one was basically completely re-done.

Maybe you could wear a tee and just chill in the shallow end? It's not awesome, but if you're that determined to be in the water... :/

Go to your local dive shop and buy a dry suit that should work.

This is why we do not do free touch-ups at our shop. We charge twenty bucks. It's not the money, it's the point. I live by a lake and everyone has a pool. Everyone feels they are going to suffer so badly if they can't swim.
