Nothing... It only lasts 2 days.
It is because of them shaving you.

I don't really think that in my case was because of the shaving.
Everytime I get hurt it iches like hell. It's been like this since I was a kid. My mom always told me that this happens when the wound is healing.
My tattoo iched soo much... sometimes I thought I couldn't help it but scratch it with my sharp nails!!! hihi it was awful!!!
But when that little scab (is it called scab?? sorry... I don't know... my english is not that good) came off... it was fine.
While it was iching I used to smack it a little. It felt better! |

| putting some lubriderm on it will help soothe the ithching. But don't use it more than a couple times a day if your'e still healing,and use thin coats. |

Yeah, Lubriderm hand lotion, the unscented kind, will help alot. Make sure you only use a drop or two, depending on the size of your tattoo, and rub it in gently, leaving no film on the top of your skin. And then think about something else..  |
