piercings
follow directions of the person who pierced it (if their a pro) remember to clean multiple times daily for a week then reduce frequency of cleanings
sugestions for quicker healing obtain aloe vera juice (from an actual fresh plant ) to cover the area after each cleaning this will promote healing
or a product called neosporin can be substituted in either case they will promote faster healing and provide antibacterial properties to prevent infection
tattoo's follow the same advice as above
with one important addition tattoo's are very sensitive to ultra violet light during the first few weeks to preserve the color of the new tattoo DO NOT expose it to the sun best reccommendation is that it remain covered for at least the firs week preferably for the first 3 weeks allowing full healing to occur then unveiling your new tat in all its full unfaded color glory
these are the things i have learned from friends girlfriends and five years in the navy
p.s. i do not have any tats or piercings
my paranoia does not permit such a easily traced item to become assoiated with me allowing me the option to change at any time and be as untraceable as possible (who said the navy still has my prints on file in their computer hhmmmm???
)
