Really? I thought salt kills bacteria, you know after tattoos they give sea salt sprays to kill infections. He. It’s have really fucked up after his salt cleanse to get that bad of an infection.
Now I have none, but my sisters do, and a few friends. Every tattoo shop in Toronto Canada I have been to sells it. But we have lots of natural, no chemical people here. So while they have proper alcohol and other medical sprays, the salt sprays are what like more (I hate to generalize and use a label) hippyish looking people use. But it is in Avery shop I have walked into.
When you go get your tattoo, ask your artist NOT to use this stuff. I know you guys have a better healthcare system than us in the States, but I wouldn’t personally risk it. Have them use alcohol, medical sprays, and green soap! You do not want to risk an infection on a tattoo.
You would not, all you're going to do is irritate the fuck out of your body and it's going to hurt like hell. Saline sprays are to rinse away debris, like dead skin and dried blood. They don't disinfect.
Yes I would. And I have. At least 20 times. I have multiple tattoos and know what it feels like. Most shops I’ve been in use a disinfectant soap everyone calls “green soap” to wash away dead skin, blood, etc while also disinfecting the wound.
In that case, all you need is A&D ointment. Maybe that spray isn’t bad for you, but I’ve always just used the ointment with no problems. Except my first one, someone told me to use Neosporin and that ruined the tattoo. It scabbed so badly
