Tattoo fallout after second skin?
Heya I’m still new to tattoos so feel free to educate me.
Recently got a tattoo done a week ago overseas. Got it done 3 days before I left to go back home so my artist applied a second skin and told me to remove it after 3-4 days. I left it on until I got back (day 4) and removed it carefully in the shower.
I’ve now noticed it almost appears to have faded or the ink has fallen out potentially, as it looks really patchy.
I did notice after removing the second skin there was almost a layer of ink on the plastic so I’m not sure if the artist has told me to remove it prematurely?
I’ve been keeping with aftercare religiously as well so not sure if it was just badly done in the first place or if I’ve pulled the plastic off too soon ( as per artists instructions)
Either way will likely get it touched up but just curious what’s happened.
