JT, my husband received a tattoo on his chest a few years ago, not his first either. He has 10 other tattoos. He went to a tattoo studio and his tattoo got “oatmeal” like too. He never experienced this before. He scabbed really bad, the tattooer was a beginner who didn’t have an apprentice. He was hired based on his ability to draw and his desire to tattoo. So, not everyone does an apprenticeship.The tattoo healed and it looks perfectly fine. Give the tattoo time to heal, don’t freak out too much. What has the guy said about that you did the tattoo on? It could have been the placement of the tattoo? Maybe where you did the tattoo didn’t need as much of a penetration as the others that you did on him. Did you use different ink this time? I am currently doing a large tribal piece on a guy’s arm and the Kuro Sumi black did not like his skin, so I switched to Iron Butterfly midnight black and it works much better. I have found that all ink is definitely different and so is everyone skin. Sometimes it may work other times it won’t. How is the tattoo now?
