Can you swim with second skin?
Breathable bandaging, also known as second skin, is the most surefire way to waterproof a tattoo. But even with it on, you'll want to avoid completely submerging your freshly-inked skin in a pool or the ocean. Soaking an unhealed tattoo is a huge no-no and can lead to infection or permanent damage to the tattoo.
Will soaking a new tattoo fade it?
Soaking your new tattoo could also cause fading and discoloration. Chlorine and salt water are especially hard on fresh tattoos, because both can leach ink from a tattoo, making the color less vibrant. Swimming can also dry out your skin and prolong healing, leading to more itching, flaking, and scabbing.
How to cover a tattoo to swim?
Apply a waterproof bandage to cover your ink while in water: "If it isn't possible to wait until the tattoo is fully healed before swimming, then use a waterproof dressing such as Saniderm and limit the amount of time in the water and with the dressing on as much as possible," King says.
