Depends on where your tattoos are doesn't it. If it's on your arms go to a sports store and buy sweat bands. No you do not need any ointments when you cover them up

yes you do need the ointment to keep it clean and the best thing for a newer tat when it needs to be covered up is a loose longe sleeve or wherever the tats at what ever you chose to cover it, it HAS TO BE LOOSE!!!!!!!!!

just get make up from cover girl make sure it matches your skin and cover it up, my mom does it all the time to cove up her tattoo, it works wonders, its better than having someone poop on you

You must use long and loose sleeves,if your tats are a bit new,use the ointment because it can damage it if overheat due to long sleeves covering it up.i have 8 tats and i had been already in your situation when my boss told me the same thing.But i used a long sleeve shirt and it went well till the tats got alright.

it do depends on your job and where you have the tat at if you can see them then I would wear something so they can see them.cause I have 7 tats and I work in the hospital and the only one you can see is the one on my forearm but most of the time I wear a labjacket so no one really don't see. but don't quit your job or anything dumb like that

i think you should consider what the striper told you to try. and maybe next time you might want to consider not getting a tatoo where it is visible. because if they are visible, most places will ask u to cover them up.

when tattoos are first done they should be covered loosely...NO tight sweatbands! dont apply make up to it yet to cover it if it is new as it could infect, also keep applying the ointment, you dont have to do it every time you cover it but make sure you apply it everyday and that you keep it clean and most importantly out of the ocean any swimming pools or the sun as these things can seriously fade your tattoo in the 1st 3 to 4 weeks after getting it done.
