After you get your tattoo, during the healing process, you can expect it to peel. A colored scab of the tattoo will peel off and the tattoo will be left underneath, so don't freak out if it looks like your tattoo is falling off in your bed, or anywhere on your clothes. But you can certainly expect it to peel.
