Tattoo Peeling After 5 Days

I just got a tattoo and it’s somewhat peeling…?
I just got a tattoo 4 days ago, and now a small piece of it seems like it peeled away, and it looks faded. I’m doing everything the artist told me to.
I’m using Aquaphor (it says healing ointment and looks a bit like neosporin, so i hope its the right stuff, is it supposed to be a lotion?) and I’m putting it on at least 4 times a day.
When I take showers I put the antibacterial soap on it and let the water rinse it off, & washing the tattoo is usually for 3-5 minutes.
Am I taking my showers too long? They usually last about 30 minutes.. And am I using the right moisturizer?
Please help, I’m starting to freak out, but the artist said I should come back after it heals if I need a touch up..
it is normal. The tat won’t bee a vibrant or color-full after the scab comes of, but it will look better. just use the lotion ( I prefer straight vitamin e lotion) as directed and it will be fine. Make sure you do not pull any of the scab off, this may damage the tattoo and blur it.
