You never want to replace the bandage! Not sure what your tat artist told you to do but what we usually do is leave the bandage on for about 1-2 hours after the tattoo, then take a shower and wash the tattoo with antibacterial soap. About an hour after that start using an unscented lotion like lubriderm or what I prefer is baby aquaphor. It's helped all of my tattoos heal faster and brighter.
