Why it worked

The video uses a relatable and humorous approach to a common experience (tattoo healing) by highlighting the creator's forgetfulness and slight neglect of aftercare, which resonates with viewers who have gone through similar situations.

Summary

The creator documents their tattoo healing process over several days, from day 1 to two weeks after. They initially express concern about washing the fresh tattoo and later question if it's time to moisturize, before realizing they had forgotten about something related to the healing process.

Structure

1Day 1: Fresh tattoo is a wound
2Day 1: Importance of washing
3Day 2: Skipping washing
4Day 5: Questioning moisturizing
52 weeks later: Forgetting about something
