no because it can irrate the skin and plus it would hurt your sunburn it wouldn't heal properly

Well, the sunburn has already irritated the skin but the peeling is what would hurt your new tattoo.....When a tattoo heals the top layer of skin comes off in a light scab...The DERMIS builds a new epidermis over the tattoo...If your sunburn peels before the dermis is ready it may lose much of it's ink, as well as taking a long time to heal...And, the pain factor would highly increase being tattooed over a sunburn..Hope this helps........B
