Tattoo goo and other aftercare products. Help?

Hey guys, I just got my 6th tattoo on Friday. I have had 4 different artists for my tattoos and each one told me something different for aftercare information. I have tried A&D, coco butter, and tattoo goo. I bot a bottle of tattoo goo after my last tattoo (3 days ago). This is the first tattoo that my new artist has gave me, and he told me to only put a thin layer of tattoo goo on about 2 to 3 times a day. I have noticed that tattoo goo rapidly speeds up the healing process but I have also noticed since it is not as thick as A&D, coco butter, or vaseline, my tattoo tends to dry out a lot quicker. My artist told me that it is not good to keep the tattoo smothered so it will be able to breathe. I know I should trust him but I just wanted some other opinions. I also read that it's good to use tattoo goo for about 3 or 4 days, then switch to unscented lotion, any thoughts on that? Well anyway thank you for your time. Hopefully after my 7th tattoo I'll finally have a reliable aftercare procedure lol.
