AFTERCARE

  • Keep the bandage on for 24 hours or up to two nights.

  • Wash hands with soap and water, then carefully peel off the bandage. 

  • Using hot water and antibacterial soap (do not use a washcloth) gently cleanse the tattoo and pat to dry.

  • Apply a small amount of Aquaphor or Vaseline twice a day.

  • Repeat the washing/ointment process for the first two days.

  • After the first two days, start applying a small amount of unscented lotion to moisturize the tattoo. 

  • Do not swim/use a hot tub/go in a sauna for at least two weeks as the tattoo heals.

  • If the tattoo itches, do not scratch it- just slap it!

  • After your tattoo has healed be sure to wear sunscreen if you go out in the sun.
