Tattoo aftercare

Do not remove the bandage for one to two hours.

With clean hands, bring a small amount of soap to lather and gently wash your tattoo, but do not scrub.

Rinse thoroughly, and then pat dry, preferably with a lint free towel.

Avoid soaking your tattoo.

Aquaphor is our recommended ointment to heal the tattoo. Apply a THIN layer 2-3 times per day for the following 5-10 days.

The formation of scabs is normal during the healing process, but it is IMPERATIVE that you do not pick them! This will lead to discoloration and scarring.

Avoid chlorinated water, found in pools and spas, and direct sunlight or tanning beds.

Once your tattoo has healed, exposure to sun is okay, but to keep the colors as bright as possible it is recommended that you use sunscreen with a high SPF protection number.
