Tattoo After Care

The tattoo you have just received has been done under the strictest of sterile conditions, so please take the time to follow these instructions to ensure the best possible results:

*Small Tattoos*

Within 4 hours of receiving your new tattoo take the bandage off and soak the tattoo in a hot bath or shower for 10-15 minutes. This will pull all the fresh blood and plasma from the tattoo and decrease the chance of scabbing

*Large Tattoos*

For large pieces leave bandage on overnight then same steps as above*After your first bath; pat dry and DO NOT SOAK tattoo again until it is fully healed. STICK TO SHOWERS—-only.

*After every shower apply a thin layer of unscented lotion to your TATTOO. We recommend unscented Lotion. Reapply lotion one to two times daily, or when the tattoo gets dry but do not over do it with the lotion.*Do not expose your new tattoo to swimming pools, hot tubs, saunas, tanning beds or the sun while healing. This will WRECK YOUR TATTOO.

***NEVER SCRATCH OR PICK YOUR TATTOO***

DO NOT CHEAT WHILE HEALING YOUR TATTOO, IT’S THERE FOR LIFE. PROPER CARE DURING HEALING IS CRUCIAL FOR A TATTOO TO MAINTAIN ITS CLARITY AND BRIGHTNESS. TOUCH-UP’S ARE FREE FOR 6 MONTHS FOR JUNIOR ARTISTS BUT SENIOR ARTISTS MAY CHARGE A MINIMUM OF $40 OR MORE
