TATTOO AFTERCARE

We’ve provided these helpful aftercare instructions to ensure the health of your tattoo. Healing normally occurs within 1 to 2 weeks.

Following these tattoo aftercare instructions will help to ensure its vibrance and quality as it heals. Please avoid exposing it to direct sunlight.

STEP 1

About 4 hours after receiving your tattoo, remove the bandage and do not re-bandage it. In some cases, tattoos are covered with saniderm film and your tattoo artist will instruct you on how long you should keep it on.

STEP 2

Wash hands thoroughly prior to touching your tattoo for any reason.

STEP 3

Using a mild fragrance-free soap, gently wash the tattoo, removing any crust, dirt, or debris and pat dry with a clean cloth or towel. Repeat twice daily, but no more than 3 times as it may dry out your tattoo.

STEP 4

Apply a small amount of ointment to tattoo for the first 4 days. Once the tattoo begins flaking, switch to a fragrance-free, alcohol-free lotion. Apply 2 to 3 times daily in a thin coat. Just enough to make the tattoo appear shiny.

STEP 5

Continue this regiment until the tattoo is fully under the skin.
