TATTOO Aftercare Tips

Use these aftercare tips to keep your tattoo fresh and vibrant.

Remove bandage no sooner than 4 hours.
Wash area gently, but well, removing any blood or ointment. Use a mild soap and warm to hot water using only your fingers. Rinse well to remove all soap. BLOT DRY, DO NOT RUB. No rubbing until tattoo is completely healed.
Allow the tattoo to air dry for about 15 minutes, DO NOT apply another bandage
Begin applying a VERY THIN film of aftercare ointment or lotion as often as 3 times a day in order to keep your tattoo moist. It is very IMPORTANT that your tattoo does not appear wet and gooey from the ointment. This process will prevent a scabbing from forming.
Your tattoo should peel like a sunburn. If a scab should form it is very important not to pick or tamper with it. It will flake off naturally in several days.
ALWAYS keep your tattoo clean. DO NOT soak in a tub, jacuzzi or pool. Always blot dry until tattoo is healed.
Your tattoo MUST be protected from the sun while it is healing. After the tattoo is healed we recommend the use of a good sun block.
We recommend the use of the aftercare ointment or lotion for 3-4 days, then switch to a good quality, fragrance free, skin moisturizer for about 2 weeks until your tattoo is healed. Your tattoo will remain bright, crisp, and clear if you take care of your skin. Remember… your tattoo can only look as good as your skin…. so continue to moisturize daily.

Basic aftercare for body piercings:

**Your aftercare is the most important part of your piercing.**

Wash hands thoroughly prior to cleaning or touching your piercing for any reason.
Wash your new piercing once a day with a mild unscented soap and apply a piercing saline or saline wound wash 3 to 6 times daily.
Avoid pools, baths, and other unhygienic bodies of water during the healing process.
For more detailed instructions refer to the aftercare sheet handed out at the shop.
