Aftercare
- Leave bandage on for 1-2 hours after procedure.
- Wash your hands with antibacterial soap, lather a small ammount in your palm and gently wash the tattoo.
- DO NOT SCRUB- rinse thoroughly, then pat dry with a clean towel.
- Apply a light coat of after care product - avoid petrolium based products that don't let the skin breathe. We reccomend an unscented organic lotion.
- Reapply aftercare product as needed approxmiately 4-5 times a day for the next 2-3 weeks until the tattoo is completely healed.
- Avoid soaking your tattoo in water until completely healed.
- Avoid brushing your tattoo against other surfaces.
- Scabs may form on the tattoo DO NOT SCRATCH OR PICK AT THEM. This could result in pulling ink from your tattoo or scaring. Consistantly applying lotion will help with itching, drying and cracking.
- DO NOT USE petroleum, lonolin or wax based products on your tattoo- these products are not designed for tattoos and tend to clog pores, attract debris,bacteria and will slow down the healing process. Let your tattoo breathe!
- Aviod swimming pools, spas, tanning and direct sunlight until the tattoo is completely healed.
- Once your tattoo is healed use a high SPF sunscreen (30+) at all times when exposing your tattoo to the sun. This will keep the sun from fading your tattoo and will help extend the life and vibrancy of your tattoo.
