HEALING YOUR TATTOO

WHEN YOU GET HOME
  1. Remove bandage. You do not need to re-bandage.
  2. Immediately wash your tattoo with very warm water
    -Use only your hands. Don’t use any kind of washcloth or towel.
    -Use regular unscented soap (dial antibacterial is good, liquid soap only) & warm water.
    -Use very warm water, but not too hot. Don’t scald yourself.
  3. Dry the tattoo
    -Don’t wipe, just gently pat it dry with a clean, paper towel.  Never dry with bath towel.
  4. VERY IMPORTANT
    – Apply a THIN amount of ointment (A&D or Aquaphor) AND RUB INTO THE SKIN COMPLETELY up to 3 times a day
    -Stay away from the use of triple antibiotic ointments like Neosporin or Bacitracin. These are too strong and could fade the tattoo.
THE FOLLOWING DAYS
  1. You will continue to care for your tattoo this way every day for no more than the following 3 days, or until your tattoo begins to peel
  2. Once this happens, stop use of ointment and begin using a plain, scent free lotion like Lubriderm
    -Make sure you are applying a very thin layer, just as you did with your ointment. Your tattoo needs to breath.
    -You will continue to use the lotion 2 to 3 times a day for the next 2 weeks (IMPORTANT to not overuse).
GENERAL RULES FOR A NEW TATTOO
  1. NEVER PICK, SCRATCH, OR SLAP A FRESH TATTOO
  2. Keep tattoo covered while in the sun and use sunblock after it’s healed (about 2 weeks)
  3. Do not soak in sauna, steam, or tub
  4. Do not expose to chlorine swimming pools, lake, or beach waters.
  5. Remember that healing times will vary. So, if your healing is different than someone else you know, don’t worry.

​All of the artists here are experienced and we do guarantee our work as long as you follow our care instructions. However we do NOT guarantee tattoos on the neck, hands or feet. If you have any problems or questions, please feel free to contact your artist via email.

***For overnight healing of larger tattoos, remove the initial bandage and wash thoroughly as directed above.
Allow tattoo to dry completely before re-bandaging with a new, clean piece of saran wrap and secure with tape. Do not use any ointment when bandaging with saran wrap. The next morning remove the saran wrap and follow directions above. Use wrap overnight for up to 2 days.
