AFTERCARE ADVICE

Immediate Aftercare (First 48 Hours)

Keep the tattoo wrapped for at least a few hours.

Wash your hands before touching your tattoo.

Gently wash with lukewarm water & unscented soap—do not scrub!

Pat dry with a clean paper towel (no rubbing).

Apply a thin layer of fragrance-free tattoo aftercare ointment.

​

First 2 Weeks

Moisturize lightly 2-3 times a day with a tattoo-safe lotion.

Avoid sun exposure—UV rays can fade your tattoo quickly.

No swimming, saunas, or soaking—keep it dry!

Expect peeling & scabbing—do NOT pick or scratch!

Wear loose, breathable clothing over the tattoo.

​

Long Term Care

Always use sunscreen on healed tattoos to prevent fading.

Keep your skin moisturized for long-term vibrancy.

If any issues arise, reach out for advice.
