FAQs

Yes. Do not scratch or pick at your new tattoo

No. You should avoid direct sunlight, as well pool water, hot tubs, steam rooms, and saunas until your new tattoo is healed.

  • Remove bandage / wrap as soon as you’re able to properly wash your fresh tattoo. Try not to leave it on more than 1 – 2 hours. 
  • Once you take the bandage off, do not re-cover or wrap the tattoo. 
  • When the bandage has been removed, wash the tattoo immediately with an unscented liquid mild soap and water. (Unless otherwise directed not to wash for 24 hours by artist.) 
  • Once you’ve properly washed and dried your tattoo you may apply a small amount of Aquaphor water-based ointment. 
  • Work the ointment into your skin and then dab / blot away any excess with a clean paper towel. 
  • Continue this washing and lotion routine 3 – 4 times until fully healed in 2 – 4 weeks. 
  • You may notice your tattoo become flaky or scabby in some spots. This is part of the process and they will fall off on their own.
