Tattoo Aftercare
- 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.
