Tattoo Aftercare:

 

- After 3-5 hours (preferably when you get home) remove your bandage

- Wash your hands well, then wash your tattoo using water and unscented soap to remove any leftover blood, ink, plasma, etc.

- Wash your tattoo twice daily; once in the morning and once in the evening, and gently pat it dry with a clean towel

- Leave your tattoo alone as much as possible; don't pick, scratch, or re-bandage your tattoo at any time during the healing process

- On the second day after your appointment, moisturize your tattoo with A SMALL AMOUNT of unscented, unmedicated lotion up to three times daily

 

Don't use any vaseline, polysporing, Bactine, rubbing alcohol, tea tree oil, or anything anti-bacterial on your healing tattoo.

 

Avoid bathtubs, hot tubs, pools, lakes, rivers, oceans, etc. until your tattoo has completely finished flaking.
