Tattoo After Care
Follow these tattoo aftercare guidelines to help your new ink heal beautifully:
Avoid sun, swimming, hot tubs during healing. Opt for loose, breathable clothing over the tattoo.
If wrapped with second skin, remove it after 24 hours. Otherwise remove the bandage in 2-3 hours.
Wash your hands before touching the tattoo and gently clean with fragrance-free, anti-bacterial soap and water. Avoid scrubbing!
Pat dry with a clean towel or paper towel. Don't rub!
You want to apply a thin layer of fragrance-free moisturizer 2-3 times daily for 2-3 weeks.(Lubriderm, Aveeno, Cera Ve etc.)
