Tattoo Aftercare
After your new tattoo is covered up, you should keep your bandage no more than two hours or as soon as you get home to wash it off. The bandage keeps it from airborne bacteria from invading your wound.
Gently remove any ointment, blood and/or plasma using liquid antibacterial or non-scented soap. We recommend using Dr. Bronner’s Baby unscented soap. Pat dry and apply aftercare product.
Aftercare Product
We recommend using Lubriderm lotion.
Apply Lubriderm lotion throughout the entire healing process. Apply a thin layer and rub it in, then dab excess off. Use this product consistently until your tattoo is fully healed.
DO NOT APPLY VERY THICK! Apply only a thin layer to avoid clogging pores or causing irritation. If any irritation occurs, please contact us immediately.
Wear clean clothes and sleep on clean bed sheets to avoid any irritations to the new tattoo.
Things to Avoid During Healing
- Tight fitting apparel
- Direct sunlight for the first 2 weeks
- Tanning beds
- Swimming (ocean, lakes, rivers and swimming pools)
- DO NOT PICK OR scratch at tattoo
