WHAT YOU SHOULD dO TO PREPARE FOR YOUR TATTOO

For some people, tattoos can be very painful and exhausting. We recommend all clients to rest well before their appointments. Tattoos aren’t sprints, they’re marathons. Make sure you are well fed, hydrated and not under any influence of alcohol or abusive substances. Avoid drinking excessively the night before your tattoo session. 

TATTOO AFTERCARE

After going through all that pain for that hard earned artwork, its crucial that you look after your tattoo carefully to keep it looking beautiful.

All clients will be wrapped up and given A&D ointment before they leave. Leave the wrapping on until you get home. Once you’re home, remove it and wash it with warm water softly with unscented soap. Wash off all the Vaseline or dried ink/ blood on and around your tattoo.

Take a soft cloth and pat it dry. Apply a very thin layer of the A&D ointment. Do not apply too much, if your tattoo can’t breathe, you will break out in and around your tattoo. Only apply the ointment when your skin is clean.

When you are at home and can leave the tattoo exposed, do so.

When dressing, make sure the clothes you wear over your tattoo are newly washed. Sleeves and pants that have not been washed recently may hold sweat residue, dirt or bacteria that may irritate your tattoos and cause infection. To be safe, wrap your tattoo in saran wrap for the first 2-3 days.

When showering, use only unscented soap, no perfumes. Try not to shower for too long and once again, only shower in warm water. Pat to dry.

After 3 days or once the A&D ointment packet we gave is done, you can start using unscented lotion on your tattoo. Once again, very light layers and only when your skin is clean. Your skin needs to breathe in order for it to heal.

Your tattoo may start peeling 4-7 days after your session. This is normal. DO NOT PICK OR PULL AT IT. You can cause damage to your skin or infect it by doing so.

A tattoo is usually fully healed in 2 weeks.

If you have any other questions or concerns, do not hesitate to call in to the shop.
