AFTER CARE
Aftercare
1. Keep it Covered: Leave the bandage on your new tattoo until you get home. This helps protect it from dirt and bacteria.
2. Gentle Cleansing: After removing the bandage, wash your tattoo gently with mild, fragrance-free soap and lukewarm water. Use your clean hands, not a washcloth or sponge.
3. Pat Dry: Gently pat the tattoo dry with a clean paper towel. Do not rub or use a dirty towel.
4. Moisturize: Moisturizing starts on the 3rd day of you getting your tattoo. Apply a thin layer of tattoo-specific ointment or unscented, alcohol-free moisturizer to keep the tattoo hydrated. Avoid petroleum-based products. Do this for the next 3 weeks.
5. No Picking or Scratching: Do not scratch, pick, or peel the scabs or flakes that form on the tattoo. Let them come off naturally.
6. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your tattoo from direct sunlight and tanning beds. Apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 when exposed to the sun once it's healed.
7. Stay Away from Pools and Hot Tubs: Avoid swimming in pools, hot tubs, or any other water bodies until the tattoo is fully healed to prevent infection.
8. Don't go to gym: To minimize of infection, please avoid working out for at least a week. Think of it as your de-load week!
9. Pets and children: Be careful about your loved ones, don't expose your fresh tattoo to any germs that might come in contact until it's full healed.
10. Loose Clothing: Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing to prevent friction and irritation on the healing tattoo.
11. No Soaking: Avoid long baths, hot tubs, saunas, and excessive moisture during the healing process.
12. Healthy Lifestyle: Maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, proper hydration, and adequate sleep to promote optimal healing.
13. Consult a Professional: If you notice signs of infection, unusual redness, excessive swelling, or if your tattoo isn't healing as expected, consult a healthcare professional promptly.
Remember that the healing process can vary from person to person and depending on the size and complexity of your tattoo. Be patient and give your tattoo the care it needs to ensure vibrant and long-lasting results.
