Aftercare

How to take care of your new tattoo

Proper aftercare is essential for your tattoo to heal well. Follow these instructions carefully.

01

First 3-4 hours

Keep the bandage on for 3-4 hours after your session. This timing is for small to medium tattoos — for bigger pieces, your artist will give you specific instructions.

02

Washing

Gently wash the tattoo with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Pat dry with a clean paper towel — never rub.

03

Moisturizing

Apply a tattoo aftercare balm 2-3 times a day, or whenever the tattoo looks dry. Your artist can recommend a specific product.

04

First 2 weeks

No swimming, no sauna, no direct sunlight. Don't scratch or pick at the tattoo — it will peel naturally. Wear loose clothing over the area.

05

Long-term care

Once healed, always apply sunscreen on your tattoo when exposed to the sun. This keeps the colors vibrant for years.

Do

  • Keep it clean and moisturized
  • Wear loose, breathable clothing
  • Let it peel naturally
  • Use SPF once healed

Don't

  • Don't scratch, pick, or peel
  • No swimming pools, ocean, or hot tubs
  • No direct sunlight or tanning beds
  • Don't apply too much cream

If you have any concerns during healing, don't hesitate to reach out.
