Tattoo Aftercare

Cleaning Your Tattoo

After no more than 1-2 hours after your tattoo, remove the bandage and wash gently with warm water and antibacterial soap. Let air dry for about 5-10 minutes. 

2

Daily Care Routine

Apply a thin layer of your preferred healing ointment about 3-5 times a day, for the first 10-14 days. Make sure your hands are clean before applying ointment! 

Recommended products: Aquaphor, Hustle Butter, or Redemption tattooaftercare

​

Always make sure to keep your tattoo clean by washing it once in the morning and once at night with soap and water.

Continued Care

After the first 10-14 days, switch to a preferred fragrance free lotion of your choice until the skin is smooth and back to normal. 

​

If you experience any complications or issues during the healing process, come back to the shop and show your artist; they will help explain what has happened, or if need be we will send you to the doctor.

Important Dos and Don'ts 

Avoid hot tubs, beaches, pools, baths or submerging the tattoo completely underwater. Showers are fine.

​

Be sure to wear SPF 30 or higher during prolonged sun exposure. 

​

Avoid physical activities that may cause sweating for the first 3-5 days.

​

DO NOT PEEL/PICK AT YOUR TATTOO!
