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 Aquaphor ointment and Eucerin lotion. Using Aquaphor should be used during the start of the healing process for the first week and then switching to unscented lotion (Eurcerin). Apply a thin layer and rub it in, then dab excess off. DO NOT APPLY VERY THICK! Applying very thick Aquaphor for a long period of time can break out in a rash. If this happens, please stop using immediately and switch to a non-scented lotion. 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 YOUR TATTOO.
