How do I get ready for my tattoo?

 

For the best healed results you will want your skin to be prepped and ready. For the days leading up to your appointment you will want your skin to be hydrated, so drink a lot of water and lotion up. It is recommended to avoid heavily consuming alcohol 24 hours before your scheduled appointment. The day of your appointment, it is recommended to eat a hearty meal before arriving. Bring water and a snack if you're scheduled for a long session.

​

What is the aftercare for my tattoo?

​

• Remove bandage after a minimum of 1 hour, wash gently with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Blot dry with clean paper towels.  Wash your tattoo twice a day with antibacterial soap until it has finished peeling.

• Apply a light amount of AQUAPHOR ointment three times daily(morning, noon and evening) for three days, NEVER apply ointment on a wet tattoo!

• On the fourth day, switch to a fragrance free lotion for the remainder of the healing (We recommend Vaseline: Intensive Care Advanced Repair Lotion)

• Do NOT pick, itch or scratch your peeling tattoo- This will promote bad healing and loss of pigment.

• No swimming, hot tubs or showers longer than 10 minutes - This will cause your tattoo to heal poorly and scab which will result badly in the finished result.

• Do not allow dirt, pets, dirty hands or anything that is not sanitary to touch your new tattoo - All of these could result in an infection which will result in longer than expected healing times

• If you take proper care of your new tattoo it should peel light and flakey within 6-10 days.

​

 

WHAT TO AVOID

• Swimming or any water other than personal hygiene

• Contact to the tattooed area with animals for at least 1 week

• DO NOT pick, scratch, or expose healing tattoo to direct  sunlight or tanning beds

• Signs and symptoms of infection, include but are not limited to: redness, swelling, tenderness of the procedure site, red streaks going from the procedure site toward the heart, elevated body temperature, or purulent drainage from the procedure site. If these symptoms occur seek medical care
