Aftercare

  1. Remove wrapping after 2 – 3 hours.

  • Slowly remove the cling film slowly in in the shower under warm water. You do not was to cause any trauma to the healing area. There are a few ways to wrap a tattoo, so ask your artist if they can give advice.

2. Wash with clean water.

  • Gently wash the tattoo under warm running water.

    If washing in the shower be careful to avoid shampoo or shower gel getting on the tattooed area.

3. Let it dry naturally and let it breathe.

  • Try to avoid waring any clothing that rubs or aggravates the tattoo during the first 48 hours.

4. Add a very small amount of aftercare.

  • Less is more when it comes to applying aftercare. You only need to apply a small amount of aftercare to the tattoo.

5. Repeat once or twice daily.

  • Applying aftercare to the tattoo in the morning after a shower is perfect, although a second wash and aftercare application in the evening before bed is all good too.
