2. Wash tattoo with clean hands, warm water, and antibacterial hand soap. Rinse well and pat dry with clean paper towel.
3. Apply a thin layer of unscented uncoloured lotion such as Lubriderm or After Inked. Do so for 1-2 weeks.
4. No swimming, soaking, or suntanning for at least two weeks. Shower as you normally would.
5. Scabbing and peeling is NORMAL. Do not pick or scratch.
6. If your bandage starts leaking, or the tattooed area becomes exposed, be sure to take off the second skin to avoid trapping bacteria underneath. Follow up with the same washing procedure as listed above.
7. Follow these instructions to ensure maximum healing results. Aftercare is your responsibility. Do not follow what your mother, brother, sister, cousin, or dog says. Different artist, different application, different rules.
8. Please contact me should you have any questions or concerns about the healing of your tattoo. Enjoy folks!
