Aftercare

Traditional Bandage

• Roughly 2-8 hours after leaving the shop you will (with clean hands) unwrap and discard your bandage.

• Wash your tattoo with hot water and liquid fragrance free soap using clean hands. Pat dry with a clean paper towel, and apply a very thin layer of Aquaphor.

• Repeat the cleaning technique 2-3 times a day, especially before bed and when you wake up, for the next 3 days.

• When the tattoo starts to peel/flake, you’ll wash it once a day, switch to a fragrance free lotion, and apply whenever it feels dry or itchy.

• Ensure that your bedding and clothing are fresh and clean during the healing process.

• If your tattoo sticks to your clothing, wet the area before pulling it away from your tattoo.
