Aftercare Instructions

Tattoo Aftercare Procedure:

Keep the second skin on for 1 to 2 days then peel off under running water (make sure to wash your hands before peeling off)

If the second skin is peeling, leaking, or you feel itchy take it off as soon as possible.

Wash tattoo twice a day morning and night with UNSCENTED antibacterial soap. I recommend the brand Dial.

After washing and patting dry with a paper towel put a thin layer of Aquaphor (Do not use a towel as they can harbor a lot of bacteria)

On day 4 or 5 or when the tattoo starts getting flaky/itchy keep washing it morning and night and then feel free to put a thin layer of FRAGRANCE FREE gold bond lotion. If you would prefer, you can keep using a thin layer of Aquaphor.

General Aftercare:

NO exercising or excessive sweating for the next week.

NO swimming or submerging in water until the tattoo is fully healed (5 weeks)

Avoid putting the tattoo under hot water for too long (ex. hot showers)
