Basic Aftercare Instructions

1. Remove bandage the morning after you receive your tattoo (in the case of tattoos done early in the day, remove the bandage after a minimum of 6 hours). Always remove the bandage at home.

2. Using a brand new bar of mild, unscented soap (i.e. Ivory, etc.), warm water and your hands (a wash cloth can be too harsh and should not be used) thoroughly cleanse the area ensuring that all traces of Vaseline, excess pigment and blood are removed.

3. Rinse with clean water and gently pat the area dry with a clean towel.

 

4. Leave it alone for 2 days (do not clean, do not apply lotion, do not re-bandage).

5. Begin using Unscented Lubriderm (available at any pharmacy) at the beginning of the third day.

6. Wash your hands, and apply a very thin coat 2-3 times a day until the scabs and flaking are done, and the area regains its original texture.
