Aftercare

General:

Try to avoid sweating too much and bumping the tattoo

No swimming, hot tubs or baths until fully healed

Try to avoid super hot showers as it will be painful

Second skin:

Leave second skin on for 4-6 days

*if it peels off and the tattoo is exposed, gently remove and follow the next instructions:

During removal, you can do it in the shower or dry— whatever is best for you! I recommend to peel downwards*

Gently remove and wash with unscented soap then moisturize with unscented lotion

*do not scrub if there’s sticky residue, it will come off in time!

Clean the area twice daily, morning and night

Other notes:

Wear loose clothing when possible while it’s healing

It might get itchy or scab and that’s super normal! Do not scratch or peel 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Sunscreen is your bestie from healed on out!

Lastly, you can always email me with any questions or concerns!! Send pics if need be. :) And don’t be shy to reach out to your tattoo artist with questions about this process. It is part of our job and responsibility to ensure you feel good about your tattoo journey.
