Thank you so much for getting tattooed!
To ensure your tattoo heals well and that you're left with the best end result please read and follow the below instructions:
Things to avoid:
- Sun exposure
- Saunas, swimming, and baths (showering is fine)
- Strenuous exercise
- Shaving, waxing, self-tanning, or exfoliating the area
- Tight clothing over the area
- Scratching or picking at the area
If you experience any issues with the healing process or have any questions please reach out.
Lastly, I also offer free touch-ups when required.
Thank you again, Gracie <3
1. Remove the plastic wrap 2 - 3 hours after getting tattooed. Wash your tattoo with clean hands in warm running water and soap. Gently wash away any ink residue and blood until the area is completely clean. Be sure that all secretions and soap residue are rinsed off.
After washing the tattoo, lightly pat it dry with a paper towel and let it completely dry.
2. With clean hands, gently apply a very thin layer of your preferred aftercare cream. I recommend Bepanthen which can be purchased from the chemist.
3. Your tattoo should be gently cleaned daily and allowed to fully dry before applying a small amount of cream until the piece is fully healed (this usually takes two to three weeks.)
