Tattoo Healing And Care
- Leave the bandage on for 2 to 3 hours
- Wash the tattoo with mild soap and water, pat dry (repeat once a day)
- Apply A&D ointment sparingly 3 to 4 times a day (rub in briefly then wipe off any excess)
- DO NOT swim or use the jacuzzi for at least 1 week (or until tattoo is fully healed)
- DO NOT get direct sunlight on the tattoo
- DO NOT scratch or pick the tattoo
- DO keep the tattoo clean and medicated until fully healed
- DO keep skin hydrated with a good lotion to keep colors bright
- DO use a high SPF sunblock on tattoo to maintain color intensity
Failure to follow directions can result in extended healing time and/or tattoo not looking its best. If you have any questions please call or stop in to the studio.
