Immediate

When you leave the studio, your tattoo will be covered, to make sure nothing touches the tattoo.

The cover also prevents the blood from air drying, which is very important to prevent scabbing.

The cover is to stay on approximately 2 hours.

Two Hours Later

When you remove the cover, wash the tattoo thoroughly with soapy water with the palm of your hand. Gently remove all the traces of blood and ink, the rinse with clean water.

Pat down the tattoo with a clean dry towel. Do not rub. Allow it to air dry before applying the after care cream.

After Care Cream

We have not found a magic after care cream yet. After care cream is only part of the solution to healing your tattoo. General health, hygiene, and skin types also play a major part in a properly healed tattoo.

Apply after care cream twice daily but remember to wash and dry before each application.

Healing Time

Healing time will be anywhere from 7 to 14 days depending on the position of your tattoo and your skin type.

When fully healed we suggest you use a SPF15+ sunscreen or higher to protect against damaging UV when exposed to the sun.
