AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS

To ensure optimal tattoo healing, prioritize cleanliness and hydration.

Aftercare varies from person to person - below are general instructions which may need to be modified depending on sensitivities.

We encourage communication with your artist throughout the healing process. If you have any concerns or questions about your tattoo care, don't hesitate to reach out.

Additionally, it's essential to inform your artist prior to your appointment about any allergies you may have to prevent adverse reactions during the healing process.

A Method of Healing:

• Always wash hands well before caring for your tattoo; remove bandage in approximately one hour.

• Wash tattoo gently with clean hands thoroughly with unscented soap & lukewarm water. Rinse with cold water.

• Air dry for 10-15 minutes or gently pat dry with paper towel. No wiping.

• Apply a small amount of coconut oil, fragrance free lotion (or Wild Rose or Hustlebutter) to your tattoo until absorbed into the skin.

• Avoid over applying - make sure lotion is thoroughly absorbed.

• Tattoo may flake/peel like sunburn: DO NOT PICK OR SCRATCH TATTOO. Stay hydrated/rested.

• Carefully apply coconut oil, fragrance free lotion (or Wild Rose/Hustlebutter) a few times a day or as needed for remainder of tattoo healing process: 1-4 weeks depending on the type of tattoo and skin.

• Avoid tight fitting clothing during healing.

• DO NOT soak tattoo in shower, tub, ocean/pool or expose to direct sun/tanning beds for 2-3 weeks.

• After tattoo has fully healed, apply a high SPF to avoid sun damage.

• If swelling and redness persist, please see a physician and notify your artist.

Please keep in touch with your artist about your healing tattoo and let us know if you have any questions at any time.
