CARE OF YOUR NEW TATTOO

1. Leave bandage on for 1 hour.

2. After removal of bandage, wash area with cool soapy water.

3. Wash new tattoo every few hours - at least 6 times a day for the first 2-3 days.
Then wash tattoo 2-3 times a day.

4. Massage your tattoo gently but firmly when washing. (Don’t be shocked at any colour you may see being expelled at this time!)

5. Gently massage Bepanthen or Protat into your new tattoo. Use a tissue to wipe away any excess cream. Avoid applying Bepanthen or Protat on tattoo before bed. DO NOT let your tattoo get overly moist.

6. DO NOT TOUCH tattoo or apply Bepanthen or Protat with unclean hands.

7. DO NOT rebandage tattoo

8. If any scabs appear after a few days, DO NOT pick at them! Your tattoo may become itchy while it is healing – this is normal! Do not scratch tattoo!

9. DO NOT sauna, sunbathe or swim while tattoo is healing! It is preferred you wait at least 3-4 weeks to do these activities.

10. YOU are responsible for the care of your tattoo after you leave our studio.
