AFTERCARE

When you leave the studio your tattoo(s) will be wrapped in clingfilm. Please leave this on until you get home (or 2 hours max after your appointment)

Once you're home -

- Remove the cling film

- Wash tattoo with warm soapy water (avoid soaps with heavy perfumes or chemicals)

- Leave to air dry or pat dry with kitchen roll (don't use toilet roll or towels to dry it)

- Apply a thin layer of cream to your tattoo

Please clean and cream your tattoo 3-4 times a day for 7-10 days after your appointment.

Tattoo aftercare creams

As long as you know you're not allergic to the contents I would recommend the following -

- Hustle butter (we do sell this in the studio)

- Natural coco butter (Original Palmers works nicely)

- Coconut oil

Please AVOID using Bepanthen/Savlon/E45

Normal things your tattoo will do during healing -

- Scab up and start to flake off (please do not pick these scabs as it will affect the end result)

- Your tattoo might get quite itchy, please avoid scratching it.

THINGS TO AVOID

- Swimming pools/saunas/baths/Sea water and sun exposure for 2 weeks post appointment.

If you have any questions about the aftercare or how your tattoo is healing then please don't hesitate to get in touch.
