There are a few really important things to remember in order for your tattoo to heal properly and ensure that it looks its best for many years to come.

Please leave your second skin on for 24/28 hours, it’ll fill up with ink blood and plasma as your tattoo heals, don’t worry this is normal. Remove it when an ink sack has formed. Either in or after a shower.

Please don’t scrub, itch or scratch, it’s a fresh wound.

Only moisturise with an unscented tattoo safe balm/lotion once it has begun to scab.

Avoid direct sun exposure for 2-4 weeks.

Washing & Showering is all good but please no spas, baths, and swimming for 3-4 weeks after. Don’t soak ur ink!

After your tattoo session, I will hand you one of these to go home with. It’ll just help you to remember a few things to look after your new ink, and of course If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me!! ‪‪❤︎‬
