aftercare essentials:
-
Start your aftercare after your next shower, once you’re out let your new tattoo air dry or gently pat dry with a fresh paper towel or clean bath towel.
-
The most important part!
Clean hands ALWAYS! Apply your preferred aftercare cream or coconut oil 1x per day OR when your tattoo feels itchy/irritated.
Things to avoid:
itching/scratching
direct exposure to sunlight
baths/swimming
excessive sweating (gym, saunas etc)
fake tan
bepanthen tattoo, vaseline, paw paw ointment
-
After the first 2 weeks of aftercare, drop your aftercare cream or coconut oil application down. Touch up’s can be completed after 8 weeks of healing, if necessary.
-
The best way to keep your tattoo healthy and looking FAB is to continue your aftercare regularly and to apply SPF every single day.
