after care wash process

YOU WILL REPEAT THE PROCESS BELOW FOR 5 DAYS, NO MORE ​THAN TWICE A DAY

After removing wrap:

1. Thoroughly wash your tattoo with anti bacterial soap (dial soap is a ​good option) with warm water.

2. Pat dry with a clean paper towel

3. Apply a very thin layer of scent free lotion (lubriderm is a good option). ​Keep your tattoo hydrated throughout the day with a thin layer of lotion ​on it until healed. (Think the same layer thickness as chapstick on your ​lips).

Avoid scented lotions (for 5 days) and sunscreen (for 2 weeks)

-After 5 days you will no longer need to follow the after care wash ​process. You can start applying your regular lotions to the area. It is ​normal for flakes of color to be coming of at this stage. Allow them to do ​so naturally. DO NOT PICK ANY SCABS!

-After 2 weeks continue using lotions as needed or when your tattoo ​looks dry. At this point you can resume water and sun activities. Always ​put sunscreen on your tattoo anytime you are in the sun

PRO TIPS: After removing the wrap don’t forget to follow the after care ​instructions twice a day for 5 days. However, if you notice that your tattoo ​is dry it is so important to re-apply lotion as needed. Keeping your tattoo ​hydrated and clean is going to give you the best results during your ​healing process. Avoid letting hot water run directly on the tattoo when ​showering. It is normal for the area to be itchy. Try not to scratch and ​avoid tight or restrictive clothing that might rub against the tattoo. Keep ​your tattoo out of the sun as much as possible. While tanning or tanning ​in beds, cover your tattoo.
