🧾 Tattoo Care Instructions
Before Your Appointment
To ensure a smooth and comfortable tattoo experience, please follow these guidelines before your session:
- Eat a full meal beforehand to maintain your energy, especially if it’s your first time.
- Be confident in your design choice. If you have doubts or need changes, please reach out ahead of time.
- Minors must present a notarized consent form. This form must be signed and stamped before the appointment.
- For longer sessions, consider bringing:
- A pillow if you'll be laying down for a while.
- Snacks and water to stay hydrated and comfortable.
- A friend for support (optional, and only for shorter appointments).
- Avoid direct sunlight on the tattoo for at least two weeks.
Tattoo Aftercare
- Remove the plastic wrap after 1 hour.
- Wash the tattoo gently with antibacterial soap (e.g., Dial soap).
- Wash 2–3 times daily during the 3-week healing period.
- Apply a thin layer of Aquaphor after each wash. Avoid overapplying.
- Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight while healing.
- Do not scratch, pick, or scrub your tattoo.
- Avoid swimming in pools, lakes, hot tubs, or any water bodies.
- Short showers are fine; avoid soaking the tattoo in baths.
