How to take care of your tattoo

Step 1: Removing the Second Skin
  1. Remove the second skin within 24 hours, ideally after a shower when it's easier to loosen.

  2. Gentle Removal: Peel off the second skin gently. If it's sticky, spray cold water between the tattoo and the skin for easier removal.

  3. Washing: After removing the second skin, gently wash your tattoo with water and pat it dry.
    (Alerts: If you feel itching, swelling, or notice pimples, remove the second skin immediately.)

  4. Adhesive Residue: Use warm water and unscented soap to gently rub off any sticky residue.
     

Step 2: Applying Ointment
  1. Products: Use unscented lotion.

  2. Moisturizing: Apply a small amount of cream five times a day to keep the tattoo moisturized. Using too much might block airflow and cause inflammation.

  3. Cleaning: Clean your tattoo if needed. Use cold, clean water and pat dry before applying cream.

  4. Healing Time: Your tattoo should heal in 3 weeks to a month.
     

Additional Care Tips

  • Peeling: Let the tattoo peel naturally within healing process, don't pick at it or soak it in water.

  • Restrictions: Avoid baths, sun exposure, swimming pools, oceans, or saunas until your skin is fully healed to prevent infection.

  • Activity: Avoid intense workouts and alcohol for three days.

  • Showering: You can shower, but minimize direct and prolonged exposure to hot water. Cold water is better for rinsing the tattoo.
