Tattoo Aftercare
Do NOT listen to your friends. They are not professional tattoo artists.
Keep your new tattoo wrapped overnight. Your tattoo is covered for your protection against dirt, dust, pet dander, etc. After the first night, you will
NOT wrap your tattoo again.
When you wake up in the morning, take the bandage off with clean hands!
Using your clean hand, gently clean the area with unscented antibacterial soap and warm water. Pat dry with a clean paper towel. Apply a small amount of Mad Rabbit Repair Gel, or unscented lotion such as Curel Ultra Healing or Lubiderm. Repeat these steps 2 times daily for the full 3 weeks of healing.
DO NOT use thick lotions or ointments, such as A&D, Vaseline, or Aquaphor.
DO NOT submerge your tattoo in any form of water for the entire 3 weeks.
NO baths, pools, hot tubs, lakes, rivers, ocean, etc. Showers only.
DO NOT allow sun exposure or apply sunscreen to healing tattoos. Wear loose fit clothing over the tattoo.
DO NOT scratch or pick your tattoo.
TATTOO AFTERCARE IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!
If you follow these instructions, you should not have issues with the healing of your tattoo.
If problems or concerns arise, please contact your artist and doctor.
