Tattoo Aftercare Instructions

• Leave bandage on for 4-12 hours
• Remove and wash well with soap and water
• Apply an unscented lotion such as Aveeno or Lubriderm
• Wash and moisturize at least 3-4 times a day for first 2 days
• From day 3 on, just moisturize, not wash, 3-4 times a day
• Showering is fine, no baths, no soaking in water for one week
• In approximately 5-9 days you will notice a flaking, like a sunburn, this is a normal part of the healing process
• Once the flaking has subsided your tattoo is healed and you can discontinue moisturizing
• Avoid direct sunlight on your tattoo for 2 weeks, and if necessary apply sunscreen over tattoo for 3 weeks after that to insure tattoo is completely healed through before tanning
