Tattoo Aftercare
A new tattoo can be covered for up to 4 hours, then you need to remove the dressing and clean the tattoo with warm soapy water.
Let the tattoo to air dry then re-cover, and repeat the process once again before going to bed.
In the morning unwrap the tattoo and clean again with warm soapy water. Keep it unwrapped from this point on. Clean around lunchtime and apply a very small amount of the aftercare cream.
Thereafter, clean the tattoo one or two times a day with soapy water, allow to dry and then apply a small amount of aftercare cream.
After 6-7 days you can use a moisturiser like cocoa butter.
During the healing of the tattoo it’s ok to get the tattoo wet if you take a shower for example, but don’t keep it in the water for any length of time.
Try to keep the tattoo out of direct sunlight where possible for the first two weeks and make sure to touch only with clean hands.
Any questions at all during the healing stage, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
