AFTER CARE
Please follow accordingly.
Once your tattoo is complete it will be covered with second skin.
Keep the second skin on for 3-5 Days.
Only showers, and always lukewarm water. Tattoos resemble sunburns, if the water is too hot, it will hurt.
Second skin breaths and is water resistant, if you water log it, it will loosen. It is best to keep tattoos out of water while showering.
Keep the Tattoo out of the sun and try not to sleep on it.
No pools, ocean, sea, sauna, steam rooms, rivers and still waters. Only Showers.
Once you are at the removal time for the second skin, remove by peeling off along the skin, do not tug away from the body.
Once the second skin is removed, wash with unscented soap, pat dry ( preferably with a paper towel) and then apply unscented lotion.
Depending on how Dirty or Sweaty your day has been, wash once in the morning and once at night or once a day. If you are breaking out into acne you are applying too much lotion.
Around day 7-8, you will begin to peel like a sunburn. You tattoo will appear like it is leaving. This is normal. Do not pick or rub the flacking skin and let it fall off naturally.
Once the peeling is over (around 2 weeks) your tattoo will be healed to the point aftercare can stop.
I recommend not working out while healing the tattoo. Work out = sweat, sweat = salt, salt = dry tattoo and unnecessary dryness leads to extra peeling.
Failure to follow healing instructions may lead to loss of Free touch-ups.
