Tattoo Aftercare

  • Remove bandage after 4 to 6 hours. Do NOT reapply.
  • Dab off excess plasma (gooey stuff) with a damp towel or cloth, or rinse lightly with warm water and antibacterial soap. Gently pat dry.
  • Apply SMALL amount of vitamin A+D ointment to your tattoo every few hours, removing any excess plasma there may be before hand. Do NOT LAYER THE A+D ON HEAVILY! Use it as if you were applying lotion or sunscreen. Repeat for 1 to 2 days. Do NOT use for more than 2 days.
  • After using the A+D ointment for 1 to 2 days, switch to a plain, UNSCENTED lotion. Again, apply a small amount a few times a day.

Tattoos heal differently for everyone. Average healing takes 1 to 2 weeks for tattoos to completely heal. Tattoos should NOT scab up very much, but sometimes it’s unavoidable. In the event scabbing occurs, DO NOT PICK or SCRATCH AT IT! It will heal on its own. Also, you may shower with your tattoo, just DON’T keep it directly under the water for any extended period of time or scrub/use anything abrasive on it. DO NOT SUBMERGE IT FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME (i.e. swimming, taking baths, etc.). Any other questions or concerns call your TATTOOIST!!! Enjoy!

Items needed for proper tattoo aftercare:

  • Vitamin A+D ointment (no zinc)
  • Plain, unscented lotion. We personally recommend Curel.
