Caring for your new tattoo

1. Remove your bandage 1 to 2 hours after you've gotten your new tattoo.

2. After removing your bandage you need to wash your tattoo in warm water and non-perfumed soap (Ivory.)

3. Pat your tattoo dry, don't rub.

4. After drying we ask you to apply a think coat of tattoo goo, A D ointment or Bacitacin ointment. This is what the artists recommend for your new tattoo. Please don't use Vaseline. Do this 3 or 4 times a day.

5. We ask that to keep the quality of the tattoo you refrain from tanning your tattoo in any way. However, if you do tan, after your tattoo heals you can use sunblock or cover it up (this may help some). We strongly recommend NO tanning.

6. No swimming for 2 to 4 weeks.

7. Always feel free to call the shop about any questions or doubts you may have.

Please listen to the Artists about the care of your tattoo, not someone other than an Artist. Your tattoo artist knows best.
