Healing time varies from client to client. Allow 4-6 weeks from initial appointment before scheduling a touch up (if necessary)

AFTER 72 HOURS: You can remove your wrap and begin to gently cleanse the area 2-3 times daily until fully healed. Once the tattoo has scabbed and peeled away, it will have settled into the skin and faded ever so slightly.

1. With clean hands, take an antibacterial soap and work up a lather. Wash the area using circular motions. We recommend: Dial, Dove unscented, or our foaming cleanser~ Rinse with lukewarm water.

2. Dab the area dry with a disposable paper towel. Traditional towels trap moisture and can sometimes harvest bacteria. It is best to avoid them while your tattoo is fairly fresh.

3. Apply a thin layer of the ointment provided to you. Just enough to moisturize the area. Avoid applying an excessive amount as this may suffocate the skin and delay the healing process. If you run out of A&D we suggest Hustle Butter or Base Labs Tattoo Balm

AVOID:

-Exercise or strenuous physical activity for a week

-Long hot showers as well as submerging your tattoo in water (pools, jacuzzies, tubs, etc.)

-Abrasive scrubs and heavily scented lotions

-Direct UV exposure, sunbathing and booth tanning. Wear SPF when possible

-Picking, rubbing and scratching the area

Initial touch ups are free and must be booked at least 4-6 weeks out from the date the tattoo was received. Reach out via phone or email to get scheduled if you feel you need one as this service is booked through a private shared link. Additional touch ups will be subject to a tray fee.
