Instructions
Whether it's your first or thirty-first tattoo, aftercare is key. It's what will protect your tattooed skin over the next few weeks. So follow these steps, along with your artist's advice:
1. Don't Touch
No peeking under the bandage. Keep it on for however long your artist tells you - usually at least two hours.
2. Remove the bandage
Always wash your hands with mild soap before any physical contact with your fresh tattoo. When removing the bandage, be gentle. If it sticks to your skin, try wetting it with lukewarm water so it comes off more easily.
3. Wash the skin
You may see some blood or ooze - gross, but normal. Gently wash the tattooed area and surrounding skin at least once daily with lukewarm water and a mild soap.
4. Dry it well
Pat the skin dry with a clean paper towel or alternatively allow the tattoo to air dry, and no rubbing. Seriously. You may irritate the skin or make it bleed.
5. Moisturise with Bepanthen
It's important to keep your skin hydrated and protected. Apply a thin layer to cover the tattooed area evenly at least four
times a day and as needed
6. Keep it up
Continue to clean and moisturise the tattooed area until it has completely healed (may take up to 4 weeks). Keep it up even after the scabs are gone. FYI, there may be scabs.
7. Things to avoid
Scratching the skin or picking scabs
Immersing your tattoo in water, such as hot baths, spas or swimming pools
Harsh or direct sunlight
Tight, restrictive clothing
Working out or straining the area
