Wash the tattoo with warm water and an antibacterial soap ( water should be as warm as you can handle with out burning)
Rinse the tattoo with cold water
Let the tattoo air dry for 10 minutes or so
gently massage a thin layer of AQUAPHOR healing ointment into your tattoo ( think lotion not cake frosting)
Repeat this process ( minus the cold water rinse) for the first 2 days when the tattoo feels like it is drying out
After 2 days switch from aquaphor to a plain white lotion for the next week or until the tattoo looks normal
It is very important to keep your new tattoo clean and moisturized
No direct sunlight
No lakes pools jacuzzis or oceans for the first 2 weeks
No picking or scratching the tattoo when it becomes itchy
please contact me if you have any questions regarding the care of your tattoo. You've invested your money into your tattoo now it just takes a little time.
