Tattoo Aftercare
Hey! Thanks again for choosing me for your tattoo! Here are a few simple tips to make sure everything heals perfectly:
Film
I've applied a special protective film after the session. Keep it on for 2 days.
Try not to get the tattoo wet or submerge it in water (no baths or swimming). Showering is fine, just make sure the water doesn't hit the tattoo directly.
After Removing the Film
After two days, carefully remove the film.
Wash the tattoo with warm water and mild soap (fragrance-free). Don't scrub it, just gently clean it with your hand.
Pat it dry with a clean, soft towel — no rubbing.
Moisturizing and Healing
After washing, apply Bepanthen or another healing ointment 3 times a day for a week. Don't overdo it — a thin layer is all you need.
After the first week, switch to a regular fragrance-free moisturizer and keep using it until the tattoo is fully healed and stops peeling.
Some Extra Tips
- Don't scratch or pick at the tattoo, even if it itches. Peeling is normal.
- Wear loose clothing to avoid irritation.
- Avoid direct sunlight while it's healing. Once healed, use a high SPF sunscreen to protect the tattoo.
- No swimming or soaking in water (like hot tubs or pools) until it's fully healed.
