TATTOO AFTERCARE TIPS:

It is vital to take care of your tattoo. Your new ink can be fragile and you must remember your skin is an open wound and needs proper attention.

* Keep the bandage the tattoo artist puts over your tattoo on as long as they recommend. It's tempting to rip that bandage off since a freshly done tattoo looks so good but it could put you at risk of extra irritation, infection and even ink discoloration.

* Do not rebandage the tattoo. It needs to breathe.

* Avoid wearing tight fitting clothes over a new tattoo.

* Always use clean hands when touching your tattoo.

* Clean your tattoo with a gentle cleanser that does not contain alcohol or harsh cleansing agents or any lotions with fragrance.

* Thoroughly moisturize your new tattoo.

* Avoid sun exposure.

* Avoid bodies of water for several weeks after getting tattooed.

* Never pickflaking skin or scabs and resist the urge to itch!!

* Avoid hot showers as well as saunas or excessive sweating. These activities will open the pores and could cause ink to leak out.
