TATTOO AFTER CARE

1. Remove bandage after two hours. If bandage sticks to your tattoo or skin, wet slightly and remove gently.

2. Wash gently with soap and warm water. Do not scrub or let shower beat directly on tattoo.

3. Do NOT apply VASELINE OR NEOSPORIN.

4. For the first three days, apply very small amounts of BACITRACIN, A & D OINTMENT or TATTOO GOO. To promote good healing. Then for about the next three weeks apply a good white lotion. Do not allow your tattoo to completely dry out!

5. Keep tattoo away from sun. Stay away from saltwater, rivers, lakes, and chlorinated water for at least two weeks, as these all tend to harbor bacteria. Showers are O.K. but soaking in a bath is not recommended.

6. Do not rub or pick at the tattoo especially when it starts to scab. This is your body healing and this scab with fall on it's own within a couple of days. When the itching persists you can slap at it, but no rubbing or scratching!

7. Keep dirty hands off at all times. Make sure to wash thoroughly before and after touching your tattoo.

8. Call your artist with any questions or concerns, you might have during your healing period.
