MAKE SURE YOUR TATTOOS LAST

• I provide my clients an after-care card which includes all of this information at the end of every tattoo session

• When your tattoo is done, I cover it with a sanitary “derma shield” protective wrap. (if you have sensitivity too adhesives, we can discuss other options)

• I always recommend leaving the wrap on for 2-3 days if possible. (it’s water resistant so you can shower with it on) This wrap serves as a “healing bubble” it almost tricks your skin into thinking the wound has already scabbed over, therefore starting the healing process a little sooner.

• When it’s time to take the wrap off, do so under running water (in the shower is best)

• Once the wrap is off, give your new tattoo a gentle wash with unscented soap (I recommend Dr. Bronner’s) Then pat dry with a clean paper towel.

• Once tattoo is washed and dried, take a small amount of unscented lotion (I recommend Aveeno Lotion) and moisturize 2-3 times a day. The best way to make sure your tattoo heals properly is to keep it moisturized!

• Repeat with the lotion for the next 2 weeks

• If anything fades, I provide free touch ups with in 6 months of getting the tattoo. If you exceed the 6 months, then you will be charged a $50 fee for touch ups.
