Initial Care

It is important to be safe with your tattoo the first week that you have your tattoo. Your skin is still fresh and recovering from the being poked and prodded by a tattoo needle. If you are looking to avoid touchups or reworks taking your tattoo care seriously is a must!

What To Expect

After getting your brand new tattoo you will be sent home with it wrapped. It is important to keep the wrap in tact for at least 24 hours! After the initial 24 hours feel free to remove your wrapping and properly clean your tattoo. When cleaning your tattoo it is completely normal to see running ink/color, or even redness.

  • Soothing Gel: This will offer you comfort when you first get your new tattoo. Be sure to apply gently to irritated areas.

  • SPF-30: The sun is the biggest enemy to a tattoo. Applying this product during the hotter days will help prevent any damage to your tattoo/skin.

  • Soap: The perfect option for gentle cleaning of your tattoo. Allowing for brighter, more vibrant existing ink.
