Aftercare instructions to ensure that your new tattoo heals properly. Important things to remember: 1. Always listen to the recommendations your tattoo artist gives you on how to care for your tattoo. If you have any questions or concerns, ask them!! 2. DO NOT soak the skin of your new tattoo for at least two weeks. This means no baths, no pools, and no hot tubs. 3. NEVER pick or peel the scab of your tattoo. Also make sure to wear clothing that does not rub or irritate the tattooed area. 4. Do not over-moisturize your tattoo. Use the smallest amount of lotion or ointment needed to thinly coat the tattooed area. 5. Avoid direct exposure with the sun, as it can cause fading and blur your tattoo. When your tattoo heals, make sure to use sunscreen with SPF of 15 or higher to prolong the color and life of your tattoo. 5. Tattoos are permanent....and laser removal is expensive and painful!
