Valid Aftercare Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential to keep your tattoo looking vibrant and to prevent infection:

1. Keep it Clean – Gently wash your tattoo with lukewarm water and fragrance-free soap 2–3 times per day.
2. Moisturize – Apply a thin layer of aftercare ointment or unscented lotion as recommended by your artist.
3. Avoid Picking or Scratching – Let scabs fall off naturally; do not pick or scratch your tattoo.
4. Protect from Sun – Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight while healing and apply SPF once healed.
5. Avoid Submersion – No swimming, hot tubs, or prolonged soaking until fully healed.
6. Wear Loose Clothing – Avoid tight clothing that rubs against the tattoo.
7. Monitor Healing – If you notice excessive redness, swelling, or oozing, contact your tattoo artist immediately.

Following these instructions ensures your tattoo heals beautifully and lasts a lifetime!
