Do’s and Dont’s
Congratulations on your new tattoo! To ensure that it heals beautifully, please follow these aftercare instructions.
Please do:
✓ Remove your bandage 3-4 days after your tattoo appointment.
✓ Gently wash your new tattoo with Dial Gold antibacterial soap and lukewarm water for 2-4 weeks. Pat dry with a clean paper towel or let it air dry.
✓ When the tattoo looks dry, apply a thin layer of Aquaphor to keep it moisturized.
✓ Wear loose, breathable clothing to prevent irritation.
please don’t:
✘ Don’t expose your fresh tattoo to direct sunlight. Keep it covered or in the shade, and once healed, always use SPF 30+ sunscreen.
✘ Don’t shave over your tattoo until it is fully healed.
✘ Don’t use a loofah, washcloth, or exfoliating products—wash gently with your hands only.
✘ Don’t soak your tattoo in water—avoid pools, baths, hot tubs, and jacuzzis. Showers are fine.
✘ Don’t pick, scratch, or peel the tattoo, even if it starts to flake or itch.
✘ Don’t overapply ointment — only use a thin layer.
