Tattoo After Care

Wrap:

Take the wrap off after 2 hours (4 hours max) and wash with luke warm water. Do not re-wrap.

For the next few days use lukewarm water and mild liquid antibacterial or antimicrobial soap to gently wash away any ointment, blood, or plasma.

All body fluids must be washed away completely.

Wash your tattooed area with liquid soap twice a day for the first two weeks.

Starting from the day of the session, thinly apply the tattoo ointment 2-3 times a day for 7-10 days.

When you feel a new layer of skin has formed, keep the tattooed site moisturized with non-scented lotion.

Saniderm:

Leave this sticker on for around 3~4 days.

On day 4~5, remove under running lukewarm water and clean tattoo with mild liquid antimicrobial soap.

Pat the area dry and apply a tattoo cream for around 1.5 weeks. After this time period use lotion to keep the tattoo moisturized.

KEEP AN EYE ON THE STICKER

Remove immediately if…

It starts turning red at the edges or if you have any other reaction.

It starts leaking. Your tattoo is prone to germs and infection if not kept clean at this point. Remove and proceed with normal aftercare for the remainder of the healing period

If it tears, make sure the tattoo remains clean and moisturized to avoid infection.

Things that may happen..

You might get an ink sac.

This is normal. Make sure that it is not leaking.

If it falls off early, proceed with normal after care instructions.

Avoid skin to skin contact with people or pets, scratching, picking, peeling, swimming, sauna, jacuzzi (soaking in water), sun, tanning, contact sports, excessive exercising, and shaving.

Try to wear loose clothing to minimize irritation on your tattoo.

Too much cream will not allow the skin to breathe and heal.

Please avoid cleaning your tattoo in unsanitary environments.

Please keep your tattoo clean and moist until it heals completely.

Drinking is fine.

The best way to make an appointment with us is through our website, email, whatsapp, instagram or coming in directly for a consult then book on the spot.

After all appointment details are set we ask that you place a non-refundable deposit to secure your date with the artist.

For custom designs we recommend contacting us at least 2 weeks to one month in advance. This give both our team and the artist breathing room to create your design.

For last minute inquiries we will most likely only be able to help you as a walk in with a small and simple design.

Some of our artists have flash art which can be seen at the studio. (Due to copyright reasons, not all designs are uploaded to the artists Instagram.)We generally do not book appointments more than 2 months out. Every artists bookings differ, however we do this to take into consideration possible tours, etc.

Walk – ins
