Excellent question! Proper preparation enhances your tattoo results and ensures a smooth healing process. We suggest the following steps one week before your appointment:

• Hydration is key! Aim to drink at least eight ounces of water daily. This hydrates your skin, preparing it for the tattoo process.

• Moisturize the area where you’re getting your tattoo daily. Regular moisturizing prevents dryness, helping the ink settle well in your skin and fostering a smoother healing process.

• Be proactive and purchase recommended aftercare products ahead of time. Consider items like antibacterial Dial liquid soap, Tattoo Goo, or other similar ointments. Keeping paper towels handy is also a good idea.
•  

Remember, our artists are here to assist you. If you have further questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact them directly. We aim to ensure you’re fully prepared and comfortable for your tattoo appointment!

Sleeping with your fresh ink: 9 Essential tips for new tattoo care

One friend, partner, or family member is welcome to accompany you during your tattoo session.

Please note, individuals under 17, including children, aren’t allowed due to safety and legal considerations.

Our current focus is solely on delivering exceptional tattoo experiences and crafting unique, customized designs.

We currently do not provide laser tattoo removal services.

However, we specialize in transforming existing tattoos with our cover-up services.

We do!

We offer intricate cover-ups for various situations, including aged tattoos, scars, or post-surgery marks.

Proper aftercare is key for your fresh tattoo’s healing and longevity. Post-session, we provide in-depth instructions, which include keeping your tattoo clean and moisturized, avoiding excessive sunlight and water, and following specific guidelines for optimal healing. We’re here to guide you through the aftercare process and answer any questions.

Here’s a general care guide for your new tattoo:

For the first three days, clean your new tattoo every hour for ten minutes using a minimal amount of Dial Liquid Soap and water. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel, then apply a thin layer of tattoo goo or the provided ointment. Remember, the tattoo needs to breathe, so avoid over-applying.

Monitor your tattoo between cleanings. If it becomes dry, rewash and apply a very thin layer of the tattoo goo or aftercare ointment provided by your artist. Continue this routine for the next two weeks.

If your tattoo peels like a sunburn or forms scabs, don’t worry. Let them fall off naturally. A fully healed tattoo can take between 21 to 180 days.

Avoid irritating your tattoo. You may take showers, but keep them short for the first two weeks and avoid direct water hit on your tattoo. No swimming, soaking or hot tubs for at least 3 weeks. Avoid sun exposure for at least 3 weeks and use sunblock once it’s fully healed. Avoid abrasive materials, jewelry, or shoes that rub against your tattoo.

Remember, always wash your hands before touching your tattoo. If you encounter any aftercare concerns, contact your artist immediately. Following these guidelines, your tattoo will heal beautifully and you’ll be ready for more ink!

Note:. If your wrap fell off, adhere to the regular aftercare instructions above. Your new tattoo is akin to an open wound and must be treated as such.

Healing timelines vary per individual, influenced by factors such as ink type (color or black and grey) and skin sensitivity. However, a fully healed tattoo generally takes anywhere from 21 to 180 days.

Your skin undergoes four key stages before reaching complete healing:

• Stage 1: Scabbing (1-10 days)
• Stage 2: Flaking (8-21 days)
• Stage 3: The ‘Skin Cocoon’ phase (21-180 days)
• Stage 4: Maintaining Greatness – Daily care once 100% healed.

Remember, every person’s skin is different, and these stages may overlap or vary in duration. Feel free to reach out if you have any concerns during the healing process.

Aftercare essentials like Foam Antibacterial Dial Liquid Soap and Tattoo Goo are available at nearby stores.

Consult your artist for specific ointments first before you  buy.

Your health and safety come first.
