Please, leave your bandage on overnight and no longer than 24 hours.
Take off bandage in shower.
Rinse your new tattoo with warm soapy water.
Gently lather it with your hands, using a non-fragrance, unscented soap.
We recommend a basic glycerin or tea tree soap.
Lather tattoo with your hands until all the “icky gooey stuff” is gone.
Rinse thoroughly.
Use a clean towel to pat dry area.
When you pat dry your tattoo, it will still feel slightly moist.
Wait about ten to fifteen minutes until it is dry.
Wash your hands and apply a small amount of lotion to your tattoo.
Massage in and wipe off excess.
Your tattoo should feel like the rest of your skin.
“If it feels wetter, remove excess lotion,
