Getting a tattoo is half the work. The other half happens at home, in the first two weeks. These are the basic rules we give every client. Your own artist's advice always comes first, because every skin and every piece is different.
Day 1: foil or second skin
Leave the foil or second skin on as long as your artist indicated. Remove it gently under lukewarm water and wash your hands before you touch the tattoo.
Day 1 to 14: washing and moisturising
- Wash two to three times a day with lukewarm water and a mild, unscented soap.
- Pat dry with a clean towel or kitchen paper. Do not rub.
- Then a thin layer of the cream we recommend. Thin: the skin needs to breathe.
What to avoid
- Two to four weeks without sunbed, pool, sauna or long time in the sun.
- Do not scratch and do not pick at scabs. Itching is normal.
- No tight clothing rubbing over the tattoo.
After a month: healed check
