Aftercare

For aftercare we typically use a product like Second Skin (or Bangskin, Hypafix, Tatuderm, Saniderm, etc...). 

We advise this bandage be left on for at least 24 hours, up to 5-7 days. 

If you have a negative reaction, take the bandage off and wash the area. 

We recommend taking the bandage off in a shower, bath, or under warm water - pulling the bandage downwards, parallel to the body (as if you are pulling off a command strip). 

Wash the tattoo twice a day with unscented soap, pat the tattoo dry, then rub a small amount of unscented lotion to moisturize the tattoo. 

(In the event that any of the adhesive from the bandage is left on the tattoo - do not panic. Use coconut or olive oil, rub in small light circles.)
